Thank you, Milos. Turkish Wikipedia is where my heart lies, so it is <https://tr.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Vito_Genovese>. However, the text is mostly based on Kho-related enwiki articles. Proper attribution is indeed important, and if you wish, I might be able to identify the major contributors of these articles by doing some digging. Well, at least the authors of the relevant sections.

Thank you, Vito! And, yes, inputs of this kind are definitely welcome!

I would also like that we have proper attribution for the posts. For
example, to sign it as "Language committee (written by Vito [&...])".
Vito, what's your preferred Wikimedia user page?
