[edit]You should be more careful, your edits are quite bad compared to what should be done Stríðsdrengur (talk) 14:52, 25 January 2024 (UTC)
- @Trooper57 You are more familiar with languages in this area than I am, I think you could explain better what to do with these idioms Stríðsdrengur (talk) 14:57, 25 January 2024 (UTC)
- My knowledge limits to Old Tupi, but I know something of Guaraní by the cognates :p The spelling seems right. Not sure about the other languages.
- A good start for any of them would be addiding the references properly with
{{cite-book}}, rather than "According to". - Also, I prefer putting the references in a separate heading (Further reading or References), rather citing them in the entry, but I've seen other editors doing like that, so I don't know if Wiktionary endorses it or not.

- Also: there's some confusion about Guaraní's puso. Some use the saltillo (Ꞌ), the modifier letter apostrophe (ʼ) or the simple apostrophe ('). We should choose one of them if we want to padronize entries, because they seem to be used very arbitrarily on Wikitionary (and Wikipedia). Trooper57 (talk) 15:36, 25 January 2024 (UTC)
- I just found it strange that I thought it would be better to at least find some reference for them before some mod or adm finds them and puts them up for verification and maybe a deletion. Stríðsdrengur (talk) 15:42, 25 January 2024 (UTC)
