Welcome
editHello, 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! --Neskaya kanetsv 04:30, 23 October 2008 (UTC)
Audio
editHi, and thank you for your audio contributions. I wanted to make sure that they're labeled correctly according to our conventions. It looks like they are if you're in the U.S. The convention is language-location-word.ogg, so fr-Paris-brouhaha.ogg is the word "brohaha" pronounced in French by somebody from Paris, etc.
Do you live in the U.S.? (If so, I am curious what you think constitutes standard Spanish for the U.S.) Also, is Spanish your native language? We strongly prefer that audio recordings come from native speakers. --Dvortygirl 04:47, 23 October 2008 (UTC)
