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 on Wiktionary's page formatting; all entries must conform to it. The easiest way to start off is to copy the contents of an existing same-language entry, and then adapt it to fit the entry you are creating.
 * Check out Language considerations to find out more about how to edit for a particular language.
 * Our Criteria for Inclusion (CFI) defines exactly which words can be added to Wiktionary; 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.
 * If you have any questions, bring them to Information desk or ask me on my talk page.
 * Whenever commenting on any discussion page, please sign your posts with four tildes which automatically produces your username and timestamp.
 * You are encouraged to add a BabelBox to your userpage to indicate your self-assessed knowledge of languages.

Enjoy your stay at Wiktionary! — justin(r)leung { (t...) 15:09, 4 September 2023 (UTC)

Pronunciations in Chinese
Hi, I have seen that you have been adding pronunciations to Chinese sections. I would like to ask you to refrain from adding pronunciations by inferring pronunciations of the components. Not all "Chinese" words are used in all Chinese varieties. Unless there is proof of such words existing in each variety that you add, it would not be good practice to infer readings across varieties. — justin(r)leung { (t...) 15:11, 4 September 2023 (UTC)


 * Most of the Chinese pronunciation i've added so far were from other wiktionary article, so i don't have much proof of the pronunciations' exist, i actually here to verify some of the pronunciation that im confusing abt. if what i added wasn't suitable for wiktionary as a dictionary, u can delete it immediately. 28daniel (talk) 15:29, 4 September 2023 (UTC)
