German

Thanks for all the country names. -Atelaes λάλει ἐμοί 15:41, 13 June 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for the welcoming. --Holger 15:48, 13 June 2008 (UTC)

Templates

You can save yourself some time and trouble by using the {{infl}} template, like this [1]. It will automatically use the page name and will categorize the entry for you. --EncycloPetey 17:22, 13 June 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for reminding me of that template. I'll use it for now wherever it fits. --Holger 17:28, 13 June 2008 (UTC)

German templates

FYI, there are also German inflection templates in Category:German inflection templates, such as {{de-noun-m}}. A downside to them is that you have to enter more information than for {{infl}}. But given you are a native German, that should be easy for you.

There is also Wiktionary:About German, but it is rudimentary at this point. --Daniel Polansky 18:31, 13 June 2008 (UTC)
