Hello, and thanks for your Russian entries! Here's the standard welcome message.
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!

Grave accents don't go in headwords or links
[edit]One of the conventions we follow in Wiktionary is not to put grave accents in headwords, links, etc. They only go in pronunciation sections. You originally created по́го-сти́к (pógo-stík) as по̀го-сти́к (pògo-stík); I corrected it, you then undid the correction, and I have corrected it again. The principle we follow is to mark secondary accents as primary accents in words separated by a hyphen (e.g. по́го-сти́к (pógo-stík)), and to not mark them at all on single words without hyphens in them (e.g. оргкомите́т (orgkomitét)).

- @Benwing2 Thanks, that was a mistake and done when I was going through a process of fixing broken links which occurred in pages that I originally created after your bot did auto-accent, such as подбой (podboj). Now I see there was no problem with auto-accent in the page по́го-сти́к (pógo-stík). spu 06:29, 15 February 2019 (UTC)
Hello,
There are a few problems with your edit.
- Bulgarian and Russian pronunciations are very different, so are templates and modules. You can't use templates from one language in another. You used
{{bg-IPA|цикламе́н}}
in a Russian entry, making the pronunciation [t͡sikɫɐˈmɛn] when it should be [t͡sɨklɐˈmʲen]. - цикламе́н (ciklamén) is a masculine noun, not a neuter. You made it a neuter
{{ru-noun+|цикламе́н|n}}
. Was it a wrong guess or you just don't care so much about these things? - "n" in the declension table
{{ru-noun-table|цикламе́н|n}}
is meaningless. - Language sections are separated by four hyphens on a line of its own. ----.
@Atitarev That was done quickly and the errors are noted. Thanks for your edit. --spu 11:53, 12 May 2020 (UTC)
- OK.
{{ping}}
doesn't work without the actual user signature in the same edit. You don't type your user name. You need to add four tildes: ~~~~ to the end of you post or click the third button from the top left of your edit window. --Anatoli T. (обсудить/вклад) 11:22, 12 May 2020 (UTC) - @Atitarev Wow, thank you again for your timely tips! --spu 11:51, 12 May 2020 (UTC)
