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 explained (ELE) is a detailed policy documenting how Wiktionary pages should be formatted. All entries should conform to this standard. The easiest way to start off is to copy the contents of an existing page for a similar word, and then adapt it to fit the entry you are creating.
• Our Criteria for inclusion (CFI) define exactly which words can be added to Wiktionary, though it may be a bit technical and longwinded. 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.
• The FAQ aims to answer most of your remaining questions, and there are several help pages that you can browse for more information.
• A glossary of our technical jargon, and some hints for dealing with the more common communication issues.
• If you have anything to ask about or suggest, we have several discussion rooms. Feel free to ask any other editors in person if you have any problems or question, by posting a message on their talk page.

You are encouraged to add a BabelBox to your userpage. This shows which languages you know, so other editors know which languages you'll be working on, and what they can ask you for help with.

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.

Again, welcome! --biblbroks_{дискашн} 19:04, 6 June 2015 (UTC)

Hi. May I ask you what is your proficiency in this language? I'm curious because I'm not sure if the phrase has the meaning of (deprecated template usage) different kettle of fish. I think I've encountered non-negative uses of it, but since it's relatively new to me I would like to know better. It definitely doesn't look like it describes a situation, but rather a different topic, subject, or issue. Also, the phrase different kettle of fish is completely new to me actually, and as it appears to me it can also have non-negative connotation (because of the "and which is not necessarily unfavorable" adjunction in its definition) I'm really confounded here. Moreover, since the term lists (deprecated template usage) can of worms as a synonym for the "different situation" meaning. I'll try sorting this out elsewhere also, but anyway, thanks for your contributions. Hope you like it here. Cheers, --biblbroks_{дискашн} 19:04, 6 June 2015 (UTC)

• Hi. I'm blocked, so I can't edit any page, unfortunately. I don't speak Serbo-Croatian either. Just that different kettle of fish seemed to fit the idiom in Serbian. --IdotIdotI (talk) 10:36, 7 June 2015 (UTC)
  • I'm sorry for your block. Anyway, the horse of a different color idiom appears to fit better. At least in my opinion. So, I'll change it. All the best, --biblbroks_{дискашн} 09:23, 23 June 2015 (UTC)
