The following is a quick self-demonstrating explanation of Wiktionary entry layout, mainly to clarify which template goes where. It may omit many semi-important details. In case of any inconsistencies with WT:ELE, please rectify them.

Language

Etymology

Templates like {{compound}} or {{suffix}} go here. This section may link to other terms that the defined term derived from; use {{term}} for that. Use {{etyl}} when mentioning foreign languages the term derived from. Sometimes a word can have multiple unrelated etymologies; the etymologies will be numbered and the rest of headers will be put one level below each etymology header.

Pronunciation

Use {{IPA}}, {{X-SAMPA}}, {{audio}} here. Also {{rhymes}} and {{homophones}} may be useful. Use {{a}} to denote a specific accent.

Part of speech

Here goes the headword. The generic template is: {{head|language|part of speech|expansion of abbreviation, if any|head=headword override; use it to [[link]] [[multiple]] [[word]]s|g=gender}}. There are also specialised language headword templates, names of the form {{langcode-partofspeech}}.

1. {{context|fodiology}} Definition written in plain text, may use {{l}} or plain [[link]]s.
   • 2013, Sham Multinymous, A quoted work

     The translation of the quotation.

   Example sentence using the term.

2. {{non-gloss definition|A definition which cannot be substituted into a sentence in place of the original word; often needed for parts of speech like articles or prepositions}}
3. {{form of|kind of form|pagename|vocalised spelling|lang=code}}
4. {{inflection of|pagename|vocalised spelling|case|gender/number|gender/number|lang=code}}
5. {{conjugation of|pagename|vocalised spelling|person/gender/number|person/gender/number|tense|mood|lang=code}}
