edit- use
{{trans-see}}
whenever possible. redundancy is a huge problem here. - proper use of the transitive and intransitive tags in verb phrases. "show one's ass" is not transitive itself; "show" is.
- generalise use of links to Wiktionary:Wikisaurus in entries, instead of lists of synonyms.
- clean up Category:en:Linguistics, Category:en:Phonetics, Category:en:Phonology, Category:en:Linguistic morphology. create Category:en:Syntax?

Ideas which I'm thoroughly incapable of implementing myself
edit- enable some new "Preferences"
- favorite order of grammatical cases in declension tables
- favorite ordering of senses: chronological/etymological (obsolete senses first), or practical (most common senses first)
- two versions of each entry: a linguistic one (etymology header first; uses of labels such as (ergative), etc.); a simpler one, oriented towards language learners. But they have to depend from each other; data for the simpler one automatically extracted from the linguistic?
- allow simultaneous output of transcription and transliteration
- be able to invoke individual Swadesh lists in comparative pages (Swadesh lists for families)
- is there a way to "cross" categories between them easily? How much are subcats needed?
