Welcome

Welcome!

Hello, welcome to Wiktionary, and thank you for your contributions so far. Here are a few good links for newcomers:

• How to edit a page 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.
• Entry layout explained (ELE) is a detailed policy documenting how Wiktionary pages should be formatted. All entries should conform to this standard, the easiest way to do this is to copy exactly an existing page for a similar word.
• Our Criteria for inclusion (CFI) define exactly which words Wiktionary is interested in including. There is also a list of things that Wiktionary is not for a higher level overview.
• If you already have some experience with editing our sister project Wikipedia, then you may find our guide to Wikipedia users useful.
• The FAQ aims to answer most of your remaining questions, and there are several help pages that you can browse for more information.
• We have discussion rooms in which you can ask any question about Wiktionary or its entries, a glossary of our technical jargon, and some hints for dealing with the more common communication issues.

Also, please add a BabelBox to your userpage so we can help you with the languages you'll be working in.

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wiktionarian! If you have any questions, bring them to the Wiktionary:Information desk, or ask me on my talk page. If you do so, please sign your posts with four tildes: ~~~~ which automatically produces your username and the current date and time.

Swedish nouns

Hello, when adding a gender, can you please add it like this (g=c, g=n or g=nc). This prevents the entry from being in Category:Swedish nouns lacking gender. Thank you. Mglovesfun (talk) 11:11, 2 October 2012 (UTC)

Yes, of course. Thanks for the reminder. Halfdan (talk) 18:05, 2 October 2012 (UTC)

Great job / User page

Hi Halfdan. Good job you've been doing so far on Swedish entries. Just a small request. Would you put a Babel box on your User page so we are aware of your language proficiencies? If you are not sure how to use this template, take a peek at its documentation here {{Babel}}. Thanks! Jamesjiao → ^{T ◊ C} 04:25, 5 December 2012 (UTC)

Will do. Thanks, Jamesjiao. Halfdan (talk) 04:31, 5 December 2012 (UTC)

Thanks!

Your entries seem to be of really good quality for a beginner. Please note this change, because we need standard headers here. Thanks —Μετάknowledge^{discuss/deeds} 05:14, 5 December 2012 (UTC)

Thanks for the reminder, Metaknowledge. Halfdan (talk) 05:18, 5 December 2012 (UTC)

Oh yeah, and just so you know, you're welcome to add interwiki links like sv:whatever, but a robot will add them eventually anyway, and robots don't get tired like humans do :) —Μετάknowledge^{discuss/deeds} 05:28, 5 December 2012 (UTC)

Oh, okay, thanks again. Halfdan (talk) 05:29, 5 December 2012 (UTC)

Oh, and sorry to bother you even more, but does (deprecated template usage) uppsats have a plural? —Μετάknowledge^{discuss/deeds} 05:37, 5 December 2012 (UTC)

Yeah, uppsatser, I'll add the term's declension now. Halfdan (talk) 05:40, 5 December 2012 (UTC)

Optime! —Μετάknowledge^{discuss/deeds} 05:44, 5 December 2012 (UTC)

Your account will be renamed

Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Halfdan. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Halfdan~enwiktionary that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours,
Keegan Peterzell
Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation
