Hi Avriette,

Welcome to en.wiktionary! I would love to see you add some pictures to Wiktionary as well. Polyglot 01:10, 12 Feb 2005 (UTC)

SSTH[edit]

discussion moved from talk:Ssth, just before I delete it (as the article is already gone.)

Talk:Ssth

see SSTH. my mistake. Avriette Sun Feb 20 02:55:58 GMT 2005

Rather than delete, wouldn't a redirect be better in a case like this? e.g. replace article text with #REDIRECT SSTH ? --Connel MacKenzie 05:50, 20 Feb 2005 (UTC)
Sorta. The problem was I was encountering what they on #wikipedia (freenode) called an interwiki bug, and that it was a nasty one, and not going to be fixed. The links in the wikipedia which point at SSTH now point at SSTH, and the article is SSTH. I see no reason for a redir on Ssth. Additionally, Ssth is incorrect. Trust me, there aren't a lot of mentions of it in the 'pedia. By the by, thanks for showing me the {acronym} trick. Still new to the wiktionary. Avriette Mon Feb 21 03:19:08 GMT 2005
OK. I've been sorta redirect-happy lately. But you are absolutely right; they are too different to justify a redirect.
I'm deleteing the talk page, to match the fact that the article it talks of no longer exists.
Use of templates in headings still has some residual controversy. For minor headings, I love 'em.

Recent images uploaded - Thanks![edit]

Alex,

Yes, Wiktionary is downright quiet compared to 'pedia. That's one of the main things I like about it; on Wikipedia I can be sure I'll have a hundred people update the slightest entry I make. Here on Wiktionary, there is tons still to be done, so on the occasions I do run into horrid controversy, I can put it on the back-burner and continue with productive stuff.

Only two or three users have really bothered with uploading images so far (here.) As long as it's not goatse, they are welcome contributions. A year from now we may have perfectionists asking for more and better, but right now, I'd say just go for it.
