Welcome!

Hello, and welcome to Wiktionary. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are a few good links for newcomers:

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wiktionarian! By the way, you can sign your name on Talk (discussion) and vote pages using four tildes, like this: ~, which automatically produces your name and the current date. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to one of the discussion rooms or ask me on my Talk page. Again, welcome!

Thanks for the quotation; we need more people adding them. Please note that I have formatted the quote to standard convention for Wiktionary (see Quotations). From your edit history, I assume you know something about economics. You might have a look at Category:Economics and see what can be expanded and improved, or just what is missing. (the list at the top of the category is temporary until someone has entered the terms.) --EncycloPetey 01:20, 19 February 2008 (UTC)

Hoocoodanode

 * I did provide the documentation you are asking for, in the comment summary. The word has been used in the New York Times, among others.  The New York Times use was by Paul Krugman, a Nobel laureate.  Please restore the page.  N2e 22:09, 24 February 2009 (UTC)


 * In Google books, news, scholar, groups there are no uses only mentions. The coiner being a Nobel laureate is a red herring. We need three citations from durably attested media showing meaning in use. Krugman's article title does not show meaning. We have a neologism appendix for wannabe words like this, because they sometimes turn into real words. DCDuring TALK 00:49, 25 February 2009 (UTC)


 * Please feel free to extend Citations:hoocoodanode. On a quick look through their search results I think the May is the earliest, but it's hard to tell because a more recent title was obviously in their "today's post" box and so it seems to match all pages. (Note that blogs do not count towards CFI, it's just there for interest). Conrad.Irwin 00:59, 25 February 2009 (UTC)

You cannot put an RfV specifically on etymologies. However, you might want to look at Etymology scriptorium. -- Prince Kassad 16:38, 26 November 2010 (UTC)
