Let's make it official, since no one else said it!
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.

In the pronunciation, you indicated that kuninglik has length 3 on the first syllable. But this seem odd as it's a short syllable (ku-). How can this be overlong? —CodeCat 18:22, 15 August 2016 (UTC)
If you don't know the actual spelling, don't guess it. Put it as the transliteration instead and someone who knows Erzya better will come and fix it later. —CodeCat 19:55, 7 October 2016 (UTC)

Hi there! Thanks for all the Estonian entries! Can I ask you to have a look at the pages in Category:Tbot entries (Estonian), to check them and to add the genitive, partitive form to the entry. If so, you can remove the cleanup tag Like I did here. Thanks!! --G23r0f0i (talk) 17:40, 15 April 2017 (UTC)
Two points:
{{usex}}
helps format usage examples and also tags the languages appropriately in the HTML.I've made these changes to meenutama, I'm letting you know for future reference. —CodeCat 22:49, 6 July 2017 (UTC)
This template is slowly being phased out in favour of the more specific {{der}}
, {{inh}}
and {{bor}}
templates. There's a list of Estonian entries that use this template at Category:etyl cleanup/et. Would you be willing to have a go at these? If you need me to explain more about how the new templates should be used, feel free to ask me. —Rua (mew) 18:01, 10 October 2017 (UTC)
{{etyl}}
to say {{etyl|bat-pro|et}}. I don't think you can use the other templates for this, since Proto-Baltic's codes are weird. Strombones (talk) 18:47, 10 October 2017 (UTC)
{{m}}
). A workaround is "Borrowed from a {{etyl|bat|et}} language", which uses the {{etyl}}
template.{{der}}
worked. Strombones (talk) 04:53, 11 October 2017 (UTC).
You mention in the etymology section of tobi (“short pipe, cigarette”) that the origin of the word would be Finnish dialectal terms topikka and topikko. Can you give a source that would support this view? I'm unable to verify that the existence of these two terms, let alone their meaning. As a wild guess, I'd rather think that the word should have something to do with tubakas (“tobacco”). --Hekaheka (talk) 15:46, 1 November 2017 (UTC)
Hi, I noticed that you are using {{bor}}
without the notext=1
parameter. I want to notify you that the way this template works will change very shortly, following Wiktionary:Beer parlour/2017/November#Template:bor: Replace notext=1 with withtext=1. The sense of the parameters will be switched: whereas before you needed a parameter to suppress display of the text, in the new situation you'll need a parameter to include the text. The withtext=1
parameter is only temporary, to facilitate the transition to the new format. You can use it for now if you really want, but the goal is to get rid of it. —Rua (mew) 21:54, 11 November 2017 (UTC)

Why you reverted the use of the template {{l}}
?
The use of the template {{l}}
is suggested in several sections of wiktionary:Entry layout.
The template {{l|en|Estonia}}
is equivalent to the use of the plain link ].

{{head}}
(for the plural forms, for the phrase nouns, ...), {{t}}

{{l|en|...}}
in definitions is not recommended, as it slows down the servers especially on big pages like a. —Mahāgaja · talk 10:13, 29 July 2019 (UTC)Hallo, Strombones, I created cs:tõlk on cs wictionary; You can add inflection template to english wictionary (as I don't know, how to handle with templates on en:wict).
