The aim of this page is to explain the norms used in Sundanese language entries. It is intended to complement, not supersede, WT:CFI and WT:ELE.

Historically, Sundanese has been written using various scripts, including the Sundanese script, Carakan, Pegon, and the Latin alphabet. Before the colonial era, Sundanese was mainly written in the Old Sundanese script, or in other Indic-derived scripts such as Pallava and Kawi. With the expansion of Javanese kingdoms and the spread of Islam, the Old Sundanese script fell out of use and was replaced by Carakan (a Javanese-based script) and Pegon (an Arabic-based script). The Sundanese script was later reintroduced in the late 1990s as Aksara Sunda Baku (Standard Sundanese Script).

The introduction of the Latin alphabet for Sundanese came along with Dutch colonialism. In 1913, the first official spelling convention for Sundanese was standardized by D.K. Ardiwinata—an author, linguist, and head of Paguyuban Pasundan, as well as an editor at Balai Pustaka. Since then, Sundanese spelling conventions have undergone several revisions, with the most recent being the 1988 convention.

As the Latin alphabet's usage is more common than the Sundanese script, Sundanese entries in Wiktionary are advised to be written in the Latin alphabet, adhering to the spelling rules established in Palanggeran Éjahan Basa Sunda in the 1988 Sundanese Language Congress. Entries written in the Sundanese script are also acceptable, but only to serve as a soft redirect to the standard Latin spelling. See Appendix:Sundanese spellings.

Considering that the Sundanese language uses two scripts—Latin alphabet and the Sundanese script,— there are two preferred layouts for Sundanese entries.

• Wiktionary is open for users who are not proficient in Sundanese.
• Only entries that fulfill the criteria for inclusion can be created.
• Lemma: The lemma form in Sundanese is the kecap asal (“stem word”), kecap rundayan (“affixed word”), kecap rajékan (“reduplicated word”) and kecap kantétan (“compound word”) written in Latin script.
• Template:su-set is supposed to contain words if possible in various registers
• Pronunciation: The pronunciation may be entered in both phonemic (using / /) and phonetic form (using ).
