Wittiami
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 documenting how Wiktionary pages should be formatted. All entries should conform to this standard. The easiest way to start off is to copy the contents of an existing page for a similar word, and then adapt it to fit the entry you are creating.
- Our Criteria for inclusion (CFI) define exactly which words can be added to Wiktionary, though it may be a bit technical and longwinded. 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.
- The FAQ aims to answer most of your remaining questions, and there are several help pages that you can browse for more information.
- A glossary of our technical jargon, and some hints for dealing with the more common communication issues.
- If you have anything to ask about or suggest, we have several discussion rooms. Feel free to ask any other editors in person if you have any problems or question, by posting a message on their talk page.
You are encouraged to add a BabelBox to your userpage. This shows which languages you know, so other editors know which languages you'll be working on, and what they can ask you for help with.
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.

/a/ edit
Hi, please be sure to use the Latin a, not the Cyrillic а, in the titles of rhyme pages. I've moved Rhymes:Russian/аr (with the Cyrillic letter) to Rhymes:Russian/ar (with the Latin letter), but there seem to be a lot of such pages. Thanks! —Mahāgaja · talk 21:17, 25 February 2019 (UTC)
-a is not a rhyme in Russian edit
Russian rhymes require a stressed vowel with at least one consonant. Вода́ rhymes with когда́ (because the rhyme is -dá), лиса́ rhymes with коса́ (because the rhyme is -sá), but вода́ does not rhyme with лиса́. Your rhymes like Rhymes:Russian/a, Rhymes:Russian/ɛ, etc. need to be deleted.
For future, it's best discuss massive undertakings like adding Russian rhymes in Wiktionary talk:About Russian before starting. Otherwise, you might discover that you were wasting your time doing something with manual clicks that could be automated by a bot, or even doing the wrong thing and then wasting other people's time because they would be forced to clean up the mistakes.
