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.

Mayan plurals

Hello, are jaʼob and jaʼoʼob both the plural of jaʼ? Ultimateria (talk) 17:29, 21 July 2023 (UTC)

This was a mistake. I put the latter page up for deletion. (SnappyDragonPennyroyal (talk) 01:55, 22 July 2023 (UTC))

Allah's Garden

It's better to find quotations that can be securely dated, so we can determine how a term has been used over time. See Wiktionary:Quotations/Resources for good places to look. If you can't find good quotes on any of these resources, the term probably fails CFI. Ioaxxere (talk) 15:52, 11 June 2024 (UTC)

Headword Templates

Please don't create entries without them (there are CJKV Han character entries that have their own setup, but that's the only exception). The entry doesn't get formatted right, and it doesn't go in the right categories. See WT:EL for details. There's an abuse filter that tags such entries, and someone like me has to clean them up.
