Can anyone give me a five reasons why I should use Wiktionary instead of an established one? ColonelMullins (talk) 19:17, 7 February 2013 (UTC)


 * Well for once, Wiktionary is a lot easier to use; all you need to do is search a word in the search bar and it comes up right away. No need to look through hundreds of pages for one word. Second, Wiktionary has entries in virtually all languages, so you don't have to find some random dictionary for some rarely-spoken language. Thirdly, there are tons of contributors putting in words, incl. recently coined terms that might not be in regular dictionaries. Fourthly, Wiktionary also has entries of phrases in English and other languages; a dictionary doesn't usually contain definitions of whole phrases and idioms like these. And lastly, you might not be able to find informal words and online lingo in dictionaries, but you do find many of these on Wiktionary. If you want anymore reasons, I will be happy to list them. Have a good day sir. --Lisztrachmaninovfan (talk) 02:29, 8 February 2013 (UTC)
