message: I noticed two formatting issues in this article. One is lack of language tagging of most of the Khmer words in the article. The other is a broken list in the section Traditional games (): It contains what looks like a bulletted list with paragraphs between the elements. Either turn the bulletted lines into headings or turn all but the first paragraph of it into a definition list. For consistency with the The three days of the new year section, I lean slightly more towards the heading approach, but a definition list would work too.
I'm showing the definition list approach here because the heading approach would create subsections on this talk page. It can be turned into the heading approach by find-replacing a newline and a semicolon with a newline and three equal signs and then find-replacing a newline and a colon with three equal signs and a newline.

:A game played especially on the first nightfall of the Khmer New Year by two groups of boys and girls. Ten or 20 people comprise each group, standing in two rows opposite each other. One group throws the  to the other group. When it is caught, it will be rapidly thrown back to the first group. If someone is hit by the , the whole group must dance to get the  back while the other group sings to the dance.

:A game played by imitating a hen as she protects her chicks from a crow. Adults typically play this game on the night of the first New Year's Day. Participants usually appoint a strong player to play the hen who protects "her" chicks, while another person is picked to be the "crow". While both sides sing a song of bargaining, the crow tries to catch as many chicks as possible as they hide behind the hen.

:The simple style consists of just throwing the  to hit the target . The extended style adds five more stages in addition to the throwing stage. Both styles end with a penalty called Jours-activity that the winning team members get to perform on the losing team members. The Jours-activity is performed by using the  the hit the knees of the losing team.

:A game played by a group of children sitting in a circle. Someone holding a  (Cambodian towel) that is twisted into a round shape walks around the circle while singing a song. The person walking secretly tries to place the  behind one of the children. If that chosen child realizes what is happening, he or she must pick up the  and beat the person sitting next to him or her.

:A game played by two children in rural or urban areas during their leisure time. Ten holes are dug in the shape of an oval into a board in the ground. The game is played with 42 small beads, stones or fruit seeds. Before starting the game, five beads are put into each of the two holes located at the tip of the board. Four beads are placed in each of the remaining eight holes. The first player takes all the beads from any hole and drops them one by one in the other holes. He or she must repeat this process until they have dropped the last bead into a hole that lies besides any empty one. Then they must take all the beads in the hole that follows the empty one. At this point, the second player may have his turn. The game ends when all the holes are empty. The player with the greatest number of beads wins the game. It is possibly similar to .
Language tagging is a bit harder. Basically you need to wrap  around everything in Khmer that isn't already tagged with either lang or lang-km. That's done in the proposed version of the traditional games section above. And here's a fix for the other headings:
*  ()
*  ()
*  ()
* Traditional games ()
*  ()
Here are some other places to tag. You probably want to copy the wikicode used here so that italics get applied to the text written in the Latin alphabet but not those in the Khmer script. Also note that some words are in Sanskrit, so those have the language code set to "sa".
* In the lead section
** 
* In the infobox
** 
** 
* In subsections of The three days of the new year. There's one of these in each subsection:
** 
** 
**  ()
**  ()
* in the New Year's customs section:
**  ()
* in the Angkor Sangran section

Sorry if this is a lot of stuff to change. I've tried to keep these instructions easy to follow, but they are a bit long. Pretended leer {talk} 12:56, 22 October 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: Hi . I'm going to suggest you wait two days until the extended protection lapses and do this all yourself, it's a lot and I don't want to mess it up.  I have asked the protecting admin if they would reduce the protection level to semi-protection which would allow you to make the edit yourself before then. Fish+Karate 13:34, 22 October 2018 (UTC)

replies: text: , The best thing would be for you to write your article as a draft, i.e. Draft:Khmer New Year.  Once you think it's ready, submit it for review.  It's a lot easier for people to evaluate something once it's in draft form.    If it passes review, it can get moved into mainspace at that time.  If not, at least you'll get feedback on what needs to be improved. -- RoySmith (talk) 22:12, 7 January 2021 (UTC)

text: There might also be no need to delete this article and doing so might actually bad idea because it basically would remove any record of the contributions made to it by others over the years. We try to improve Wikipedia articles per :WP:PRESERVE whenever possible and only resort to deletion only when there's pretty much no way to fix an article. A separate article related to the  may be warranted, but that doesn't mean that this article needs to be deleted. -- Marchjuly (talk) 22:49, 7 January 2021 (UTC)
