Hello - he he he

Hello to you to. But no he he he. --Baryon 16:32, 23 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Hi Baryon,

I've changed the format of your recent entries - see fusée, for example. Here's why:

  • Translations of related terms must go at the entry itself. Putting them in the related terms section means that the translations end up in two places and can become inconsistent with one another. For example, "ski trousers" is not the primary translation of "fuseau" (this is "spindle") nor is it the only meaning.
  • There is no "Unrelated terms" section; if you feel that a user might confuse two terms, then it is better to list these in a "See also" section. Apparently, "fuseau" is related to "fusée" as both these terms mean "spindle".

Could you work to this format, please? It helps keep Wiktionary consistent and more useful. Thanks. — Paul G 11:06, 31 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Sure. Thanks. I was trying to keep to the standard formatting, but those things must have escaped me. --Baryon 17:39, 31 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there. I don't know any German, but thought only nouns were capitalized - should it be lebhaft? SemperBlotto 21:17, 26 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Nouns are always capitalized in German, but lebhaft could well be at the beginning of a sentence. Does it matter that it has a capital letter? --Baryon 21:19, 26 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I changed the subtitle ("headword") underneath the 'Adjective' header. --Baryon 21:20, 26 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
And I have moved the word to lowercase version. SemperBlotto 21:22, 26 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
And I thank you. :D --Baryon 21:23, 26 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
