Welcome

[edit]

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)TCM 18:40, 5 June 2024 (UTC)Reply

"Debating whether or not to add more inflections"

[edit]

Not as stubs, please. If you get a handle on pronunciation templates and can add references (references citing the lemma are usually enough), then it might make sense, but I'm not sure it's worth its time, honestly. Thadh (talk) 14:38, 1 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

Noted, never see anything besides “[case] of [word]” on most inflected entries so I wasn’t sure to add pronunciation or not Aoscf77 (talk) 15:29, 1 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
Most of them are created automatically as stubs, which is about as useful as not creating them at all. Thadh (talk) 15:56, 1 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
Makes sense, no wonder whenever I use the random entry page and it’s an inflection it’s always a stub Aoscf77 (talk) 15:59, 1 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
