Welcome

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 documenting how Wiktionary pages should be formatted. All entries should conform to this standard. The easiest way to start off is to copy the contents of an existing page for a similar word, and then adapt it to fit the entry you are creating.
  • Our Criteria for inclusion (CFI) define exactly which words can be added to Wiktionary, though it may be a bit technical and longwinded. 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.
  • The FAQ aims to answer most of your remaining questions, and there are several help pages that you can browse for more information.
  • A glossary of our technical jargon, and some hints for dealing with the more common communication issues.
  • If you have anything to ask about or suggest, we have several discussion rooms. Feel free to ask any other editors in person if you have any problems or question, by posting a message on their talk page.

You are encouraged to add a BabelBox to your userpage. This shows which languages you know, so other editors know which languages you'll be working on, and what they can ask you for help with.

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wiktionarian! If you have any questions, bring them to the Wiktionary:Information desk, or ask me on my talk page. If you do so, please sign your posts with four tildes: ~~~~ which automatically produces your username and the current date and time.

Again, welcome! —Μετάknowledgediscuss/deeds 21:10, 15 January 2016 (UTC)Reply

Thank yuo for those Lombardic etymologies! Just a minor note, please see the changes I made here for how to format etymologies better. Thanks! —Μετάknowledgediscuss/deeds 17:09, 16 January 2016 (UTC)Reply

Italian towns

Hi there. When you add an entry for an Italian town, do you think you could include an entry for the corresponding adjective. e.g. tranese for Trani. Ciao SemperBlotto (talk) 10:55, 3 February 2016 (UTC)Reply

Capitalized and uncapitalized words.

Hi there again. When both a capitalized and uncapitalised form of a word exists, we link them using an {{also}} template, on the very first line. See Salso and salso as an example. The words are not necessarily in the same language. Cheers. SemperBlotto (talk) 16:49, 9 February 2016 (UTC)Reply

Non-Italian rivers

Hi there. I think that rivers in countries outside of Italy should not have only Italian entries. Normally the primary entry (in this, the English Wiktionary) should be English, with a subsequent Italian entry if the same name is used in Italian. See Okavango for my preferred format. Ciao. SemperBlotto (talk) 16:34, 12 February 2016 (UTC)Reply

Where did you find this word? I'm having trouble corroborating it. Thanks! —JohnC5 16:19, 29 June 2016 (UTC)Reply

Ileargo

Ileargo does not seem to be a real place. Perhaps you meant Ilergāonia? — Kleio (t · c) 13:59, 9 September 2016 (UTC)Reply

Ancient Greek accentuation rules

Hi. If you don't know them, please acquaint yourself with the rules of Ancient Greek accentuation (and especially the part about the placement of the accent); if you do know them, please be more careful. You're making a lot of mistakes of this kind. Per utramque cavernam 14:51, 27 October 2018 (UTC)Reply

Your fascinating words

I have been following your fascinating greek for some time now, @Samubert96. Trying to guess what it is you are reading! Thank you for them. I do modern greek, and ancient, when they coincide. About the θήκη#Derived_terms: do you think they should all be moved to -θήκη#Ancient_Greek? I only did βιβλιοθήκη and some more examples. sarri.greek (talk) 15:37, 10 December 2018 (UTC)Reply

Latin nouns with singular genitive forms ending in -i are second declension, not third declension

You seem to be consistently entering Latin city names of the second declension (e.g. Diolindum) as third declension. As far as I know, all nouns ending in -i in the genitive singular are second declension, so please use that category in the future. If I'm mistaken, please let me know!--Urszag (talk) 20:43, 27 February 2019 (UTC)Reply

grc-IPA

Hi, when you add {{grc-IPA}} to new entries, please remember to mark all instances of α, ι, and υ (not counting where they appear in diphthongs) as either long or short. This includes cases where short vowels are long by position; they still need to be explicitly marked short in the first positional parameter of {{grc-IPA}}. Thanks! —Mahāgaja · talk 08:53, 5 April 2019 (UTC)Reply

P.S. If a word doesn't occur until Koine or later, then you don't need to mark the vowels as long or short, but you should put |period=koi1, |period=koi2, |period=byz1, or |period=byz2 into the template to indicate the earliest period when the word is attested. —Mahāgaja · talk 08:57, 5 April 2019 (UTC)Reply

I hope you will excuse my nitpickiness, but what is the purpose of the various edits adding links to etymology sections like that of κίρσιον and then removing them? It clutters up the edit history. If you're making notes of entries that you're planning to make, perhaps you might consider making a user page instead. But in any case thank you for all the entries you're creating. — Eru·tuon 19:37, 24 May 2019 (UTC)Reply

Babel

You are making some pretty cool contributions for an extended period of time. Would you add {{babel}} to your user page? Is not mandatory, just useful. --Dan Polansky (talk) 16:05, 22 June 2019 (UTC)Reply

Gobio

About three years ago you added an image to ]. Unfortunately the image was for a fish of genus Gobius, not Gobio. It's an easy mistake to make, but nonetheless it should not be made. I certainly don't want to discourage you from adding images, even if you should occasionally make errors (After all, I make plenty of them.). Just try to be careful. BTW, I've substituted a better image. DCDuring (talk) 23:56, 30 July 2019 (UTC)Reply

βεττονική

The entry looks good, but I am not happy with L&SJ with regards to the naming of the organism. In contemporary English sources Paul's betony is Veronica officinalis (syn. Stachys betonica). In taxonomic sources Sideritis purpurea is Sideritis romana subsp. purpurea. English vernacular names for Sideritis spp. are ironwort, mountain tea, shepherd's tea. Unfortunately this kind of thing often happens with vernacular names of taxa, especially in older languages, like Hebrew, Greek, Latin, etc. I don't know how to proceed, except perhaps put this information on the talk page for the entry.

Surnames

Hi. Where can I search the 2010 United States Census? I want to see why our Sahakyan is 97.18% Hispanic/Latino. Also, {{R:en:DAFN}} is for referencing the Dictionary of American Family Names (DAFN). If the entry is not found in DAFN, obviously it should not be cited. --Vahag (talk) 20:40, 8 December 2021 (UTC)Reply

Sorry, it was my mistake: clearly 97.18% of White people hold this surname. Anyway, you can download the list of United States surnames occuring 100 or more times in the United States Census Bureau site, you just need to search Names_2010 Census. Hope it might help you. Samubert96 (talk) 20:49, 8 December 2021 (UTC)Reply
I found the list, thanks. Vahag (talk) 20:54, 8 December 2021 (UTC)Reply

Please stop adding {{swp}} links from generic surnames to names of specific individuals on Wikipedia. This is of no etymological value, and creates the likely misleading impression that the linked person is the forebear of the name, which most are obviously not. bd2412 T 18:12, 27 January 2022 (UTC)Reply

I like adding the famous bearer as a usex, as in Tankian and Patapoutian. That way the reader knows this is indeed the entry for the surname of the person he was researching and not for some homonymous surname. Vahag (talk) 20:32, 28 January 2022 (UTC)Reply

Pysher

Did you get this right? You mentioned Pysher and Pyscher on the page. I'll leave it to you to fix... GreyishWorm (talk) 19:08, 8 October 2022 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for reporting this, I was probably influenced by the German surname Beischer which originated the American surname and I added an unexistent -c- Samubert96 (talk) 08:41, 9 October 2022 (UTC)Reply

Ottoman borrowings from Arabic

I think you have been too aggressive changing {{der}} to {{bor}} in Ottoman Turkish etymologies. Ottoman Turkish terms derived from Arabic would not be considered borrowings in Wiktionary's classification unless they came into the language after c. 1500 and were not indirect borrowings through Persian. Words that came into Turkish before c. 1500 are inherited from Old Anatolian Turkish. (We should probably make that an etymology-only code within Ottoman Turkish, but for now it is not.) For the most part we have not distinguished direct borrowings from Arabic from indirect borrowings via Persian. Vox Sciurorum (talk) 11:19, 31 January 2023 (UTC)Reply

@Samubert96 Where did you take Common Turkic *çörek from? Allahverdi Verdizade (talk) 13:26, 16 December 2023 (UTC)Reply
It was already written as a borrowing from Common Turkic *çörek, you should ask to the user who created the page. If you think that it's not correct, feel free to modify the etymology Samubert96 (talk) 13:30, 16 December 2023 (UTC)Reply

Wolston

I know the surname exists, but drew a blank on Wikipedia. Can you come up with any references? DonnanZ (talk) 11:51, 28 August 2023 (UTC)Reply

Hi @Donnanz, I've just edited the page adding some references I've found in Forebears, which states that the surname is still present in the United States, and in ancestry.com, which provides a list of people who carried this surname. I hope it can help. Samubert96 (talk) 08:59, 29 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
Thanks! My source was the Railway Magazine, March 1950: "R. W. Wolston, of Brixham, was instrumental in obtaining the Act for the railway, which was authorised on July 25, 1864 .", and "When Wolston was nearly ruined, " DonnanZ (talk) 09:37, 29 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
I guess you can add your source as a quotation, the more references we have the better the entry will be Samubert96 (talk) 09:47, 29 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
Yeah, I had already considered that, Done done. DonnanZ (talk) 10:23, 29 August 2023 (UTC)Reply

Unwanted American Statistics Revisited

You're still adding them, aren't you? If you cannot be bothered to start using MORE RECENT statistics (e.g., from the 2020 U.S. Census, which were made fully available last year anyway), please consider starting to remove ALL outdated so-called statistics sections referencing the 2010 U.S. Census or a bot may be set up to get rid of those come what may. IMHO, they are frankly NOT needed (not to mention potentially inviting additions, by other users, from, e.g., the 2021 British and Canadian Censuses) and clutter up many, MANY proper noun pages. I also see this was brought up before in the Beer Parlor, and that a couple of other users supported completely getting rid of them "with supreme prejudice", but that you are STILL stubbornly refusing to acknowledge that no more such sections should have been added. Kind but stern regards. -- 46.208.36.99 16:28, 3 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
