I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wiktionarian! By the way, you can sign your name on Talk (discussion) and vote pages using four tildes, like this: ~~~~, which automatically produces your name and the current date. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to one of the discussion rooms or ask me on my Talk page. Again, welcome! --EncycloPetey 22:26, 25 August 2008 (UTC)
Should this be capitalized or lower-case? The singular is capitalized at Krugerrand, but the plural you created begins with a lower-case letter. --EncycloPetey 22:26, 25 August 2008 (UTC)
This should be capitalized. I am new and don't know how to change the capitalization of an entry. Mgrand 23:10, 25 August 2008 (UTC)
- One way to do it is to move the page if you find you have created it at the wrong name. I have added the "noun" template to Krugerrand, and you may create the plural using that link. --EncycloPetey 01:51, 27 August 2008 (UTC)
This entry does not identify the language or part of speech. These two headers must be present on every entry. --EncycloPetey 01:50, 27 August 2008 (UTC)
This, and others, do not have a ==language== or ===part of speech=== entry. They will all get deleted if you don't fix them. SemperBlotto 07:24, 27 August 2008 (UTC)
Definition line does not start with a #.
You really do need to read those welcome links. SemperBlotto 07:26, 27 August 2008 (UTC)
Redirects
[edit]Wiktionary does not create redirects for the plural form of a word to the singular form of a word. If you continue to do this, it will result in a block. Thanks. --Neskaya talk 01:28, 24 September 2008 (UTC)
Nice entries
[edit]I see you've recently started creating a bunch of entries. I especially appreciate the well-formatted quotes at stipeless and other entries. Just make sure your quotes are ordered so that more recent ones are at the bottom. Tip: I recommend looking for book quotes at archive.org, since it has full-page view and shows you print editions rather than ebooks. I hope you keep it up!
