Notes
[edit]- Total points: 4152
- Top single entries: a 41, estava 25, para 25
- All words listed are in Portuguese, except Translingual punctuation and random languages from opuses of other players.
- The Portuguese word pelo was defined as a contraction of "por o" translated as "for the". I've added a new definition, which is also a contraction of "por o", with a different translation. So I'm claiming 5 points for the new definition.
- The Portuguese word seu was generically defined as a "third-person singular possessive pronoun". I've added a more detailed subdefinition and didn't claim points for it. Similarly, anytime when I subdivide definitions, I don't claim points for them. Another example is sujo, which was defined as dirty but may mean more precisely either "unclean" or "obscene".
Discussion
[edit]- The English translation are pretty crappy ;p. --Rising Sun talk? contributions 16:47, 2 April 2010 (UTC)
- Compared to what? --Daniel. 16:59, 2 April 2010 (UTC)
- Compared to the original. But don't worry - I'll copy-edit some translations. And will not dock points. --Rising Sun talk? contributions 17:01, 2 April 2010 (UTC)
- All right. I couldn't aim for original-based English flawlessness anyway. Thanks for copy-editing my translations. --Daniel. 17:19, 2 April 2010 (UTC)

- I don't get it. That only adds up to 1200 or so (1195 I got, quickly in my head though). Ƿidsiþ 06:50, 5 April 2010 (UTC)
- Right. 1195 and counting. --Daniel. 14:29, 5 April 2010 (UTC)
- I believe the "microenvironments" quote you "stole" from me violates the rules. I can't score using the same quote for two forms of the same word, so it doesn't seem right that anyone else could either. --EncycloPetey 04:36, 8 April 2010 (UTC)
- Hmm, right! Thanks for pointing this rule violation; I should not get points from that quote indeed. Since I edited the list to remove them, I believe the problem is solved. --Daniel. 04:54, 8 April 2010 (UTC)
- I've removed the quote for the sake of this dictionary's integrity, but you can still claim the points ;p --Rising Sun talk? contributions 10:06, 12 April 2010 (UTC)
- I would not add that quote to the English entry the if I considered it harmful to Wiktionary's integrity. "the party" displays well the meaning of a definite article, so I don't actually see a reason to remove it other than your opinion of a "poor choice". But I don't see many other choosable quotes at that entry. --Daniel. 10:21, 12 April 2010 (UTC)
