blog

We prefer definitions to be written as such, and not as encylcopedic content. Origin of a word, cultural significance, and daily operation of a blog are not part of the definition. --EncycloPetey 22:16, 19 June 2009 (UTC)

Hi. I reverted your changes to SMS because they were too specific. AIUI, SMSes are not necessarily limited to 160 characters — it depends on the network etc. — nor are they always sent directly to "another cell phone or mobile device". Equinox ◑ 00:25, 20 June 2009 (UTC)

welcome

Here is the templated welcome message, with useful links that may help you get started:

Welcome!

Hello, welcome to Wiktionary, and thank you for your contribution so far. Here are a few good links for newcomers:

• How to edit a page 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.
• Entry layout explained (ELE) is a detailed policy documenting how Wiktionary pages should be formatted. All entries should conform to this standard, the easiest way to do this is to copy exactly an existing page for a similar word.
• Our Criteria for inclusion (CFI) define exactly which words Wiktionary is interested in including, there is also a list of things that Wiktionary is not for a higher level overview.
• The FAQ aim to answer most of your remaining questions, and there are several help pages that you can browse for more information.
• We have discussion rooms in which you can ask any question about Wiktionary or its entries, a glossary of our technical jargon, and some hints for dealing with the more common communication issues.

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wiktionarian! If you have any questions, bring them to the Wiktionary:Information desk, or ask me on my talk page. If you do so, please sign your posts with four tildes: ~~~~ which automatically produces your username and the current date and time.

Again, welcome! --EncycloPetey 00:47, 20 June 2009 (UTC)

PS - You may also find the pages for (deprecated template usage) parrot and (deprecated template usage) listen helpful. They are some of our most fully fleshed out pages, and so demonstrate a lot of basic formatting. In case you'd like to help with Spanish, see Wiktionary:About Spanish, which has additional information that doesn't apply to English entries. --EncycloPetey 00:47, 20 June 2009 (UTC)
