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!

Re: your e-mail.
Hi,

I got your e-mail. :-)

To leave a message on a user-talk page, you can just click the "+" tab at the top of it. This lets you add a new section to the page.

A username can't start with a lowercase letter, sorry. It does seem weird at first, but you get used to it. :-)  If you want, though, you can change your signature to display "williamlambton"; that's controlled by Special:Preferences. And you can make User:williamlambton and User talk:williamlambton be redirects to their capitalized counterparts, so that someone typing the lowercase version will still find you.

If you have any more questions, don't hesitate to ask!

Thanks! I thought that might be it! To keep things simple, I'll stick with the odd Williamlambton.

Kind regards,

williaM.

Missed out the tildes!
