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.

Georgian X-syllable words edit

Hey. Please stop adding those categories manually. It can be automatically generated from {{ka-IPA}} or something. Besides, you are flooding my watchlist and your edits have to be manually be marked as patrolled. Thanks! Dixtosa (talk) 20:47, 11 October 2020 (UTC)Reply

@Dixtosa I have been trying to make the Georgian page more accessible, and I thought I could do so by having syllable markers for the words. I apologize for any inconvenience I may have caused you, and I didn't mean to overflow your watchlist. Keep in mind that I have even tried to tweak the pronunciation table as suggested, but it still did not display the syllables. I tried everything I could do but to no avail. I hope you understand my concern about adding syllable categories for the words. Dragonman9001 (talk) 01:10, 12 October 2020 (UTC)Reply
Pings don't work unless the edit contains a new signature.
No I do not understand your concert how is adding these categories make Georgian entries more accessible? Is these categories even approved here? They seem very useless. At least the ones that count the letters. Anyways I will try to look into ka-IPA module... Dixtosa (talk) 13:39, 12 October 2020 (UTC)Reply

Some edits and for future edit

I ask you refrain from editing out things, you know not are true. Okay maybe IPA was but anyway the code

Pronunciation
IPA|ka|/ˈɑris/
hyphenation|ka|ა|რის

First of all, IPA, we don't usually put stress marks in Georgian, I don't know why, but ye it may need some tweaks here and there. Second, hyphenation is how we use hyphens to break words for a new line (Which I'm sure you knew), however Georgian has a rule that, when hyphenating, you cannot leave a single vowel with it, so it should be (C)VC that can be hyphenated, not V only, thus what you wrote is syllabification, not hyphenation. -Solarkoid (talk) 22:35, 11 October 2020 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for fixing my mistake. Dragonman9001 (talk) 11:50, 28 May 2021 (UTC)Reply
