Welcome (back) to Wiktionary! One of the administrators, Metaknowledge noticed you have been adding Wolof words and we're really excited about it.
To help you get oriented on Wiktionary, I would like to offer to be a mentor if you are interested. That would basically just mean I would review the edits you make and give you an open invitation to ask any questions that you might have.
Here are some links that you might find useful:
- How to edit a page has some basics that are probably not of interest to you, but FWIW. Feel free to practice in the sandbox.
- There is also a short tutorial and a link guide.
- Entry layout explained (ELE) is a detailed policy documenting how Wiktionary pages should be formatted. All entries should conform to this standard, the easiest way to do this is to copy exactly an existing page for a similar word.
- Our Criteria for inclusion (CFI) define exactly which words Wiktionary is interested in including. There is also a list of things that Wiktionary is not for a higher level overview.
- If you already have some experience with editing our sister project Wikipedia, then you may find our guide to Wikipedia users useful.
- The FAQ aims to answer most of your remaining questions, and there are several help pages that you can browse for more information.
- We have discussion rooms in which you can ask any question about Wiktionary or its entries, a glossary of our technical jargon, and some hints for dealing with the more common communication issues.
Finally, there is a vote in progress right now that looks like it will pass, and if so, it will change the rules for Wolof so that a special template will be needed for words. The template can be used by typing {{LDL}}after the definitions of a word.
I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wiktionarian! If you have any questions, bring them to the Wiktionary:Information desk, or ask me on my talk page. If you do so, please sign your posts with four tildes: ~~~~ which automatically produces your username and the current date and time.
