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!
You can't simply remove things because the language doesn't reflect them "nowadays". Wiktionary covers the entire history of a given language: if there's evidence it was used that way at any time, we have to cover it. The way to deal with such problems is with labels: something is "obsolete" if no one would understand it or accept it in modern usage. If people only use it when they want to sound like someone from earlier times, it's "archaic". Either that or usage notes. Chuck Entz (talk) 23:32, 15 August 2021 (UTC)
Chuck Entz (talk) alright, I will not delete any information anymore, but the references should be fixed at least; moreover, the sentences in the entry are not completely correct. Eniisi Lisika (talk) 23:44, 15 August 2021 (UTC)
