Comast

Hello, and welcome to Wiktionary! I was just looking around for citations for your new entry comast and was having trouble finding any. This is due to a number of unfortunate things, not the least of which is that it is a common typo for "Comcast", but I was wondering if you could provide a citation or two from whereever you found it, as I can't seem to find it in any dictionary I have access to, nor can I find a solid citation for the sense that you have indicated. I did come across a sense which indicated that it was a feature of land (something coastal) and perhaps they are related somehow. The discussion and research will take place here if you would like to tell us about how you came across the term. Again, welcome! - TheDaveRoss 15:56, 17 June 2006 (UTC)

By the way, we wikify etymons here. Have a look at how I have reformatted chthonian. Widsith 15:52, 19 June 2006 (UTC)

redirects

Please remember that spelling is the most important lookup factor in a dictionary. We list words here, not concepts. In general, that means we very rarely use redirects (unlike Wikipedia.) --Connel MacKenzie 23:39, 5 October 2006 (UTC)

• OK. I can see why you deleted the externeity entry, since all I had there was a REDIRECT. But why did you delete the externity entry? Isokrates 16:16, 10 October 2006 (UTC)

  Okay, it's listed on WT:RfV if you're interested. DAVilla 19:10, 10 October 2006 (UTC)

Your account will be renamed

Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Isokrates. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Isokrates~enwiktionary that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours,
Keegan Peterzell
Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation
