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!

Please note that we call 'Anglo-Saxon' Old English around here. Thanks! --Μετάknowledgediscuss/deeds 23:36, 31 July 2012 (UTC)Reply

Welcome

I would also like to welcome you, GlaikitGowk!

Wiktionary is edited by a relatively small number of people, but we tend to be pretty serious about lexicography. I'm glad to see you've been making contributions to Scots in particular. We just finished a vote to make it easier to add words for lesser-used languages such as Scots.

We also have a new mentoring program to assign a specific person to help new editors learn the ropes here. If you're interested, you can sign up on that page or just mention it here.

Cheers! --BB12 (talk) 01:12, 5 August 2012 (UTC)Reply
