floccinaucinihilipilification

Etymology
+

A jocular coinage, apparently by pupils at, combining a number of Latin word stems. The word was inspired by a line present in various editions of William Lily's (c. 1468–1522) Latin grammars published around the 17th–19th centuries (including the Eton Latin Grammar), in which some nouns commonly used in the genitive case with some verbs like  and  are listed, which express evaluating something as worthless or as previously mentioned; see the reference.

Pronunciation

Noun

 * 1)  The act or habit of describing or regarding something as unimportant, of having no value or being worthless.

Translations

 * Chinese:
 * Mandarin: 把某東西看作是無價值的
 * Dutch:
 * Finnish:
 * German:
 * Latin: floccinaucinihilipilificatio
 * Malay: memperkecil
 * Norwegian: bagatellisering
 * Swedish: bagatellisering, förringning

Trivia

 * Often cited as the longest non-technical word in the English language, being one letter longer than the well-known . It was the longest word ever recorded in Parliament after Conservative MP Jacob Rees-Mogg used it in a 2012 debate, until the record was broken in 2017 by Michael Bryan with the word.

Wiktionary:Page deletion guidelines

fr:Wiktionnaire:Suppression

For current English words/terms requested to be deleted, see Requests for deletion/English (WT:RFDE).

The following are guidelines on what to delete and what not to, and how to do it or request it. It covers both speedy deletion and deletion by consensus.

What to delete and what to keep

 * The general rule is that anything that apparently doesn’t meet Criteria for inclusion is a candidate for deletion.
 * Any of the following may be the basis for a speedy (i.e. immediate) deletion request:
 * Complete rubbish: The contents don’t make sense or are clearly someone’s idea of a joke.  If the material is clearly obscene or libellous, you should also edit the page to a blank state.  Before you request to delete, try to make sure that the article doesn’t fall under “Never heard the word” or “Good title, garbage content” below.
 * Title misspelled: Move the article to the correct title.  If there is already an article at the correct title merge any useful material on there.  Occasionally, a misspelling may be so common that it needs to be noted, or it may be an accepted variant spelling of the word.  In that case the article should be retained, but reduced to a simple explanation of the situation.  In the case of alternate spellings, the substantive article may be under either spelling.  Preference should be given to the more common spelling, but where this cannot be determined give preference to the spelling under which the article was first created.
 * Protologisms: Words that have been made up by the poster. Request to be deleted as described below.
 * Self-promotion: Pages which appear to promote some specific person or entity are discouraged, but should not be removed without time for discussion on Requests for deletion. Widely-used trademarks are generally OK, since including them in Wiktionary is not likely to have any significant impact. The main concern is that Wiktionary not be used as a vehicle to promote a person or entity.
 * Licence violations: Pages whose content has been copied from another source, where that source is protected by a current copyright or otherwise incompatible with our Terms of Use.
 * Good title, garbage content: Someone either didn’t know what they were doing, or was having their idea of fun.
 * Check the history. If a legitimate entry has been overwritten, click on the link for that version, click on “Edit”, and save with the comment “rv vandalism”.
 * If not, but you can provide a good definition, do so.
 * If you don’t have anything meaningful to put there it is better to delete the page; this will leave all links to the page in red telling everyone that the page still needs to be done.

The most common reasons for deletion by consensus are “this entry is not idiomatic” (from and “this entry does not exist” (from ).

When in doubt, it is usually better to give the benefit of the doubt to keeping the entry. This has a positive effect on the overall communal mental health.
 * Things to keep
 * Stubs: These are not the problem that they are in Wikipedia. Some very brief entries are satisfactorily complete when they only describe that a particular word as a variant spelling of another, or that it is an inflected form. Other substandard short entries may be improved rapidly. If there is apparently correct and relevant content, use Requests for cleanup.
 * Frequently occurring misspellings and ungrammatical forms: This is not a mandate to keep all manner of misspelled words and typos; there should be an instructive quality to the retention. These should explain the error and link to the correct form. Forms with diacritics missing should also be kept, explained and linked to the correct spelling. For example, seperate contains the text.

How to do it

 * If, having read the above, you feel sure an entry should be deleted:
 * Put at the top of the entry if you believe it qualifies for immediate deletion. An administrator will either delete it, untag it or retag it with  (see below).
 * Put at the top of the language section.
 * Add a link to the unwanted page in Requests for deletion. The quickest way is to click on the cross (+).
 * Include a brief explanation as to why you think the page should be deleted.
 * Sign your suggestion for deletion (use four tildes, ~, to sign with your user name and the current date). This will allow people to contact you in case of questions about your proposal.
 * Continue to comment on the debate as it progresses if you wish to.
 * Please note that the same process applies to individual definitions. Therefore, individual definitions should only be speedily deleted if they are clearly nonsense or vandalism. Or, unlike whole pages, where two definitions are clearly the same they may be merged without going through WT:RFD. This should be clearly marked in the edit summary to avoid accusations of trying to clandestinely delete the definition.

Notes to administrators
Administrators have no special status in determining which pages to delete. Their job is to implement the consensus of the community. If there is any uncertainty about whether there is such a consensus, it is safer not to delete the page, but instead flag it RFD or RFV.

Some entries are clearly rubbish and should be speedily deleted. However, for everything but the most blatant entries, a quick check on Google Books should be made. And since not all durably archived materials are on Google Books, try other searches like Google Scholar, Google Groups and Google itself.

 * 1) If there’s debate on WT:RFD or WT:RFV (or more rarely on other forums), clearly indicate why the entry has been deleted and by whom.
 * 2) Click on What links here and fix any links that are going to be broken. Remember not all red links are undesirable.
 * 3) Delete the talk page and any subpages first, since they are not automatically deleted along with the page.
 * 4) Delete the page.
 * 5) If the page is listed on Requests for deletion or Requests for verification, add a comment saying that it was deleted.

To delete a page

 * 1) On the page itself, click the arrow between history and the search bar located above the page content. Choose 'delete', give a reason in the deletion box and confirm the delete. Good deletion summaries can prevent conflict later on.

Undeletion
If a page gets deleted, it remains in a state from which it can be undeleted. Anyone with deletion authority also has undeletion authority. If you consider that a page has been deleted unfairly you could either:

 * 1) Create it again. This may annoy people and possibly lead to a block (Blocking policy).
 * 2) Ask an administrator to undelete it, giving a valid reason.  The optimal situation is to address this to the administrator who deleted it in the first place, as they might have had cause to delete it that another admin would not be aware of.
 * 3) List the page on WT:RFD and clearly mark it as an undeletion request. Particularly useful for entries that have been deleted by consensus, as consensus can change over time.

yawiktionary
Does yawiktionary classify as a derived word? http://www.yawiktionary.com

 * Well, a derived jargon term. --Connel MacKenzie 08:06, 28 July 2006 (UTC)

Wikzionario
Is "Wikzionario" the official Italian translation of "Wiktionary"? It looks a bit of a monstrosity to me. W and K do not appear in native Italian words. I understand it is supposed to have "Wiki" in it somehow (although the Latin version doesn't, directly). Maybe "Vizionario" might be better, or "Wizionario" as a compromise. What do others think? Or is this already a done deal? -- Paul G 13:37, 19 Jan 2004 (UTC)

 * I don't have an opinion one way or the other. For what it's worth, the Italian Wikipedia just uses "Wikipedia" and doesn't try to translate it. -- Ortonmc 22:56, 19 Jan 2004 (UTC)

 * Italian Wiktionary actually uses the word Wikizionaro - from Wiki and Dizionario. SemperBlotto 23:02, 25 Feb 2005 (UTC)

pronunciation
Some anon thought the following was worth adding to the article:

The Wiktionary logo [ˈwɪkʃənrɪ] is incorrect and should be changed to [ˈwɪkʃən(ə)rɪ] or, for simplicity's sake, [ˈwɪkʃənərɪ]. (The ə sound is generally speaking more or less optional in most dictionary pronunciation guides.)

Reasons: Compare UK pronunciations of "dictionary" listed in reputable dictionaries, e.g., /ˈdɪkʃənərɪ/ (Oxford), /ˈdɪkʃən(ə)rɪ/ (Longman). In addition, US speakers will not feel that [ˈwɪkʃənərɪ] is completely incorrect, which is what they feel about [ˈwɪkʃənrɪ]. In fact, in order to be less provincial and to reflect the global character of (Wikipedia and) Wiktionary, the logo should show the pronunciations of both major kinds of English separately ([ˈwɪkʃənərɪ], [ˈwɪkʃənerɪ]) or combined [ˈwɪkʃən(ə/e)rɪ]

I'd suggest that the I-sounds in British English do differ and would suggest /ˈwɪkʃənri/ and between slashes because it's a broad transcription. Don't the I-sounds also differ in American English? Is there a policy on whether the transcription that appears in the graphic should be American, modern British or RP, which is an archaic British and scarcely spoken. pauldanon

(Comment: the symbols ɻ and i look strange and are not helpful; please provide a link. Is there really a different i sound at the end than at the beginning and than in UK English? Instead, I would suggest [ˈwɪkʃənerɪ])

 * "Don't the I-sounds also differ in American English?"
 * Yes, we differentiate them as well, pronouncing the word as [ˈdɪkʃəˌnɛri], so [ˈwɪkʃən(ə/ɛ)ri] would accomodate both the UK and US pronunciations. --Undomelin 03:53, 27 June 2009 (UTC)

 * I agree with changing the logo to [ˈwɪkʃən(ə)rɪ]. --Abdull 11:32, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Agreed. Nobody leaves out the sound between the n and the r. Also note that the Wikipedia entry sports a new logo. -kslays 16:09, 23 February 2007 (UTC)

 * I posted a similar item to the following in the FAQ discussion as well:
 * If the pronunciation of a particular word is contentious, I don't believe that one of the possible pronunciations should be "shouted" from the top of every page on the site. In this case, where the Wiktionary logo contains a contentious pronunciation of the name of the site, the majority of the world's English speakers are being alienated. This is a major turn-off and reduces the perceived reliability of the site as a whole. The local dialect pronunciations of this word should be merely pointed out in wiktionary, not fought on the site's FAQ. --Gadlen 18:46, 11 March 2008 (UTC)

The final vowel should be a tense /i/ (words tend not to end in lax vowels; the vowel sounds more like in bead (/bid/) than bid (/bId/)), so that it rhymes with dictionary. I have made the correction. Eb.eric 04:42, 3 February 2009 (UTC)

The [r] should also be [ɹ]. The [r] is a trilled R, which is not found at all in standard US or UK English, let alone in this word. I suggest [ɹ] over [ɻ] because the latter looks substantially more unfamiliar to a naive reader; either way, it's embarrassing as it is currently.

+English?
Should ==English== be at the top of this, and all headers dewikified like all other articles? --Connel MacKenzie 20:57, 6 May 2005 (UTC)

 * On de-wikifying matter, yes and no. Yes, because it is an article, and a user might look to this is a paragon of articles. No, because it's a special article, and linking to the headers seems somehow appropriate.
 * On the ==English== matter, I think it should be. Although this is technically not an English word as such, it is term used in English, and there are other terms in other languages, as evidenced by the translation table. This would of course mean adding other language headers for those that use the same word. --Wytukaze 16:11, 7 May 2005 (UTC)

Logo
This article has a difrent definition af Wiktionary than the logo wich has "a wiki-based Open Content dictionary". Should we change the definition? Pyramide

Another thing wrong with the logo is the difference in pronunciation of Wiktionary in the logo and the article. 24.71.246.81 04:12, 24 March 2006 (UTC)

 * For as long as I've been here, I've wanted the logo changed. There is significant resistance to changing it though; at the time it was devised, it was clever and appropriate.  The general formatting style has changed significantly since 2002.  At least one of the pronunciations actually does match the Royal British RP that was originally entered (although I had to pull teeth for about a year to get it.)  --Connel MacKenzie T C 06:45, 24 March 2006 (UTC)

I have no problem with the RP stress patterning in the logo, however, the word final lax vowel is probably a no-no. I'm not familiar with any dialect of English in which lax vowels are allowed in open syllables. A more accurate RP transcription is probably [ˈwɪkʃənri]. Indeed, the entry for the word "Wiktionary" includes three pronunciations, all of which have a high front unrounded tense vowel /i/ word-finally. This is something that should probably be changed. ibarrere 16:28, 26 January 2014 (UTC)

Adding Urdu Dictoinary

Translations
Excuse me, but are any of the words different in the two translation tables for 'wiktionary as the project' and 'wiktionary as the dictionary'? I do not seem to notice any differences.

This page wiktionary is blocked. I can't modify it. Would you please change the Sicilian Wiktionary name "Wikizionariu" in "Wikizziunariu"? "The new name is the correct name ("wiki" + "dizziunariu" = "wikizziunariu"). The former name was wrong because it was written in italianized Sicilian.

I suggest the pronunciation offered for "Wiktionary" needs refining, with an optional (a) in the last syllable: ...(a)rI. At least, that is how it is pronounced here in Ontario, Canada.

RFV discussion 2
Can someone explain to me why Wiktionary failed RFV per inclusion of brands? The Citations:Wiktionary are the following ones: The requirements on the brand to be included are the following: Which of the requirements R2-R4 do the provided citations of "Wiktionary" fail? Do all the citations fail the requirements or do some of the citations meet the requirements R2-R4?
 * Q1: 2008, John Broughton, Wikipedia: the missing manual, O'Reilly Media, page 428
 * The sister projects that the Wikimedia foundation supports, such as Wiktionary, fulfill some of the roles that Wikipedia does not.
 * Q2: 2009, Isabel González-Pueyo, Teaching Academic and Professional English Online, Peter Lang, page 169
 * Besides the renowned Wiktionary (http://www.wiktionary.org/), a multilingual, Web-based project to create a free content dictionary, available in over 150 languages and run by the Wikimedia foundation...
 * Q3: 2009, Thanaruk Theeramunkong, Boonserm Kijsirikul, Nick Cercone, Tu Bao Ho, Advances in Knowledge Discovery and Data Mining: 13th Pacific-Asia Conference, PAKDD 2009 Bangkok, Thailand, April 27-30, 2009 Proceedings, Springer, page 275
 * In this regard, we are planning to incorporate dynamic linguistic resources such as Wiktionary to complement the encyclopaedic nature of Wikipedia.
 * R1. It is used in at least three durably archived independent citations by different authors spanning a period of at least three years;
 * R2. The citations do not identify the type of product to which the brand name applies, either by stating the class of product, or by stating some feature of the product known to be unique to the class of product;
 * R3. The citations are not written by or about the manufacturer of the product, nor are they by or about a person, group, or agency associated with the manufacture or sale of the type of product;
 * R4. The citations are not from a source which is about the type of product in general.

If some of the citations meet the requirements, I would add more citations so that "Wiktionary" can be included. I do not claim to fully understand the requirements. --Dan Polansky 09:03, 11 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Uh, Votes/pl-2007-07/Brand names of products is not the policy. That vote failed, and was restructured as Votes/2007-08/Brand names of products 2, which passed. --Yair rand (talk) 09:47, 11 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Oh, I am sorry; I should have looked at Votes/pl-2007-08/Brand names of products 2. Which of the requirements stated in that vote do the citations above or their sources fail? Do all the citations fail the requirements? --Dan Polansky 11:10, 11 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Well, if we take Wiktionary to be "a brand name for a physical product" (such that Criteria for inclusion applies), then the Wikimedia Foundation must fall somewhere in the set of "the manufacturer, distributors, retailers, marketers, and advertisers, their parent companies, subsidiaries, and affiliates", such that the 2008 and first 2009 citations are invalid. And the second 2009 quotation seems to be "stating explicitly or implicitly some feature or use of the product from which its type and purpose may be surmised, or some inherent quality that is necessary for an understanding of the author’s intent". So if — if — we apply the brand-name-for-a-physical-product requirements, then I don't think any of those quotations is valid. (If we don't apply those requirements, then I have no idea which rules do apply. Criteria for inclusion?) —Ruakh TALK 11:16, 11 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Do you say that the citations fail to meet the following requirement: "The source of the citation must be independent of any parties with economic interest in the product, including the manufacturer, distributors, retailers, marketers, and advertisers, their parent companies, subsidiaries, and affiliates, at time of authorship"? Or any other requirement?
 * I have broken down for me the requirements as follows:
 * There must be three independent citations spanning a period of at least three years, from durably archived sources, such that each of the following requirements holds of each citation.
 * R1: The source of the citation must be independent of any parties with economic interest in the product, including the manufacturer, distributors, retailers, marketers, and advertisers, their parent companies, subsidiaries, and affiliates, at time of authorship.
 * R2: The source of the citation must not identify any such parties mentioned in the previous point.
 * R3: The source of the citation must not indicate any legal protection of the brand name as a trademark.
 * R4: The source of the citation must not be written by any person or group associated with the type of product.
 * R5: The source of the citation must not be written about any person or group specifically associated with the product.
 * R6: The source of the citation must not be written about the type of product in general.
 * R7: The text preceding and surrounding the citation must not identify the product to which the brand name applies, whether by stating explicitly or implicitly some feature or use of the product from which its type and purpose may be surmised[inferred?], or some inherent quality that is necessary for an understanding of the author’s intent.
 * The second citation seems to fail R7; I can find citations that hopefully meet R7 if this is the major problem. --Dan Polansky 11:34, 11 October 2010 (UTC)
 * "Wiktionary" is not a brand of a physical product, but I have assumed that the "physical" differentia is mainly irrelevant anyway; "Windows" by Microsoft would also come under that regulation regardless of whether it is a physical product. Formally, CFI would have to be amended, and "physical" would have to be removed, but I take WT:BRAND to apply to "Wiktionary", for the sake of this argument anyway. --Dan Polansky 11:40, 11 October 2010 (UTC)
 * The first citation seems to fail R2. --Dan Polansky 11:44, 11 October 2010 (UTC)

 * What about Q4: 'The term vibe is also defined in the Wiktionary as "The atmosphere or aura of a person ..."'. Which requirement does it fail? Does "defined in the X" imply that X is a dictionary, leading to the failure of R7? --Dan Polansky 11:49, 11 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Yes, precisely. See [[Wiktionary:Criteria for inclusion/Brand names]]. —msh210℠ (talk) 20:00, 11 October 2010 (UTC)
 * So you say that Q4 fails R7. From what specific text of Criteria for inclusion/Brand names does it follow? If a word is defined in X, how do you know that X is a dictionary rather than a book on a specific subject that also contains definitions, as many scholarly texts do? I am not convinced. Of course, the very name "Wiktionary" is suggestive of its being a dictionary, but that should not really count toward anything. And on the wording of R7: "The text preceding and surrounding the citation must not identify the product to which the brand name applies": what does it mean to identify a product? The product is the particular work, right? Does the author of the sentence mean "product type" ("dictionary") rather than "product" ("Wiktionary")?
 * See my response below. DAVilla 14:29, 14 October 2010 (UTC)
 * What do you say about Q3, given above?
 * What do you say about Q6, given below? --Dan Polansky 07:14, 12 October 2010 (UTC)
 * What about Q5, as vulnerable to R7 as Q4: "Wiktionary defines luck as, "Something that happens to someone by chance, a chance occurrence."
 * More quotes of the sort of Q4 and Q5 can be found in Google books.
 * What about Q6: "If you were to build a viewer based on Wikipedia or Wiktionary and prevent users from interacting with WV, they would only be able to view the entry that came up based on the word they typed into a filed you provide for them on the layout."
 * Some of the criteria mentioned are very sound, especially R1, but, if this word fails RfV, then rules have to be improved. Another rule states that we accept all words, everybody seems to forget this other rule. Lmaltier 17:26, 12 October 2010 (UTC)
 * I have added some quotations to Citations:Wiktionary. From what I can see, they could be vulnerable to R7, but I really wonder how the case that they fail R7 would be specifically argued. --Dan Polansky 11:06, 13 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Q6 passes, I think. This cite might work, as it's not completely clear that it's referencing a dictionary, but the one above it probably doesn't pass R7. Q3 probably doesn't pass R1. --Yair rand (talk) 21:25, 13 October 2010 (UTC)
 * How does does Q3 fail R1? The authors of the Q3 scholarly article are from School of Computer Science and Software Engineering, University of Western Australia. What has this to do with "R1: The source of the citation must be independent of any parties with economic interest in the product, including the manufacturer, distributors, retailers, marketers, and advertisers, their parent companies, subsidiaries, and affiliates, at time of authorship"? --Dan Polansky 06:58, 18 October 2010 (UTC)

[unindent] I'm sure the wording could use some refinement, and although it was that wording that passed the vote, it may be useful for me to clarify the intent. By "identifying the product" one would be giving as much information about the product as is necessary to understand the quotation. So if Wiktionary were noted as a dictionary then the citation would almost certainly not count. (A counterexample might be something that refers to the wiki rather than dictionary aspect of Wiktionary without further explanation. "ABigCat.com is to Rosetta as Wiktionary is to Webster." I couldn't imagine any author using this in analogy, so the example is mostly theoretical. The Jonathan Stars quotation is good as it seems to not indicate either.) In my view, even though some of the newer quotations do not state the product type, they identify Wiktionary as a place where things are defined, which (unless I missed something) is all that's really necessary to understand the meaning. DAVilla 14:29, 14 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Let me ask specifically: which of the four quotations Q3-Q6 do pass the requirements, according to your reading of the requirements? (Q1 and Q2 are out, as they mention Wikimedia.) --Dan Polansky 07:02, 18 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Q3 identifies Wiktionary as a "dynamic linguistic resource". Q5&6 identify Wiktionary as a place where words are defined. "An understanding of the author’s intent" could be gained without the example, by saying passively (with no subject) words are defined as such and such. In my view, only Q4 has any claim. It does not occur in a parenthetical or nonessential phrase, being used in fact to explain another idea. No appositive substitutes as a synonym, nor more generally does Jonathan Stars explain the term anywhere in the work. It's not a great citation since you really only have to understand that these webpages are interactive to get his point, plus you could guess at what Wiktionary is knowing the meaning of Wikipedia (the rules are not clear here), but arguably interactive webpage doesn't technically "identify the product" with any information that would indicate "its type and purpose". DAVilla 18:20, 30 October 2010 (UTC)

Striking, as the discussion seems to be dead. No one seems to actively disagree with DAVilla's last comment. The discussion can certainly be revived in the future, should anyone wish to revive it. —Ruakh TALK 18:13, 13 January 2011 (UTC)

Wiktionary ≠ Word?

The current revision of "Citations:Wiktionary" contains a number of citations.

I believe the first four of them (just the first four!) are enough for the entry Wiktionary to be attested according to the rules of WT:BRAND. (In fact, one of these citations is listed at Citations:Wikipedia too, presumably to attest "Wikipedia".) --Daniel. 01:01, 23 May 2011 (UTC)
 * The first and fourth cites in that revision do IMO count as good. In the second and third, the context that makes clear that Wiktionary's a source of a definition. Now, that doesn't imply it's a dictionary (math books have definitions, for example), so I'd like to say those are good w.r.t. BRAND, too, but I seek others' opinions. Note further that the second and third cites are of self-published books (possibly available only online??), the use of which as citations for RFV purposes I know some people object to. —msh210℠ (talk) 20:22, 23 May 2011 (UTC)

Logo - Pronunciation of Wiktionary
The logo is still wrong, while this entry has the correct pronunciation indicated. I strongly suggest the community to check all English entries for [r], the trilled "r", which is neither RP nor GA. [ɹ] should be used instead. A counterargument I often hear are that there is no confusion and that [ɾ], [ɹ] and [r] are allophonic. However, using the latter definitely shows a foreign accent. Another counterargument is that it's easier to type [r] than [ɹ], but laziness is not an excuse at all. Finally people might say that [ɹ] is too confusing for people and that we should keep it simple. That is not the intention of IPA. IPA should help people to pronounce words correctly whatever their native language is. If someone is confused, then they should probably first learn what IPA is and what the symbols mean.You may argue that [r] is just a broad transcription. No, it's not. It's an entirely different sound produced very differently than [ɹ] although they are both written as "r". It's not that we forgot to add diacritics, the two sounds have nothing else in common. If we keep writing [r] instead of [ɹ], that means if every language decides on it its own which symbol corresponds to which sound, IPA loses its meaning. It would be just an alphabet, not a phonetic transcription. --2.245.192.127 14:44, 24 August 2014 (UTC)

 * Wiktionary did not fail any RFD discussion, as per Talk:Wiktionary; the only RFD discussion there is Talk:Wiktionary and it seems to have been not a RFD proper but rather a request to help resolve the inbound links. Talk:Wiktionary contains two archived RFV discussions; Talk:Wiktionary discusses whether the provided quotations meet WT:BRAND. Logs for Wiktionary entry show the entry was deleted on 18 August 2010 as "Failed RFV" but then it was restored on the same day: "restore until Special:WhatLinksHere/Wiktionary has been addressed". The question probably still remains whether Citations:Wiktionary has citations meeting WT:BRAND. The following citation is example of what I think meets WT:BRAND: 'The Wiktionary says that an atheist is "A person who does not believe that deities exist; one who lacks belief in gods"'; definitions are found not only in dictionaries. --Dan Polansky (talk) 08:06, 23 August 2019 (UTC)
 * I would say that "The Wiktionary" is quite possibly just a mistake for "Wiktionary" -- someone not knowing how to correctly refer to it. (What they quote is our old definition e.g. at .) You see it as something more than this? Mihia (talk) 16:51, 30 August 2019 (UTC)
 * My only concern is whether the quotation supports WT:BRAND; it seems to me that it does, and if you think it doesn't, let's hear what part of WT:BRAND it fails and why. --Dan Polansky (talk) 17:06, 30 August 2019 (UTC)
 * I don't claim to understand WT:BRAND. However, I just assumed that referring to a brand name in its normal meaning would not qualify. For example, a citation "Collins Dictionary says that an atheist is ..." would not be grounds for our including an entry for "Collins Dictionary", would it? Your quote is likely just the same as this, except miswritten. Mihia (talk) 17:12, 30 August 2019 (UTC)
 * The particular wording of WT:BRAND has to be used to exclude a quotation. A quotation using the term "Collins Dictionary" fails "must not identify the product or service to which the brand name applies"; this does not apply to "Wiktionary" unless one considers the term "Wiktionary" to automatically fail by its *tionary shape. --Dan Polansky (talk) 17:23, 30 August 2019 (UTC)
 * I don't understand what you mean, unless it is a silly quibble about "Collins Dictionary" including the word "Dictionary". Just substitute anything else. Does a citation 'Wiktionary says that an atheist is "A person who does not believe that deities exist; one who lacks belief in gods"' support inclusion of "Wiktionary" or not? If it does, then you could substitute any normal reference to any brand name. Mihia (talk) 17:38, 30 August 2019 (UTC)
 * What I mean is indeed in reference to "Collins Dictionary" containing the word "dictionary" and that is in reference to "The text preceding and surrounding the citation must not identify the product or service to which the brand name applies, whether by stating explicitly or implicitly some feature or use of the product or service from which its type and purpose may be surmised, or some inherent quality that is necessary for an understanding of the author’s intent." But maybe I am applying it wrongly and I should look at text preceding and surrounding the quotation rather than at the quotation itself. In fact, reading the policy as written, it would be okay if the quotation itself identified the product or service; it is just the text around it that must not do so. I find the quoted passage of WT:BRAND really unfortunate and worthy of removal. In any case, what matters is the wording of WT:BRAND, not vague hunches that make no reference to the wording. As for your question, you can see that whether a quotation supports WT:BRAND depends not only on the quotation itself but also on the text around the quotation. Link to the text around is at Citations:Wiktionary. Using the wording of WT:BRAND, it seems to me that the quotation and the text around it support inclusion of Wiktionary. --Dan Polansky (talk) 18:40, 30 August 2019 (UTC)
 * I think technically you may be applying it wrongly since "Dictionary" is actually a part of the brand name, but all this is missing the main point that I am trying to make, which is how is 'Wiktionary says that an atheist is ...' different from any possible citation that you could find that refers to any brand name in its ordinary capacity, and if such a citation qualifies "Wiktionary" for inclusion then we could find an essentially analogous citation to support inclusion of any brand name whatsoever, which surely cannot be the intention of WT:BRAND. This is what I do not understand. It can't just be because the text does not say "by the way, for those who don't know, Wiktionary is a dictionary", can it? This would be dependent on readership. Some gaming magazine or whatever might refer to a video game that you and I have never heard of, without saying "by the way, this is a video game". Mihia (talk) 19:59, 30 August 2019 (UTC)
 * (outdent) A point of contrast is "Besides the renowned Wiktionary (http://www.wiktionary.org/), a multilingual, Web-based project to create a free content dictionary, available in over 150 languages and run by the Wikimedia foundation...": this clearly states what Wiktionary is, and therefore, does not imply that readers are supposed to know what Wiktionary is without introduction or description. A quotation that uses a brand name of a game in a game magazine would fail "The sources also must not be written ... about the type of product or service in general" in WT:BRAND. --Dan Polansky (talk) 06:39, 31 August 2019 (UTC)
 * OK, I see. Well, as I say, I do not claim to understand "WT:BRAND", but I just assumed it would be stronger than allowing any mentions of something that assume readers will understand what it means. Mihia (talk) 23:36, 9 September 2019 (UTC)

 * Keep: Citations:Wiktionary has quotations that AFAICS support WT:BRAND. Bringing this to RFV will bring nothing: we do have attesting quotations, and they need to be assessed as for meeting WT:BRAND. --Dan Polansky (talk) 07:24, 8 September 2019 (UTC)

Proper noun

 * 1) The short month following January and preceding March in the Roman, Julian, and Gregorian calendars, used in all three calendars for intercalation or addition of leap days.
 * 2) * 2011, Robert A. Kaster trans. Macrobius, Saturnalia, Book I, Chapter xiii, Sections 3–5:
 * ...The second he [sc. King Numa] dedicated to the god Februus, who is believed to control rites of purification: the community had to be purified in that month, when he determined that the Good Gods be paid the offerings due them... Numa soon added one day to January, paying honor to the mystery of the odd number that nature revealed even before Pythagoras: as a result, both the year as a whole and the individual months (save February) had an odd number of days. (If all twelve months had either an odd or even number of days, their total would be an even number...)
 * 1) * 2011, Robert A. Kaster trans. Macrobius, Saturnalia, Book I, Chapter xiii, Sections 14–15:
 * February was set aside for the intercalation because it was the last month of the year... They departed from the Greeks in one respect, however: whereas the latter intercalated when the final month was over, the Romans intercalated after the twenty-third day of February, at the conclusion of the Terminalia. They then added on the last five days of February after the intercalary period, acting on the religious scruple of ancient custom, I think, so that March would follow on February no matter what.
 * 1) * 2011, Robert A. Kaster trans. Macrobius, Saturnalia, Book I, Chapter xiv, Sections 6–7:
 * Julius Caesar, then, added ten days to the old practice, so that the 365 days in which the sun circles the zodiac would make a year; and to account for the one-quarter day, he ordained that the priests who attended to the months and days would insert one day every fourth year, in the same month and place where the ancients used to intercalate a month, that is, before the last five days of February, and he decreed that it be called the 'twice sixth'... he added no days to February, so that the religious observances offered to the gods of the dead would not be changed...
 * Susan was born on February 29.

Etymology 2
From, from , from , from , from.

Usage notes
Both march (noun) and land (noun) are predisposed idiomatically to be used in the plural such that a single region is conceived as a collection of smaller locales; thus, in the marches, in the borderlands, and in the badlands are often not different denotationally from in the march, in the borderland, and in the badland although they are trivially different grammatically and connotatively.
