User talk:Geshiza

Welcome

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.

Enjoy your stay at Wiktionary! —Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 23:34, 9 March 2024 (UTC)

Please hold on!

@Geshiza Thank you for making entries, however I must ask you to temporarily wait before adding more entries! You didn't do anything wrong it's just that:

• We do yet not support Eastern Geshiza as a language code, this causes background technical issues that require a lot of background maintenance!! Please make a post in Requests for moves asking for a code to be created.
• We use templates, not just for ease, but for maintenance, categorization and searching (for terms). Once a code for Eastern Geshiza is created I — or someone else — can teach you basics of how to use templates (we can practice with another language if you want to learn right now). But not using templates causes issues for other editors (and in extreme causes can lead to you being blocked!) so we need to teach you how to some basic ones.

So again, due to the issues mentioned above, I must ask that you please temporarily pause editing until these issues are resolved. Once they are resolved, you'll be able to get back to making as many entries as you want :). - سَمِیر | Sameer (^{مشارکت‌ها} · ^بحث) 00:05, 10 March 2024 (UTC)
