Hello, Aion. I also read dictionaries for fun and I'm fairly new to Wiktionary. I agree on the 'capitalization thing'. I disagree that dictionary definitions should be longer. Longer articles should go in Wikipedia. It's easy to link from a Wiktionary definition to more information at Wikipedia.
I can't help with pronunciation, because I can't read or write those things. There's a Wiktionary:Pronunciation key . You might also want to look at the concise version of SAMPA for English sounds on Wikipedia, as well as the Wikipedia article on IPA. I can't make heads or tails of any of it. :-) Welcome. Bluelion
Bluelion, two months ago those symbols seemed like hieroglyphs to me too. They had been intriguing me for quite some time already though. So I plunged in and learned what they stand for. Basically it comes down to learning a new alphabet. The nice thing about this alphabet is that every letter in it stands for exactly one sound/phoneme. I'm still learning and I am not sure whether the IPA transcriptions I put in are always entirely correct (English is not my native language either), so it would be nice if somebody else got interested in these IPA transcriptions as well to be able to check them.

Here is an appendix I made for the IPA pronunciation keys:

Your account will be renamed[edit]
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 Aion. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Aion~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
