For infrequently updated information about me, see my page on English Wikipedia.

Here on Wiktionary, I mainly edit Ancient Greek entries. I have a decent grasp of Latin too, and some knowledge of Old English. I can read the Arabic alphabet and have a decent understanding of the morphology. I am quite fascinated by historical phonology and wish there were more phonological information in etymology sections on Wiktionary, to make it less of a mystery how words have changed form.

I have a good understanding of much of our module system, so I often fix bugs. I have files of entry names for each language and of instances of a fair number of templates from the dump, so I can quickly search templates and entry names by request.

I operate User:ToilBot.

JavaScript

I've created a number of functions using TemplateScript to perform tedious editing tasks with a single click, like adding {{non-gloss definition}} or {{subst:chars|grc}}, updating Ancient Greek conjugation tables, or converting lists of derived or related terms to the templates {{der3}} and {{rel3}}. These can be found here.

Other scripts:

• contributionsTab.js: add a Contributions tab to pages in the User and User talk namespaces
• cleanup.js: add buttons above the textbox to perform tedious editing tasks and add an edit summary
• phonemicGreekTransliteration.js: change Modern Greek transliteration to be more phonemic
• reconstructedCategories.js: replace Reconstructed:language name/ with an asterisk in category pages
• scriptRecognition.js and combiningCharacters.js: script recognition and combining character recognition functions based on Module:Unicode data (to be used by other JavaScript scripts)
• templateParser.js: parse a template into a JavaScript object

Lua

• User:Erutuon/language stuff: random information about Wiktionary's languages and scripts
• Module on Greek Wikisource to search for words in literary works hosted there

Rust

I wrote Rust programs available on GitHub, one with subcommands for quickly grabbing all instances of a set of templates from the dump and for generating information on headers used in entries (for the latter, see below), and the other for processing pages in the dump with a Lua script. Ask on my talk page if you want lists of particular templates, or all instances of a template that contain particular text.

Lists

• forms used more than twice in the Odyssey; forms used twice and forms used once
• Classical Greek prose wordlist
• Thucydides wordlist
• fun Epic dative plurals
• recent edits in Ancient Greek entries

Dump-related

• Mixed-script titles: Latin and Cyrillic, Latin and Greek
• titles with letters in alphabetical order
• link templates in various languages with incorrect characters
• Ancient Greek words in which the initial vowel is not marked with smooth or rough breathing

Mainspace headers

• non-language headers
  • pages with possibly incorrect mainspace headers
    generated by a Rust program; contains everything not a language name or on a whitelist or in a Hebrew or Arabic root entry
• language headers

Pronunciation

I speak a weirdly simplified variety of American English with a split based on Canadian raising and no distinction between the "short i" vowel and schwa.

/aj ˈspik ə ˈwiɹdly ˈsəmpləfajd vəˈrajəti əv əˈmeɹəkən ˈiŋɡləʃ wəθ ə ˈsplət best an kəˈnediən ˈɹeziŋ ənd ˈno dəˈstiŋkʃən biˈtwin ðə ʃort ˈaj ˈvawəl ənd ʃwa ‖/

Un-lexicographical stuff

My brother and I created a 24-hour clock that shows the path of the sun on any day at any location around the world. See NaturalClock.net. (It needs a lot of work on its user experience.)
