I started contributing on 21.02.2003, because I believe that having a fairly complete free multilingual dictionary in every language will make the World a better place.

I'll do mostly English-Finnish-English, maybe some other stuff too.

I know Finnish and English well. I know moderatelly Swedish and Russian I know some in French and German

User:Jukeboksi/Thoughts on improving syntax and software for wikipedia

Thoughts on improving syntax and software for wikipedia to advance the project
I've glanced at the way Wiktionary works at the moment, and I think that this technological platform and free form syntax works ok for Wikipedia, but poses a few problems in Wiktionary.

A clearly defined syntax combined with some additional software to build automatical dependencies could:

 * Reduce the amount of unnecessary, redundant manual editing required to reach the final goal of creating a dictionary and thesaurus in every language.

 * Provide protection from vandalism.

Question:
If a word is know to be ONLY a noun in languages a, b and c and it is also known that in languges a, b and c the word in UNAMBIGUOUS...

then why the %&€#&% does it have to be manually translated

from a to b from a to c from b to a from b to c from c to a from c to b

in order to achieve a dictionary in all three languages of the planet?????

 * If you have n languages and one word which corresponds to exactly n-1 words in the other languages then in the current system you'll have to make n(n-1)=n^2-n entries. If you use the symmetry between 2 languages (e.g. you know free<-->frei) you'll still have to write (n^2-n)/2 entries. If you use transitivity (free<->frei<->libre) you will only have to make n entrys. But things get more complicated once one word has more than one meaning. As someone noted somewhere else you should translate meanings and not words. But sometimes there is no single word for translation. Then you need to translate to a phrase.
 * But to add a lot of those phrases to a language is also uncomfortable....
 * - Henryk911 12:20 Feb 22, 2003 (UTC)

Example:
If a bottle (noun) (English) known to be only a noun in English and is also known, that it translates to Finnish only to pullo (noun) and only a noun in the Finnish language, then why isn't this correlation automatically propagated to other languages?

For example: If someone enters flaska (noun) known to be only a noun in (Swedish) in the Swedish Wiktionary and translates it to English as a bottle, why can't there be a software component, that automatically adds the Finnish translation into the Swedish Wiktionary? Additions made to Wiktionaries by software could have a different colour, until some human has checked them to be sane.

Anwser:
Because there is no shared namespace, where all language namespaces would recide, and in the namespace of a language there is no namespace for classes of words and there is no agreement to mark-up whether a word in language X, class Y can have many distinct meanings, in which case it would be excluded from automated propagation.

and

Because there is no definitive syntax guide (and therefore the syntax cannot be enforced or utilised by software) to do such automatic propagation of information, which is just silly.

Problems for implementing such a scheme such as:

 * - Words can be of multiple class: English "can" is a verb and a noun, but this could be solved with consistent syntax/markup.

 * - Words can mean multiple things in the same class: The word for peace (noun) and world (noun) are the same in Russian (Mir). This could be solved by asking people to mark if a word means many things (true/false) in the same class, in which case it would not be propageted by software.

 * - All languages don't have follow the western style of classifying words as noun, verb, adjective and so forth.

 * - Other problems?

Proposition
I propose that we use namespaces for languages and classes of words. This would of course require some changes in the software.

for example:

en:noun:true:bottle fi:noun:true:pullo se:noun:true:flaska

language:class:this_is_the_only_meaning_in_this_class:word

...or something like that. I'll elaborate on this.

 * I agree on the namespaces for languages. But the concept of nouns and so on are not common to every language, so that you'll lose flexibility. Maybe you should move this discussion to Beer parlour! Henryk911 02:35 Feb 22, 2003 (UTC)

User:Jukeboksi/Semi-Automatic Vandalism Detection

Initial Thoughts on Semi-Automatic Vandalism Detection ( SAVD ;)
The dependency-data from an automatical translation would be very useful for detecting, stopping and reversing vandalism.

Let me illustrate this point.

In Wikipedia when I make a change to an article it takes me some time, lots of concentration, Googleing, backtracking my subscribed RSS-feeds and consulting books which makes it very likely that I will put it on my Watchlist to see if someone axes my edits or what further info people input on the subject. I believe most people go about this Watchlist matter in the same way, which results in numerous eyeballs ready to catch vandalism, minor puns, POVs and so on.

In Wiktionary the contribution of adding a translation usually takes 10-30 seconds and when you get into the flow, you'll do these for half an hours straight and I have no interest to watch these articles (most likely thing to catch would be someone adding a translation in a language I don't have a clue about). Therefore it is much simpler to vandalise Wiktionary e.g. just change some translation to an obcenity and mark something else in the summary.

When utilising Wikipedia to get information, one can use common sense to filter out possibly unreliable information.

When utilising Wiktionary to get a translation, I'm really vulnerable to practical jokes, puns and obcenities whether human or bot created

This vulnerability (and the redundant manual work I've mentioned before) increases the chances that some people who feel almost religiously about the future of XML will fork a separate project from the Wiktionary to illustrate the power of meta-data and alleviate some headaches and frustrations

Comments, arguments and further thinking are very welcome.

y'all

Etymology
, and/or  from. Attested since at least 1631.

Compare (originally ) for a similar development of a new plural pronoun out of Proto-Germanic  that originally was already plural.

Usage notes

 * The form is heard primarily in the Southern United States, and nationwide in AAVE. It is also found among Indian speakers of South African English, and parts of the Carribean. Recently, the form has begun to be used by other American English speakers, as well, and even non-American English speakers to a lesser extent, though still less commonly than . For other second-personal plural pronouns, see .
 * In the past, y'all was never used as a proper singular, but it may have been used with an implied plural, e.g. "you [and your team]," "you [and your coworkers]," "you [and your family]." Due to a cultural shift in the United States by non-Southerners using the word, it is now rarely also used as a singular you, although most (increasing) non-Southern / non-AAVE use is, like Southern and AAVE use, plural.
 * Notwithstanding its etymology, the in  is merely a plural marker, not a quantifier. Thus, just as  may refer either to some of us or all of us in standard English,  may refer either to some of y'all or to all [of] y'all.
 * Y'all may not be considered informal speech, but is also not considered formal -- You all would, to a few, be considered more formal, but is not required in formal situations nor is it encouraged.

Usage notes

 * There is no precise moment when a word stops being "new", but 15–20 years is a common cutoff (corresponding to one generation growing up potentially familiar with the word, depending on how common it is). Acceptance of a word as valid by dictionaries or by a significant portion of the population are sometimes mentioned as additional conditions. Some neologisms become widespread and standard (such as new chemical element names), others remain rare or slangy. (Distinguish from protologisms, coinages which have not become common.)
