User:Norm~enwiktionary

Actually, I think I can better explain the abruptness with which new users are treated. Part of it is because, rather than Wiktionary editors being rude, Wikipedia editors (for a variety of reasons) are very, very lax. Part of the differences are also likely that nature of Wiktionary - where the only thing to contribute is (mostly) academic information rather than fancruft or trivia - means its users are of a significantly different demographic than Wikipedia.
