Welcome!

[edit]

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 on Wiktionary's page formatting; all entries must conform to it. The easiest way to start off is to copy the contents of an existing same-language entry, and then adapt it to fit the entry you are creating.
  • Check out Language considerations to find out more about how to edit for a particular language.
  • Our Criteria for Inclusion (CFI) defines exactly which words can be added to Wiktionary; 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.
  • If you have any questions, bring them to Wiktionary:Information desk or ask me on my talk page.
  • Whenever commenting on any discussion page, please sign your posts with four tildes (~~~~) which automatically produces your username and timestamp.
  • You are encouraged to add a BabelBox to your userpage to indicate your self-assessed knowledge of languages.

Enjoy your stay at Wiktionary! — justin(r)leung (t...) | c=› } 15:05, 2 November 2022 (UTC)Reply

Min Dong pronunciations

[edit]

Hi, I see that you're adding Min Dong pronunciations. There seem to be some errors, such as at 冰雹. Please use the phonemic tones, such as bĭng instead of bìng for 冰. The sandhi will apply automatically with hyphenation. Also, please do not mark adding pronunciations as a minor edit. — justin(r)leung (t...) | c=› } 15:07, 2 November 2022 (UTC)Reply

Thank you for the correction, I'll take care on my future edits. Tutwakhamoe (talk) 15:11, 2 November 2022 (UTC)Reply

New data points for zh-dial

[edit]

Hi, I'm wondering where you are getting the data for those new points you've added recently. — justin(r)leung (t...) | c=› } 07:25, 24 November 2022 (UTC)Reply

Sure. They're from a site called 古音小镜. I just saw that most of the existing datapoints were concentrated on the southeastern coastal region, and would like to add a number of data points for the inland provinces as well.
I'm still pretty inexperienced with editing Wiktionary, and isn't familiar with whether to cite sources for the pronunciations added. Regardless, thank you for your time reviewing the newly added content! Tutwakhamoe (talk) 12:37, 24 November 2022 (UTC)Reply
I see. I will have a look to see if there are issues because it seems like there's a lot of new locations and I think I see some errors from a cursory glance. Also, when you add new locations, you need to update Module:zh/data/dial-syn. — justin(r)leung (t...) | c=› } 05:49, 25 November 2022 (UTC)Reply
Right now the dialectal synonyms tables are showing codes (e.g. Yiyang-X) for some locations. Please fix them by specifying what is to be shown with "english =" in Module:zh/data/dial. RcAlex36 (talk) 06:23, 26 November 2022 (UTC)Reply
Thanks for the reminder, I'll added an English label for each current data point. Tutwakhamoe (talk) 23:23, 26 November 2022 (UTC)Reply
