Welcome

 * Oh yeah, I didn't give you a proper welcome because I thought you were this one guy who abuses multiple accounts. Ultimateria (talk) 17:03, 25 July 2012 (UTC)

Format
The parameter "pl=-" in puts entries in Category:Spanish terms needing attention. Just use a hyphen instead. Ultimateria (talk) 15:11, 17 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Can you give me an example please
 * Ultimateria (talk) 15:13, 17 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Right. Why are you telling me this? --BLurpty (talk) 15:18, 17 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Because there were a lot of entries in that category that shouldn't have been. And it's easier for me if you change your formatting so I don't have to change your entries. Ultimateria (talk) 16:49, 17 July 2012 (UTC)

Mentoring
I can mentor you. I checked your contributions and in general they are pretty good. The first two things that I recommend that you do are: — Ungoliant (Falai) 18:11, 24 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Create a user page with a template, so we can know what languages you speak.
 * Done--BLurpty (talk) 20:18, 24 July 2012 (UTC)
 * On your preferences, under the Watchlist tab, check the box that says “Add pages and files I edit to my watchlist.” This way if you commit a mistake and someone fixes it, it will appear in your watchlist.
 * Done. Thanks very much, mentor! --BLurpty (talk) 20:18, 24 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Great! From now on I’ll be checking you contributions every now and then; if I find you are committing a mistake or could improve I’ll send you a message. Feel free to ask me anything on my talk page. — Ungoliant (Falai) 00:40, 25 July 2012 (UTC)
 * It is only a matter of time before I make a major screwup, I guess. Please be nice to me when that happens --BLurpty (talk) 12:42, 25 July 2012 (UTC)

The explanation of each is in the edit summary. Some mistakes you committed on the first edits but eventually got it right. — Ungoliant (Falai) 16:46, 25 July 2012 (UTC)
 * There is no need to link manually to the language heading ( estallido ) in templates which have a lang=es parameter.
 * Some nouns have feminine forms, which you can add with a f= parameter.
 * must have two parameters: the root and the stem . Otherwise it is added to Category:Spanish terms needing attention.
 * sastra: Shouldn’t that be sastre? If it should, add to the entry.
 * sastra should have a definition, and the headline a m= parameter.
 * I'd like to add one little thing: when you create a Spanish verb and you're confident that the conjugation table is correct, you should add it to User:BuchmeierBot/FeedMe so the bot can create the verb forms. However, it doesn't work for reflexive verbs. Ultimateria (talk) 16:57, 25 July 2012 (UTC)


 * That's great stuff. All useful ideas. As for the incorrect plurals, I see no difference between yours and mine, and mine were created using WT:ACCEL, which is quick. Does it matter if I do them the ACCEL way? Thanks for the conjugation links, I'll remember about them. --BLurpty (talk) 18:16, 28 July 2012 (UTC)


 * There wasn’t any incorrect plural, just lack of the feminine form in some entries. — Ungoliant (Falai) 18:23, 28 July 2012 (UTC)
