entregar

entregarse should be a separate entry as it is spelled differently Robert Ullmann 15:12, 6 October 2007 (UTC)

That's fine by me, as long as one is logically wikilinked to the other. Feel free. —Lumbercutter 19:39, 15 November 2007 (UTC)

I've re-removed the AHD copyvios from this entry. --Connel MacKenzie 19:47, 6 October 2007 (UTC)

And since there never were any AHD copyvios in that entry, I've corrected your errors and explained them at Talk:hob. Thanks. —Lumbercutter 19:37, 15 November 2007 (UTC)

Good catch on the missing sense.

Please remember to add ===Quotations=== not <references> in the future. The citations are what make or break an entry on en.wiktionary. Not secondary sources. The template used on requests for verification to remind people not to do that is {{nosecondary}}.

Again, thank you for adding the missing sense. --Connel MacKenzie 05:39, 5 February 2008 (UTC)

Will do. I don't currently have Sutherland 1937 at hand (and won't have time in the next 6-8 weeks to chase it down!) so I can't convert my <ref> to a quotation immediately, but I will plan on coming back to it in future and supplying a specific quotation to replace the <ref>. In the meantime I guess I will leave my <ref> there at fixer just to encourage people not to delete the sense. Thanks for explaining about quotations vs <refs>! — Lumbercutter 15:43, 6 February 2008 (UTC)

Scratch that about not having time to chase the book down. Thanks to the magic of Google Book Search, I found my quotation in a trice. Added it at fixer. Thanks, — Lumbercutter 16:07, 6 February 2008 (UTC)

Just for future reference, we never use <ref> on Wiktionary. Instead the book title and author should come at the beginning or end of the quote, seperated with —. Yours Conrad.Irwin 16:09, 6 February 2008 (UTC)

But when you start a new entry by choosing the "Noun" template, part of what the template inserts into your new entry is:

"===References===

*Add verifiable references here to show where you found the word in use."

So I guess I would put the reference in that section. But you cannot do inline citations in Wiktionary? Seems like a wasted opportunity, as they are very efficient for close verification of exactly what info the {{citation}} is being asserted to support.

Oh well, I'm not trying to give any particular person a hard time; I just think that the editorial spirit of Wiktionary can be a bit procrustean toward worthwhile information in some ways. But I will go "procrustinate" my addition and simply put [em dash, author, title], so that I don't have to see it on my watchlist 3 months from now when someone deletes the entire section of useful information simply for lack of procrustitude! :-) Thanks, — Lumbercutter 03:13, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

Your account will be renamed

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 Lumbercutter. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Lumbercutter~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
