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.

Mistakes[edit]

You are making several formatting mistakes in every page you create. See the changes I made to this page: diff. Please familiarize yourself with the existing format before making new pages. Ultimateria (talk) 04:10, 20 December 2023 (UTC)Reply

Colons in headings[edit]

Please don't use them. Check WT:LAYOUT if you need more info on entries. Theknightwho (talk) 22:31, 21 December 2023 (UTC)Reply

Blank line before first heading[edit]

Hi - I can see that you're still creating entries with this, even though I just set a filter to warn users not to do this. Please don't ignore it. Theknightwho (talk) 22:44, 21 December 2023 (UTC)Reply

@Loukus999 Please stop doing this. Theknightwho (talk) 23:58, 21 December 2023 (UTC)Reply

Errors[edit]

Hi. You are creating countless Egyptian entires with bad transliterations, nonsensical descendants sections (words cannot be descendants of symbols), incomplete definitions (as at 𓀟), references with no relevance to the symbol at hand, and countless other problems. Please either put in the necessary effort to do things right or stop. For each of these entries, it will take much more effort to fix all the mistakes in them than just to recreate them from scratch, so as things stand all of these entries are likely to be simply deleted, unless you start going through the ones you've already made and fixing your mistakes. Thanks. — Vorziblix (talk · contribs) 09:38, 24 December 2023 (UTC)Reply
