We don't normally do redirects unlike Wikipedia. Here are some guidelines for redirects: WT:REDIR Jamesjiao → ^{T ◊ C} 08:32, 24 January 2011 (UTC)

Welcome

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!

"wearable heater"

And now, to keep the balance of the Force, a reprimand. Languages are huge, so to keep the dictionary maintainable, we do not define every possible combination of words. Multi-word phrases must satisfy an idiomaticity criterion. "wearable technology" and "wearable heater" seem to me like sum-of-parts terms. Also, the link you gave for the latter term in the "References" section is not a reference at all. I have removed it. References are for things relevant to a dictionary, like etymologies.

It can be used like a germ for a encyclopedic article. Wearable heaters are important for people with problems in the hands (illness) as "cool hands" illness (glove heaters). Thanks in advance. --Diamondland (talk) 17:06, 1 February 2014 (UTC)
