Welcome Message
[edit]Welcome
[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.
Enjoy your stay at Wiktionary! --Apisite (talk) 21:45, 2 June 2022 (UTC)
Gujarati nuqta
[edit]Hello and thanks for the Gujarati contributions. The page title is intended to represent the spelling found in writing. However, nuqta diacritic is not normally used in Gujarati writing. To show the nuqta, could you use the head parameter |head= in the {{head}} template instead of using the nuqta in page titles? For example, for the entry કાકડી (kākḍī), using {{gu-noun|g=f|head=કાકડ઼ી}} would display કાકડ઼ી • (kākṛī) in the entry but allow the page title to remain as કાકડી. For page links, the nuqta form [[કાકડ઼ી]] could link to the nuqtaless page title કાકડી using Module:languages/data/2. (also notifying @Ri132) Kutchkutch (talk) 15:21, 20 May 2023 (UTC)
- User:Kutchkutch, Yes, that works, although I'm not sure how to do that on existing pages without creating some redirect problems. Chariotrider555 (talk) 16:00, 22 May 2023 (UTC)
