The standard welcome message:

Welcome!

Hello, welcome to Wiktionary, and thank you for your contributions so far.

If you are unfamiliar with wiki editing, take a look at Help:How to edit a page. It 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.

These links may help you familiarize yourself with Wiktionary:


 * Entry layout (EL) is a detailed policy documenting how Wiktionary pages should be formatted. All entries should conform to this standard. The easiest way to start off is to copy the contents of an existing page for a similar word, and then adapt it to fit the entry you are creating.
 * Our Criteria for inclusion (CFI) define exactly which words can be added to Wiktionary, though it may be a bit technical and longwinded. The most important part is that Wiktionary only accepts words that have been in somewhat widespread use over the course of at least a year, and citations that demonstrate usage can be asked for when there is doubt.
 * If you already have some experience with editing our sister project Wikipedia, then you may find our guide for Wikipedia users useful.
 * The FAQ aims to answer most of your remaining questions, and there are several help pages that you can browse for more information.
 * A glossary of our technical jargon, and some hints for dealing with the more common communication issues.
 * If you have anything to ask about or suggest, we have several discussion rooms. Feel free to ask any other editors in person if you have any problems or question, by posting a message on their talk page.

You are encouraged to add a BabelBox to your userpage. This shows which languages you know, so other editors know which languages you'll be working on, and what they can ask you for help with.

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! -Aearthrise (   𓂀      ) 15:55, 11 August 2018 (UTC)

ἀγγελθήσοιατο
Where did you find this word? It looks theoretically correct, but has an accent farther back than the antepenult, which Module:grc-accent complains about. I can add an exception if there's a source for it. — Eru·tuon 01:02, 5 September 2018 (UTC)


 * here: ἀγγέλλω in the first three future tense tabs. RexPrincipum (talk) 01:03, 5 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Oh, duh. (Why didn't I look there?) Okay, so it's an error in Module:grc-conj, which generates the table. It should be accented . I'll see if I can fix that. — Eru·tuon 01:12, 5 September 2018 (UTC)

Okay, the same error is popping up at ἀγγείλωμαιμι and ἀγγείληταισι. You shouldn't save the page when there's an error message, because it means Module:grc-conj is generating an incorrect form. On the other hand, it points to what I need to correct. — Eru·tuon 03:50, 6 September 2018 (UTC)
 * So should I make the page next time it happens, or not? RexPrincipum (talk) 21:32, 6 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Don't make the page. No verb forms break this accent rule, as far as I know. — Eru·tuon 22:01, 6 September 2018 (UTC)

Ancient Greek inflections
We have a script called WT:ACCEL that lets you automatically create these, once it's set up to handle Ancient Greek. It's probably easier than doing it all manually. —Rua (mew) 23:14, 6 September 2018 (UTC)
 * What is needed to be done for this to happen? Could I do anything to assist? RexPrincipum (talk) 01:13, 7 September 2018 (UTC)
 * It must be maddening to recommence the conjugation process of every verb that you create! Aearthrise (   𓂀      ) 03:09, 7 September 2018 (UTC)
 * What do you mean? RexPrincipum (talk) 21:35, 7 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Asking at WT:GP is probably the best right now. The method for setting up languages in this system is currently being overhauled. —Rua (mew) 10:01, 7 September 2018 (UTC)

Participles
In entries for participles like and, make sure to use the Participle header and use the  or  templates for the masculine nominative singular and  for the other forms. The templates place the entries in and  rather than. Unfortunately existing entries may not be consistent. — Eru·tuon 18:30, 10 September 2018 (UTC)
 * When I do that (at least for the citation form), it gives me a module error. RexPrincipum (talk) 15:01, 11 September 2018 (UTC)
 * You mean a module error in or ? Look at the template documentation. You might be forgetting the feminine and neuter forms, which you can enter using . If the stem has a long or short alpha, iota, or upsilon, you should also add that. — Eru·tuon 18:11, 11 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Oops, I realize there isn't documentation for the participle templates. and  use the same parameters as the participle templates (except they add deg, which isn't relevant to participles), so you can look there for more information. — Eru·tuon 18:29, 11 September 2018 (UTC)

Pronounciation
Hello. Just want to inform you that "" is actually a misspelling of "". A bot was recently deployed to correct this mistake. KevinUp (talk) 19:50, 21 January 2019 (UTC)

Nahuatl
I am probably not the most proficient in classical Nahuatl (though solid progress) however I guess I got into the right books and it may be that I can help you with a question. Ichwerdennsonstthebest (talk) 11:09, 6 November 2023 (UTC)
