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! ←₰-→ Lingo Bingo Dingo (talk) 12:43, 1 March 2018 (UTC)Reply

Headwords and language codes edit

Please remember to add headwords to every part-of-speech section that you create. There aren't a lot of dedicated headword templates for Rusyn (with the exception of {{rue-noun}}), so you can use {{head|rue}} instead. Also ensure that you change the language code, usually the first code, to rue when you copy etymologies from other languages. Happy editing. ←₰-→ Lingo Bingo Dingo (talk) 12:43, 1 March 2018 (UTC)Reply

Rusyn edit

Hello, and thanks for your recent Rusyn additions. A few remarks:

  • As the above editor said, please don't forget to add the headword templates to your new entries; it's very important for categorisation purposes. See diff and diff for example.
  • Could you add sources/references, or (even better) links to online dictionaries? It's very useful for smaller and lesser-known languages.
  • Could you add the stress whenever possible?

Thanks a lot, and please keep up the good work. --Per utramque cavernam (talk) 12:46, 1 March 2018 (UTC)Reply

Rusyn language code is rue, please change "ru" to "rue" edit

Hi,

Don't forget to use the language code "rue" on Rusyn entries, e.g. in бі́лый (bílŷj) you used {{inh|ru|sla-pro|*bělъ}} and please add word accents, if known. --Anatoli T. (обсудить/вклад)

Rusyn муха edit

Hi,

Where did you get the accent (муха́) from? It seems it was copied from Bulgarian. --Anatoli T. (обсудить/вклад) 22:05, 24 March 2020 (UTC)Reply
