When you add links to words, could you specify the language too? For example when linking to an Arabic word, use lang=ar (if you use {{term}}, for {{l}} it's different). You won't need to specify the script separately if you do that, because the language code includes the script automatically. —CodeCat 19:45, 22 August 2012 (UTC)
- Done! HappyMilkxD (talk) 19:55, 22 August 2012 (UTC)
- I didn't mean it like that, although your edit was (kind of) good too. I meant adding the codes for each language to the templates, like this: diff. You need to do that for all templates that need a language code, or they will link to the wrong sections and add pages to the wrong categories. —CodeCat 21:44, 22 August 2012 (UTC)
- I only added the language as you said, the other changes were made by another user. HappyMilkxD (talk) 21:49, 22 August 2012 (UTC)
- According to the history, you added the etymology. —CodeCat 21:51, 22 August 2012 (UTC)
- I meant that I changed the etymology to add the language. Or did you asked me for something else? HappyMilkxD (talk) 21:58, 22 August 2012 (UTC)
- Woops! I didn't see the link in "diff". I'm sorry, is just that I only copy-pasted the etymology from azurite, and I'm kind of bad at coding and all that. HappyMilkxD (talk) 22:02, 22 August 2012 (UTC)
- It's ok, everyone has to learn. Some editors here think it's better if templates default to English, but it can be hard for new editors to understand that they need to add a code when they use it for other languages. That's why I prefer to always specify the code, even if it's English. —CodeCat 22:46, 22 August 2012 (UTC)

We have certain standards for how to transliterate Greek around here. Please follow these (linked above). Thank you so much for your contributions! --Μετάknowledgediscuss/deeds 01:49, 29 August 2012 (UTC)
- I'm sorry, but I don't remember transliterating anything from Greek. Which entry are you refering to? HappyMilkxD (talk) 06:16, 29 August 2012 (UTC)
- Are you referring to this? This edit just moved things around that were already there. Chuck Entz (talk) 07:16, 29 August 2012 (UTC)
- My mistake. --Μετάknowledgediscuss/deeds 13:36, 29 August 2012 (UTC)
