Welcome!
Welcome!

Hello, welcome to Wiktionary, and thank you for your contribution so far. Here are a few good links for newcomers:


 * How to edit a page 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.
 * Entry layout explained (ELE) is a detailed policy documenting how Wiktionary pages should be formatted. All entries should conform to this standard, the easiest way to do this is to copy exactly an existing page for a similar word.
 * Our Criteria for inclusion (CFI) define exactly which words Wiktionary is interested in including. There is also a list of things that Wiktionary is not for a higher level overview.
 * The FAQ aims to answer most of your remaining questions, and there are several help pages that you can browse for more information.
 * We have discussion rooms in which you can ask any question about Wiktionary or its entries, a glossary of our technical jargon, and some hints for dealing with the more common communication issues.

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wiktionarian! If you have any questions, bring them to the Information desk, or ask me on my talk page. If you do so, please sign your posts with four tildes: ~ which automatically produces your username and the current date and time.

Again, welcome!

 * Thanks for the welcome. I've been a member and occasionally active since 2006.  Oswald Glinkmeyer 16:25, 20 October 2009 (UTC)


 * Yeah, I saw that, but I figured late was better than never. —Ruakh TALK 16:27, 20 October 2009 (UTC)
 * I posted in the Tea_room only because the word I was inquiring about punter and it had a template that indicated the word was being actively discussed there, but I didn't see any activity on that word. Is it possible the thread's already been archived?


 * Yes, quite a while ago: Tea room/Archive 2008/April. I guess whoever did the archiving that month didn't clear out all the s. I'd yell at him, but people would look at me funny. —Ruakh TALK 18:07, 20 October 2009 (UTC)
