Welcome!

Hello, welcome to Wiktionary, and thank you for your contribution so far. Here are a few good links for newcomers:

  • How to edit a page 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.
  • Entry layout explained (ELE) is a detailed policy documenting how Wiktionary pages should be formatted. All entries should conform to this standard, the easiest way to do this is to copy exactly an existing page for a similar word.
  • Our Criteria for inclusion (CFI) define exactly which words Wiktionary is interested in including. There is also a list of things that Wiktionary is not for a higher level overview.
  • The FAQ aims to answer most of your remaining questions, and there are several help pages that you can browse for more information.
  • We have discussion rooms in which you can ask any question about Wiktionary or its entries, a glossary of our technical jargon, and some hints for dealing with the more common communication issues.

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wiktionarian! If you have any questions, bring them to the Wiktionary:Information desk, or ask me on my talk page. If you do so, please sign your posts with four tildes: ~~~~ which automatically produces your username and the current date and time.

Again, welcome! — Carolina wren discussió 22:51, 28 October 2009 (UTC)Reply

Query about editing

edit

Hi, I'm one of the authors of the translation-adder. It has a bug which you just triggered [1] I was wondering if you had time to tell me exactly what sequence of actions you went through making that edit so I can try and isolate the cause and ultimately fix it (if you notice, the edit summary is blank, which it shouldn't be - while it's not a huge problem in itself it might indicate a more severe problem in the program). Thanks in advance. Conrad.Irwin 17:38, 19 November 2009 (UTC)Reply

Ok, thank you, and sorry that it made a mess for you; it's likely to be my fault. Conrad.Irwin 17:46, 19 November 2009 (UTC)Reply

Catalan

edit

It would be cool if you could add Catalan words as well as translation. I'll gladly provide pointers if you're unsure of syntax. Mglovesfun (talk) 16:58, 7 April 2010 (UTC)Reply

I'm also trying to cleanup Calana adjectives, I left a message on ca:La Taverna about epicene adjectives like global or mundial. Can you help, please? Mglovesfun (talk) 11:56, 25 April 2010 (UTC)Reply

Adjective genders

edit

We don't normally add genders and other forms of adjectives in translations. So can you please add only the base form? Thank you. —CodeCat 15:32, 24 November 2012 (UTC)Reply
