Welcome edit

Hello, welcome to Wiktionary, and thank you for your contributions so far.

If you are unfamiliar with wiki-editing, take a look at Help:How to edit a page. It is a concise list of technical guidelines to the wiki format we use here: how to, for example, make text boldfaced or create hyperlinks. Feel free to practice in the sandbox. If you would like a slower introduction we have a short tutorial.

These links may help you familiarize yourself with Wiktionary:

  • Entry layout (EL) is a detailed policy on Wiktionary's page formatting; all entries must conform to it. The easiest way to start off is to copy the contents of an existing same-language entry, and then adapt it to fit the entry you are creating.
  • Check out Language considerations to find out more about how to edit for a particular language.
  • Our Criteria for Inclusion (CFI) defines exactly which words can be added to Wiktionary; the most important part is that Wiktionary only accepts words that have been in somewhat widespread use over the course of at least a year, and citations that demonstrate usage can be asked for when there is doubt.
  • If you already have some experience with editing our sister project Wikipedia, then you may find our guide for Wikipedia users useful.
  • If you have any questions, bring them to Wiktionary:Information desk or ask me on my talk page.
  • Whenever commenting on any discussion page, please sign your posts with four tildes (~~~~) which automatically produces your username and timestamp.
  • You are encouraged to add a BabelBox to your userpage to indicate your self-assessed knowledge of languages.

Enjoy your stay at Wiktionary! --BandiniRaffaele2 (talk) 18:04, 23 March 2022 (UTC)Reply

Etruscan unattested terms edit

Hello airy-zero, do you know how we act if an Etruscan term in all of its declension isn't attested?--BandiniRaffaele2 (talk) 18:11, 23 March 2022 (UTC)Reply

Given what we know about Etruscan declension, I think it makes sense to make the main page for a word its singular unmarked form, as long as it can be safely assumed. airy—zero (talk) 13:24, 24 March 2022 (UTC)Reply
Do you think we have to put 𐌂𐌀𐌍𐌋𐌀 unattested? BandiniRaffaele2 (talk) 14:07, 24 March 2022 (UTC)Reply
Oh yeah, marking it as unattested for that particular declension is a good idea. airy—zero (talk) 15:56, 24 March 2022 (UTC)Reply
