Welcome

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!

I've included our welcome template so you have access to our policies and other information. Now for the request: please respond to concerns raised on your talk page. While I really appreciate the content you're adding, a wiki is a community and requires working with others. We need to be sure that you'll stop making mistakes once others point them out to you so we won't have to keep cleaning up after you.

I also happen to agree with CodeCat: hardcoding content that's already supplied correctly by the templates is a bad idea. If it's ever decided to change something (for whatever reason), hard-coded content will have to be changed in every entry, rather than being able to make a single change in the template or the module behind it that will simultaneously change the output in all the entries at once. That's true of the transliterations, as CodeCat mentioned, but also of categories such as Category:Cherokee verbs, which are automatically supplied by the {{head}} template.

Given the high volume and regularity of your edits and your lack of response, I may have to assume that you're running an unauthorized bot (see WT:BOT) on this account, and block it accordingly. Please don't let it come to that. Thanks! Chuck Entz (talk) 01:23, 20 August 2017 (UTC)
