Why are you suddenly changing the definition lines for Vietnamese entries into lowercase? They do not need this sort of "fix". TeleComNasSprVen (talk) 07:18, 1 January 2014 (UTC)
Hey, sorry. I just made an entry for every language I could find on Wikipedia for Ohio, and I didn't read my talk page until I was done. I am also a new user to the Danish Wikipedia, and I was there before here, so that's how I know the coding that I do. Really sorry, I feel like I made a mess. I'll try to go back to all those pages and separate the stuff with lines. Could you please help me correct all the pages so that they are how they should be (I don't know how to use templates for all those languages)? Thanks. Also, by the way, do you find all these links annoying, or do you think this is a clever way to write since Wiktionary has an entry for almost every word I could ever type?

Hi,
Please don't use any of those topical categories, just normal Category:cmn:Fruits, etc. they are deprecated as per Wiktionary:Beer_parlour/2013/April#Some_small_changes_to_Mandarin_.28also_Cantonese.2C_Min_Nan.29_entry_structure_and_about_topic_categories_-_suggestion and the request @Wiktionary:Requests_for_moves,_mergers_and_splits#Mandarin_topical_categories. Using Help:Gadget-HotCat is a bit problematic, as each category should have a sorting parameter (numbered pinyin or "pint") after "|" (as with Japanese kanji and katakana), e.g. ]. Please note my changes to 莱檬 and 萊檬.--Anatoli (обсудить/вклад)
Lua error in Module:parameters at line 290: Parameter 1 should be a valid language or etymology language code; the value "Category:Advanced_Mandarin_in_simplified_script" is not valid. See WT:LOL and WT:LOL/E.

It is put on. The definition on wingtip nary that it is bioengineered wouldn't this mean it was created by humans? Based on past knowledge I thought it was naturally developed? Is this an error?

Note that I am not a native Danish speaker. I do use sources although to make sure that my entries are correct. My sources say that gælle means exactly what the definition says. Muffe apparently means sleeve. Thanks for asking, and it's nice to meet you. Ready Steady Yeti (talk) 02:25, 31 May 2014 (UTC)
Since when do you know Azeri? How do I know your declension tables and Azeri in Arabic script are accurate? --Vahag (talk) 08:16, 7 June 2014 (UTC)
I think it is impossible because this is something later than the Tang Dynasty, so it would not follow the Chinese reading. I would coin it as 얼음차 (eoreumcha). --kc_kennylau (talk) 11:20, 17 June 2014 (UTC)

"Machines"? A "device", yes, but there are no moving parts. A Lucet is a two-tined wooden fork, used as a frame around which the thread is knotted to form the cord. I don't think it rises to the status of "machine", unless knitting needles also do. --Catsidhe (verba, facta) 22:06, 22 June 2014 (UTC)
The position of the curly bracket in {{zh-pron}}

Why the changes to the formatting of the synonyms here? They were fine before, and now many of them don't have pinyin. Anyway, I thought the way I formatted it was standard practice here. ---> Tooironic (talk) 12:17, 22 July 2014 (UTC)
{{zh-l}}
can still have pinyin, e.g. 騷客/骚客 (sāokè), 墨客 (mòkè). I don't think it's a big deal, though to use pinyin in synonyms, etc. but pinyin shouldn't be linked and precede Chinese terms, if it's used. --Anatoli T. (обсудить/вклад) 23:47, 22 July 2014 (UTC)

Hi
Thank you for the welcome on my user page.
Perhaps you can direct me to the right place.
I work as a consultant for the Dzongkha Development Commission (DDC), the national language authority of Bhutan. After talking to the head of the DDC and others concerned, and explaining what Wiktionary and the CCbySA license are, it seems we can contribute the data we have for English-Dzongkha, Dzongkha-English, Dzongkha-Dzongkha and Tibetan-Dzongkha Dictionaries - as well as separate data for Dzongkha homophones
Who should I contact about this? We have the data for these dictionaries in a MySQL database as well as in XDXF (XML) and StarDict formats.
thanks

When you created that page you put in a comment saying you weren't sure about the correct spelling of the hamza-over-alif. It's correct according to the standard hamza rules, which you can find on w:Hamza. All the Hamza rules are in ar-conj, so if you add conjugation to a verb, it will correctly spell the hamza of all forms in the conjugation, including alternatives that exist in some situations. Benwing (talk) 11:35, 1 September 2014 (UTC)
{{ar-verb}}
I'm thinking actually that ar-verb needs to be automated like ar-conj so you don't have to type in any more info than what you type into ar-conj (except to clarify the radicals in a few cases), and it automatically figures out the radicals from the headword and generates the 3rd-person masculine singular past and non-past indicative. I added a comment to your talk page about this. You'd need to type in the form, the past/non-past vowels (for form I only), and the appropriate weak root (for augmented-form hollow/defective verbs). All the rest -- the forms themselves, their translation, etc., can be auto-generated. What do you think? Benwing (talk) 11:41, 1 September 2014 (UTC)

g
). IPA /ɡ/, on the other hand, only has one correct form. Keeping the code points separate means that a font can use whatever shape for the Latin "g", while still presenting a correct IPA /ɡ/ (eg.: gɡ
). --Catsidhe (verba, facta) 22:02, 7 September 2014 (UTC)Hi. My one entry ਸੋਚੈ was edited, and language of this word was changed to Punjabi. I want to make a point that the language of Sikh scriptures is different from Modern Punjabi. It is a kind of a mixture of Punjabi and Hindi from 15th to 17th century. It is commonly known as Sant Bhasha. Christopher Shackle used the term 'Sacred Language of Sikhs' for this language and has given a noun declensions and verb conjugations different from Modern Punjabi. Even the book 'Indo-Aryan Languages' by George Cordona and Dhanesh Jain made a separate entry fro this language as 'Language of Adi Granth' or 'Language of Guru Granth Sahib'. Please suggest if can keep my entries under 'Sant Bhasha' rather than Punjabi.Thanks. Bhvintri (talk) 15:41, 8 September 2014 (UTC)
{{ar-verb}}
You no longer need to put head=, impf=, tr=, etc. For non-form-I, these parameters are actually ignored unless you add useparam=y. For form I, they are used, but you can also just specify the past/non-past vowels and they will be generated. Benwing (talk) 22:34, 11 September 2014 (UTC)

You added this back in January, with unknown defn. I can't find this in any of the three dictionaries I'm using as sources. Are you sure this is a real word? Where did you get it from? Benwing (talk) 09:50, 30 September 2014 (UTC)

I just undid your removal of the WP link in the Japanese entry at 汽船. My understanding was that JA entries would provide WP links to both JA and EN, where such articles exist. That said, I know I've been away for a while. Perhaps policy / consensus has changed? ‑‑ Eiríkr Útlendi │ Tala við mig 21:06, 8 October 2014 (UTC)
Hi! Thank you for your greetings! Since I'm new, I would like to know you opinion on the correct way to express the following considerations on the plural of magon. There are at least 5-6 variants of Venetian, in my variant (spoken in north of Veneto), singular and plural forms do not have a suffix, the number is determined only by the article, while in other variants the plural is similar to the italian one. So in my variant it is magon m (plural magon), while in the other is magon m (plural magoni). Should I put only the second one, which is the more widespread, or should I put both?
