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 on Wiktionary's page formatting; all entries must conform to it. The easiest way to start off is to copy the contents of an existing same-language entry, and then adapt it to fit the entry you are creating.
 * Check out Language considerations to find out more about how to edit for a particular language.
 * Our Criteria for Inclusion (CFI) defines exactly which words can be added to Wiktionary; 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.
 * If you have any questions, bring them to Information desk or ask me on my talk page.
 * Whenever commenting on any discussion page, please sign your posts with four tildes which automatically produces your username and timestamp.
 * You are encouraged to add a BabelBox to your userpage to indicate your self-assessed knowledge of languages.

Enjoy your stay at Wiktionary! —Justin ( koavf ) ❤T☮C☺M☯ 21:27, 27 February 2024 (UTC)
 * I see you created ⍼. I appreciate you taking the initiative, but note that we don't have entries on every Unicode character on purpose: they need to meet the Criteria for inclusion. Now, that page does not have an explicit section on emojis and various Unicode characters, so there have been a number of deletion discussions about individual characters like this. I would recommend that if you want to have it persist that you show usage of the character and try to figure out what it means. Otherwise, I imagine that it would fail at Votes for deletion. All that said, I personally am in favor of having such entries, but I know for a fact that is not a universal sentiment. :/ —Justin ( koavf ) ❤T☮C☺M☯ 21:27, 27 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Thanks! This is very helpful. It is an interesting item to me -- the contradiction of being defined as meaningless. I'll add some items to the citations page. Wshallwshall (talk) 16:01, 29 February 2024 (UTC)
