There is no simple automatic way to do this, unfortunately. The only way is to fix them all manually...

Hi CodeCat, I brought the subject to the attention of info-en@wiktionary.org just an hour ago, if at all that is a proper way. There also seem to be more knowledgeable people behind Wiktionary, but the message and communication system itself of Wiktionary deems rather intricate to me. One may write on someone's Talk page, messages do sometimes come through email, message pop up after clicking a "Thanks"-button or similar. I know I got lost there. So, yes, manually would be my way. It reminds me of all those monks copying book after book by hand in medieval monasteries. I will not, however, change all entries one after another. I may proceed on a "when encountered" basis.

I am the one reading your email message at the moment, but I think local talk pages are a better place now you understand how the system works. At the helpdesk we mainly help newbies to find their way at the Wiki.

After reading a little on your User page, I got impressed with what you seem to be able of. Would you be a person that could (invoke) help if I told you that a major struggle for me is the lack of easy and clear links on a particular page to * all * relevant templates and other structures that might apply to that page, and in such a way that clicking or opening them does not close the page that one is working on? Until now, I look around for an example on the page itself or on a similar page, and then copy it, hoping it will work properly without irritating anyone, like I managed to do with you ;-) on that languages-and-scripts issue. Btw your mother tongue is also mine, but I suppose we should write in English here, should we not?
