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.

Hi. This is not an "alternative form", but a synonym. Equinox ◑ 20:09, 1 July 2015 (UTC)
Please look at how I changed the formatting of the citation, so you can get it right in future. In particular, don't put the quoted text in italics: that's for made-up usage examples, not real citations. Thanks. Equinox ◑ 17:32, 8 July 2015 (UTC)
Thank you for your recent Wikisaurus contributions, e.g. the expansion of Wikisaurus:musician.
One note on excessive specificity, IMHO anyway: I don't think we need WS:dictionary and WS:thesaurus given we already have WS:reference work and Wikisaurus:literature. Instead of creating WS:dictionary, I would find it preferable to have WS:reference work expanded. --Dan Polansky (talk) 09:00, 12 July 2015 (UTC)
Would you be able to create Thai stick in the mainspace? I see you have added this to Wikisaurus. --Dan Polansky (talk) 09:02, 23 August 2015 (UTC)
I copied from OED. What is wrong with "Negro slave"? --Vahag (talk) 08:39, 9 September 2015 (UTC)
When adding etymologies, could you use the appropriate templates? This helps keep things organised and properly categorized. For compound words, please use {{compound}}
, like I did at townmate. Thank you! —CodeCat 14:08, 22 September 2015 (UTC)

If you don’t mind me asking, are you African? --Romanophile ♞ (contributions) 04:36, 9 October 2015 (UTC)
Hi. This is presumably only used for the slang "style" sense, and not e.g. for stolen money, so please add appropriate glosses. Equinox ◑ 18:10, 10 October 2015 (UTC)
Hi there, and thank you for your help!
Can you please add some citations, for your new entry, at pile on ?
Thank you,

Hi! I think maybe you're not totally sure about how prepositions work. Can I ask that you discuss with the community before adding further entries like this? One rule of thumb is: can you move the "preposition" after the noun phrase (pick up the pen, pick the pen up); that's a good sign of a fixed phrase. But if it's something like "leave pens throughout the country", then "leave throughout" probably shouldn't have an entry. Equinox ◑ 03:21, 25 November 2015 (UTC)
Where did you find this term? I can't find it anywhere in either English or Chinese. ---> Tooironic (talk) 12:07, 21 January 2016 (UTC)
