Welcome![edit]

Welcome!

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 documenting how Wiktionary pages should be formatted. All entries should conform to this standard. The easiest way to start off is to copy the contents of an existing page for a similar word, and then adapt it to fit the entry you are creating.
  • Our Criteria for inclusion (CFI) define exactly which words can be added to Wiktionary, though it may be a bit technical and longwinded. 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.
  • The FAQ aims to answer most of your remaining questions, and there are several help pages that you can browse for more information.
  • A glossary of our technical jargon, and some hints for dealing with the more common communication issues.
  • If you have anything to ask about or suggest, we have several discussion rooms. Feel free to ask any other editors in person if you have any problems or question, by posting a message on their talk page.

You are encouraged to add a BabelBox to your userpage. This shows which languages you know, so other editors know which languages you'll be working on, and what they can ask you for help with.

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! — justin(r)leung (t...) | c=› } 16:39, 9 October 2019 (UTC)Reply

Signature[edit]

When you signed your post over at Wiktionary:Requests for verification/Non-English, your name incorrectly links to the non-existent entry [[Koenfoo]], instead of to your (also currently non-existent) user page at [[User:Koenfoo]].

I'm not sure if you signed manually -- if so, please change your wikicode to [[User:Koenfoo|Koenfoo]]. If you're using the signature feature where you enter four tildes like ~~~~, you may need to change your user account settings to update your signature.

Pronunciation standards in Taiwan[edit]

Hi, your edits on 癌 and 癌症 have been reverted. I believe you're basing your edits on 教育部重編國語辭典修訂本 (or moedict), which is not the standard dictionary for educational purposes. The MoE actually recommends 國語小字典 and 國語辭典簡編本 for educational purposes. (See question 3 here for more details.) If you look at 國語一字多音審訂表, ái is the standard pronunciation of 癌. — justin(r)leung (t...) | c=› } 16:44, 5 August 2020 (UTC)Reply
