Hello
Hi there, do tell me anything I edited wrongly.

 * Hey! Please have a look WT:EL. The most pressing mistakes in your entry dāru are:
 * The lack of a headword template: Each part-of-speech header like  should immediately be followed by such a headword template, in this case sa-noun.
 * Not using # for the different senses
 * Not linking correctly. See how some of the link therein are red? That's because you're linking to the uppercase when you should be linking to the lowercase. If you want to show uppercase but link to lowercase, you can do this by writing . But, as per WT:STYLE, senses in non-English articles should typically be lower case.
 * for Sanskrit-specific advice. &mdash; Fytcha〈 T | L | C 〉 14:19, 10 January 2022 (UTC)

Thanks for telling me.

Could you show me an example as this is my first time creating a page?

Thanks.

We don't include Latin script transliterations of Sanskrit terms as entries of their own. All I know for sure is we include Sanskrit terms in Devanagari script. I don't know anything much about the language so I don't know about the other scripts listed at Category:Sanskrit language but, to reiterate, Latin transliterations of Sanskrit do not get entries but terms written in Devanagari do. Also, please note the advice Fytcha has given. 37.110.218.43 14:20, 10 January 2022 (UTC)

 * See About Sanskrit. In general, the place to look for the rules and practices for a given language is at "Wiktionary:About {the name of the language}", with a shortcut in the form "WT:A{the language code for the language}", in this case WT:ASA. While I'm at it, I might as well give you our welcome template, which has links to a lot of useful information:
