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! Equinox 19:15, 14 October 2017 (UTC)Reply

Feeding bots edit

Hey. Thanks for work on Spanish. If you want to feed Spanish bots, the best place is at WT:FSB. It's the subpage of a very awesome user. --Spreaderofwords (talk) 12:47, 22 November 2017 (UTC)Reply

Speaking of the competition, patrolling your contributions has been my way of making up for my illegal entry. --Lo Ximiendo (talk) 00:51, 18 December 2017 (UTC)Reply
It's a worthy penance. --Gente como tú (talk) 08:51, 19 December 2017 (UTC)Reply
Also, will there ever be another December competition? --Lo Ximiendo (talk) 01:33, 21 December 2017 (UTC)Reply
There have been before. See [[Category:Wiktionary fun stuff]]. Nloveladyallen (talk) 23:10, 21 December 2017 (UTC)Reply
