Wiktionary:Utilities

This page serves as a means of organizing meta pages in the Wiktionary. Most of these pages are in the "Wiktionary:" namespace, but some are elsewhere. A preliminary review of the pages listed here shows that they contain much duplicated and sometimes contradictory information. We hope to be able to clean this up.
