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 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! -Atelaes λάλει ἐμοί 11:58, 11 May 2012 (UTC)Reply

I have deleted this entry, as it was misspelled (the accented iota was actually an accented Latin i). However we have the correct spelling at φιλία (philía), which I've recently expanded. Any questions or comments, please let me know. -Atelaes λάλει ἐμοί 11:58, 11 May 2012 (UTC)Reply

Please stop

You don't seem to know what you're doing. We don't create redirects like that; please see WT:REDIR. We don't transliterate Ancient Greek like that; please see WT:AGRC. Ancient Greek was not pronounced like Modern Greek. Please stop editing things that you don't know anything about or I will have to block you. —Μετάknowledgediscuss/deeds 06:21, 5 December 2012 (UTC)Reply

Hi! This is one of the more confusing things about Wiktionary, but: the "Related terms" sections are for etymologically related terms only, not merely semantically related / coordinate terms, which go in "See also" or even "Coordinate terms" sections (see WT:Wiktionary:Semantic relations for a bit more on "Coordinate terms" sections). Hence I moved things around a bit here. - -sche (discuss) 20:38, 9 December 2012 (UTC)Reply

PS, rather than using {{unreferenced}} tags (which tend to go unnoticed), you can post in the Tea Room or WT:RFV if you have doubts about a word's definition. Cheers, :) - -sche (discuss) 20:38, 9 December 2012 (UTC)Reply

I forgot to mention

One more thing: if you don't know what a word means in a language you don't speak, it would be more helpful if you don't add it. For Middle English, instead of creating stubs like this, please check if the Middle English Dictionary has it, and, if so, get information like the part of speech there.
