[edit]Hello, welcome to Wiktionary, and thank you for your contributions so far.
If you are unfamiliar with wiki-editing, take a look at Help:How to edit a page. It is a concise list of technical guidelines to the wiki format we use here: how to, for example, make text boldfaced or create hyperlinks. Feel free to practice in the sandbox. If you would like a slower introduction we have a short tutorial.
These links may help you familiarize yourself with Wiktionary:
- Entry layout (EL) is a detailed policy on Wiktionary's page formatting; all entries must conform to it. The easiest way to start off is to copy the contents of an existing same-language entry, and then adapt it to fit the entry you are creating.
- Check out Language considerations to find out more about how to edit for a particular language.
- Our Criteria for Inclusion (CFI) defines exactly which words can be added to Wiktionary; the most important part is that Wiktionary only accepts words that have been in somewhat widespread use over the course of at least a year, and citations that demonstrate usage can be asked for when there is doubt.
- If you already have some experience with editing our sister project Wikipedia, then you may find our guide for Wikipedia users useful.
- If you have any questions, bring them to Wiktionary:Information desk or ask me on my talk page.
- Whenever commenting on any discussion page, please sign your posts with four tildes (
~~~~
) which automatically produces your username and timestamp. - You are encouraged to add a BabelBox to your userpage to indicate your self-assessed knowledge of languages.

Are you relying on Wikipedia?
[edit]If so, don't. It's not a guarantee that the name is used in the real world. —Suzukaze-c (talk) 22:07, 3 November 2021 (UTC)
Requests for pronunciation in Breton entries
[edit]Here's one category to follow: Category:Requests for pronunciation in Breton entries --Apisite (talk) 10:14, 5 December 2021 (UTC)
- Another one: Category:Requests for gender in Breton entries
- Both Categories were added to by looking up the section "Oldest pages ordered by last edit" at any category of Breton lemmas. --Apisite (talk) 08:24, 6 December 2021 (UTC)
Towns and townships in Italy
[edit]It seems like these are all communes. Is there a distinction between them? Please use {{ping}}
if you respond here. Thanks. —Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 05:12, 24 January 2022 (UTC)
Hey. Just wanted to let you know that I created this template (and category) now because I remember that you were also supportive of this idea. When the spelling is based on leet speek, I think we should additionally use {{lb|en|leet}}
in front of this template. — Fytcha〈 T | L | C 〉 14:03, 27 October 2022 (UTC)
Adding entries for your citations pages
[edit]Hi, I noticed that you often long create citation pages but never create the entry, even when the cites would pass CFI (such as Citations:DOTP). Would you mind if I stalked your contributions and added all of the missing entries? Or, at least, just the ones passing CFI. Ioaxxere (talk) 23:59, 17 November 2022 (UTC)
Islamotard
[edit]Does it pass now? I put 3 quotations on the separate page but I dunno if they're valid. Gammartek (talk) 12:28, 28 March 2024 (UTC)
Ancient Greek pronunciations
[edit]Hi, when using {{grc-IPA}}
, please remember to add a parameter indicating whether α ι υ are long or short (outside of diphthongs). Thanks! —Mahāgaja · talk 15:09, 21 April 2024 (UTC)
Unattested Gothic forms
[edit]Hi, please refrain from adding unattested Gothic word forms such as 𐌰𐌽𐌳𐌰𐍅𐌹𐌶𐌽𐌴𐌹𐍃; the convention for Gothic, as with other poorly-attested dead languages, is to add only attested word-forms (see WT:AGOT for more). — Mnemosientje (t · c) 11:37, 17 May 2024 (UTC)

[edit]Well...?! I'm clearly flirting with you, that's why you wrote to me, didn't you, naughty boy? Don't leave me without an answer... Boys are so dumb and weird sometimes jeez 🙄🙄🙄 Mr. Qtaz (talk) 06:30, 1 June 2024 (UTC)
Ingrian inflections
[edit]Don't. You obviously don't know what you're doing. I have to fix every single one now because you just assumed the IPA template would work. Thadh (talk) 20:55, 2 June 2024 (UTC)
