Talk:philosophers' stone

A note on variations in placement of apostrophe: That seems like a 50/50 split - surprising. It would be nice to see some early citations. — Hippietrail 20:30, 14 August 2005 (UTC)
 * AHD lists philosophers' stone first, then philosopher's stone second.
 * Collins only lists philosopher's stone
 * Encarata lists philosopher's stone first, then philosophers' stone second.
 * M-W lists philosophers' stone first, then philosopher's stone second.

Welcome
Welcome!

Hello, and welcome to Wiktionary. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are a few good links for newcomers:
 * Wiktionary Tutorial
 * Community Portal
 * Entry layout explained
 * Criteria for inclusion
 * FAQ
 * How to edit a page
 * How to start a page
 * Wiktionary Sandbox (a safe place for testing syntax)

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wiktionarian! By the way, you can sign your name on Talk (discussion) and vote pages using four tildes, like this: ~~~~, which automatically produces your name and the current date. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the beer parlour or ask me on my Talk page. Again, welcome! --Dvortygirl 20:33, 14 August 2005 (UTC)

Re: Particulate
Kipmaster, You guys are quite right. The etymology for particulate had nothing to do with anything. It was pasted from a template and not updated. I have removed that material, and I invite you to replace it with your own. --Dvortygirl 03:04, 17 August 2005 (UTC)

Thanks for the snack
You're hired! You can do all the French audio you want...though we may want to get you a new microphone. It doesn't do your voice justice. And since you asked, kip does have a few meanings in English, none of them particularly common. --Dvortygirl 04:43, 27 September 2005 (UTC)

 * Kip (v & n) is very common as sleep in London. --Enginear 19:37, 31 August 2006 (UTC)

>>>Hi, I made some croissant for you. They are not as good as I would have liked, because of the poor quality of my microphone. Another Image:Fr-croissant.ogg also exists, and was recorded before mine (but is more noisy) --Kipmaster 20:59, 26 September 2005 (UTC)
 * Microphone quality, fixed. :-) —Dvortygirl 08:16, 31 January 2006 (UTC)

Answering requests
I have added audio to bird and homogeneous, at your request. Idiom requests can go here or here, but if you want something done quickly, best mention it to me directly, too. Those are both huge lists, and I probably won't see your request anytime soon. While we're at it, here's a link to the audio requests page. Wheeee! --Dvortygirl 05:48, 31 October 2005 (UTC)

bonjour
Hello, can you do what you did in French word of the day, with the tables and automatic thing. I would, but can't understand French! Put it here please, mersi --Dangherous 21:54, 3 January 2006 (UTC)

French translation
IMO, excellent french translation for "inasmuch as".
 * Thanks, I've added a translation for the second sense as well. Tell me if you need any other specific translation. Kipmaster 10:53, 5 February 2006 (UTC)

link lang
Hi Kip. About the language templates: AFAIK, Thai is up for debate, but Esperanto should certainly remain linked. Cheers. :-) — Vildricianus 19:24, 19 February 2006 (UTC)

 * That's certainly an ongoing discussion unless I'm mistaking. Your points make some valid arguments, but for the time being, I won't stir up any discussion about the selective linking (I don't have a clue which would be best, there's certainly some good arguments for as well). I have recently put something on the BP; more than what I asked there is not my concern for the time being. — Vildricianus 17:25, 20 February 2006 (UTC)

Invitation to contribute
Hi,

You might or might not already be aware that there is now a new system in place for marking translations that need to be checked (those that are suspected of being incorrect or those where it is not clear which sense(s) of a word the translations apply to). (See here for the Beer parlour discussion on this topic.)

Translations to be checked are now categorised by language. For example, Category:Translations_to_be_checked_(French) contains a list of all words where French translations need to be checked. This is designed to make the checking of these translations easier to maintain and work with.

I'm contacting everyone who has either expressed an interest in working on translations or has indicated in Babel that they have a good knowledge of a particular foreign language or languages.

Would you be interested in helping out with the translations to be checked for French? If so, please read the page on how to check translations.

If you want to reply to this message, please do so on my talk page. Thanks for your help you can provide.

You'll find the entry under go whole hog. I don't recall the definite article in that expression. If it's attested, it should probably just be a redirect. --Dvortygirl 06:46, 30 March 2006 (UTC)

CheckUser nominations
As of 31 August, 2006 the CheckUser status vote is beginning, you have been nominated and if you are so inclined please accept your nomination on the CheckUser page. Please also read the Meta Check User policy to be sure that the responsibilities are ones you would be interested in and willing to fulfill. Tentatively the end of the election will be one month from the beginning, but that is subject to change at any time, seeing as I just made that length up and a community consensus on duration will have to be established. Thank you and good luck! - TheDaveRoss 16:54, 31 August 2006 (UTC)

French for nemorous
I think there is a French word némoral (or there is according to the nemoral etymology) – but I don't have a French dictionary big enough to check it! This might be nearer the English than boisé though, which isn't as poetic – I would translate boisé as ‘wooded’ or something like that. Widsith 14:34, 5 September 2006 (UTC)

 * Well you could conceivably use it that way in English, but I don't think anyone ever has. There aren't really enough citations to make definite statements on it...but it's interesting that it's used that way in French.  Maybe boisé is the closest match after all.  Thanks!  Widsith 14:52, 5 September 2006 (UTC)

nemorous
Could you double-check the French translation of nemorous? You added the translation while the definition of the word was incorrect, so I wanted to be sure the French translation was verified with the correct definition. --EncycloPetey 17:32, 5 September 2006 (UTC)
 * checked. Kipmaster 10:43, 16 September 2006 (UTC)

English index
Hello,

I did this as a draft: User:Kipmaster/english-index. It's only the first 2000 words out of 85644. How do you think it should look like? Should I keep only single and hyphenated words as you suggested on the BP? Should I try to remove plurals? Is it useful? Any comment is welcome :-) Kipmaster 11:05, 2 September 2006 (UTC)

 * Excellent work. It would, of course, need splitting into sections, and subsections by first two letters (for non numeric entries). It's good that you have kept Capitalized and uncapitalized forms in synch (would you include both where there are separate articles? (rather than a redirect)). I would be inclined to include hyphenated words, and maybe even two separate words - but that is a judgement call (if you include electron microscope then why not scanning electron microscope?) But that decision can always be changed when it is periodically rebuilt. (Ditto the inclusion of plurals) I would say "go fot it" - noone will mourn the passing of the current index. SemperBlotto 11:15, 2 September 2006 (UTC)

Hi there! Have you had a chance to work on this yet? The first part looked good. SemperBlotto 16:34, 14 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Uh no, running out of time. I'll try to have a go this week-end. Kipmaster 10:42, 16 September 2006 (UTC)

Excellent work. I wonder if those strange ones at the end of Z are really English. For instance, the Oxford English Dictionary lists øre as ore. Cheers. SemperBlotto 16:36, 17 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Thanks! I had problems with the standard sorting order (that never works as you want), so I had to define it myself, and forgot some characters. Please post anything that's going wrong to Index_talk:English, or here. I'll try to do better next time ;-) Kipmaster 16:51, 17 September 2006 (UTC)

 * Hiya. Do you want me to run my four-columnizer offline tool (like I used for the various "Names" pages) on your index pages?  --Connel MacKenzie 17:01, 17 September 2006 (UTC)
 * yes, good idea! Kipmaster 09:41, 18 September 2006 (UTC)

Thank you
Dear Kipcool,

Thank you for signaling your confidence in my ability to act as a CheckUser for the English Wiktionary. Your vote means a lot to me. I deeply appreciate it.

You may not be aware, but the Meta: policy dictates that there must be multiple CheckUsers on any given project, or else none will be granted. Each must get 25 votes on their local wiki, as per Meta: policy, to be granted the CheckUser privilege.

I'd like to take a moment to endorse my friends and co-runners. Each of them offers different skills that, as a whole, complement the needs of the English Wiktionary.

 * 1) User:Uncle G has been an English Wikipedia sysop longer than he's been an English Wiktionary sysop.  This year (2006) he has refocused his efforts outside of Wiktionary.  He was dragged away from Wiktionary while cleaning up the tens of thousands of entries on Wikipedia that linked incorrectly to Wiktionary after the case-sensitivity change in June 2005.  He knows Wiktionary very well.  And he is very competent at focusing his efforts wherever they are most needed.  He operated the original Transwiki: bot, before we had the Special:Import feature we have now.
 * 2) User:Kipmaster is a French Wiktionnaire sysop and bot operator who is very technically capable.  He also is in Europe, making his hours of availability complementary to his American counterparts.  He is active in WiktionaryZ imports and understands very well which data can be imported here, from there.  He normally acts as our primary liaison to fr.wiktionary, whenever compatibility issues arise.
 * 3) User:Jon Harald Søby is a steward.  As a meta: steward, he is the primary person we call on to perform CheckUser checks now.  His availability is often limited, but his Central European timezone proves to be very, very useful on occasion.  He has contributed extensively to Wiktionary over the years.
 * 4) User:Kelly Martin was recently called in to help perform CheckUser checks on the English Wiktionary.  She is currently up for election also for the Board of Trustees of Wikimedia Foundation.  (In the unlikely event she wins that election, she will no longer be available to pursue her CheckUser nomination here.)  Since she also has CheckUser privilege on other sister projects, she is accustomed to the 'can's and 'cannot's of CheckUser procedures, in detail.

I hope you can take a moment to consider these fine candidates again. Your support means a great deal to them, as well as to Wiktionary's ability to perform its own CheckUser checks in a timely manner.

Thank you again, for your support. --Connel MacKenzie 06:17, 15 September 2006 (UTC)

Check User
Hello Kipmaster, your Check User flag is now active. Please subscribe to checkuser-l and email checkuser-l-owner@wikipedia.org so that the listadmins know that you are allowed on the mailing list. (The list may contain confidential information). Thank you. --12.3.196.1 06:26, 3 October 2006 (UTC) m:User:Paginazero not logged

CheckUser
Would you like to try out your new skills on the users "Hopscotch" and "Merope" - both are Wonderfool. I have already blocked Hopscotch (WF's editing behaviour is easy to spot). SemperBlotto 11:21, 3 October 2006 (UTC)
 * No need to waste time on either. WF is trying to change his editting behaviour. --Merope 12:34, 3 October 2006 (UTC)

Lemmata of Classical verbs
I've initiated at discussion at WT:AL about the lemma for Latin (and Greek) verbs on Wiktionary. I'd appreciate any thoughts you have, as one of the more experienced people here in both languages and editing issues. --EncycloPetey 01:58, 10 November 2006 (UTC)
 * thanks for brining this page to my attention. Kipmaster 13:54, 10 November 2006 (UTC)

chiaroscuro
Hello --

I'm a bit new here so please excuse my ignorance. But can you explain to me why you deleted the links to the spanish and french wiki pages on chiaroscuro and added (red) wiki links to the translations for said languages? And why for certain languages (or certain words) and not others? I've been using you as my guide, as it seems very complete -- and it has links to the french and spanish pages. Thanks -- Hibou 20:25, 25 November 2006 (UTC)

Happy Spread-the-funny and-slighty-random-love day!

Remove checkuser status
I request that my checkuser status be removed, since I don't use it anyway, and there is now more than 2 checkusers. Kipmaster 12:14, 31 May 2007 (UTC)

French
Hi. There has never been a clear consensus over which IPA symbol to use here to represent the French . Please consider adding your thoughts to the discussion at Wiktionary talk:About French so that we can come up with a definite policy on the matter. Cheers, Widsith 08:46, 15 July 2007 (UTC)

help needed for announcement to various wikts (including fr)
Since I don't see you on irc at the moment, I'll leave a note here. We are trying to get the word out to the various wiktionaries about a discussion jsut starting on Meta about the workings of the interwiki bot (specifically, what it souhld do, and how we colelctively can make that happen). See Interwiki.py/Wiktionary_functionality_discussion for all the details. Would you be willing to put up a short post, if you are an editor there, on fr wikt in their public discussion area, announcing the dicussion and asking for help translating as needed? Also, of course, if you or folks you know have opinions about the way interwiki links ought to work, please weigh in. Thanks, ArielGlenn 01:40, 30 July 2007 (UTC)

English index (update)
Hi there. I believe that you generated the current English index about a year ago. Would you consider rebuilding it sometime? A lot has been added in a year. Cheers. SemperBlotto 13:46, 5 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Hi, I have unfortunately very few time at the moment to contribute (finishing a PhD, and moving to another country). Maybe the best is that someone else updates it. Kipmaster 11:14, 22 September 2007 (UTC)

Redirects from article to category
Welcome Lucidish. I reverted your redirects from articles to categories (physics and semantics). Unless I am mistaken it is not good practice. Your other contributions (as far as I have seen) are much appreciated. HenkvD 14:47, 19 August 2005 (UTC)

 * I am not sure either about the policies on categories, but combining articles (words) and categories does not seem a good idea to me. I just added a lot of links in category headers to the article/word. I hope this will help. HenkvD 10:13, 20 August 2005 (UTC)

Your account will be renamed
Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Lucidish. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Lucidish~enwiktionary that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours, Keegan Peterzell Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation 23:58, 17 March 2015 (UTC)

Welcome!

Hello, and welcome to Wiktionary. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are a few good links for newcomers:
 * Wiktionary Tutorial
 * Community Portal
 * Entry layout explained
 * Criteria for inclusion
 * FAQ
 * How to edit a page
 * How to start a page
 * Wiktionary Sandbox (a safe place for testing syntax)

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wiktionarian! By the way, you can sign your name on Talk (discussion) and vote pages using four tildes, like this: ~~~~, which automatically produces your name and the current date. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the beer parlour or ask me on my Talk page. Again, welcome!

By the way - try not to copy definitions word-for-word from online or paper dictionaries. People will think it is a copyright violation. SemperBlotto 07:27, 15 August 2005 (UTC)

Hi Speed n up,

Please don't add literal translations of English idioms. It's not helpful at all. Once translated most of these idioms don't make any sense anymore. If you can think of a translation that renders the meaning of the idiom in another language, you're welcome to add it. In that case, one could - as an illustration - also add a literal translation. Also, German nouns are always capitalized. I reverted your change of clone for that reason.

Polyglot 09:24, 16 August 2005 (UTC)

Hi Speed n up,

You have added some more literal translations, among others to absolute zero. In French adjectives come after the noun, so that translation certainly can't be right. Please don't add information that is blatantly wrong to our project. For the moment I'm going to leave things as they are. You can clean up your act if you want and I would be glad if you did. At one point in time I or somebody else will scrutinize all your edits though and throw away what looks even moderately suspicious. You seem to know quite a few languages or at least you seem to have quite a few dictionaries to look things up, but translating literally often gives erroneous results. I think you mean well, it simply seems you are a bit inexperienced. Cooperating on the Wiktionary project will be a great way to become more experienced, but please don't lower the quality of the work we're doing here. That's not acceptable. I would suggest you only add content if you are absolutely certain that what you add is correct. Look it up, use Google, concentrate on things that are easy to translate like names of animals. I often type the scientific name of a species into Google along with a translation that is known to be good. This produces a lot of good translations for that exact species.

Polyglot 08:20, 19 August 2005 (UTC)

extortion looks good. I double checked the German translation and it is correct. I would only like to ask you to use a level four heading for translations. Otherwise somebody will have to go after you to fix them all. If you look at the table of contents of the entry, you will see why this is important. It neatly keeps the translations together with the part of speech they are under. Polyglot 08:31, 19 August 2005 (UTC)

Hi Speed n up,

Could you have a look to what I did to offensive? You added a translation section, but there are 4 definitions and it wasn't clear to which the translations apply. So I created tables where each definition can be translated separately. I hope I sorted the Spanish and Italian ones correctly. I don't know where the Japanese one should go, so I added it to a Translations to be checked section. It's more work this way and it takes more research to get it right, but it's certainly worth it, since it tremendously improves the accuracy. Polyglot 08:12, 24 August 2005 (UTC)

I have another remark. The translations at dynamic memory can't be correct. Roman/Latin languages always put the noun first, then the adjective. Please don't add translations for which you aren't absolutely sure they are correct. Polyglot 09:17, 24 August 2005 (UTC)

Sharpness
Um, should your translations go on the sharpness page? I find it unlikely that the German and Spanish language would have words for a small English port. SemperBlotto 07:17, 2 September 2005 (UTC)

discourage
There I am again. I only come by to your talk page to complain about the gross problems anymore. In the entry for discourage an infinitive is defined. However you translate to French with an ending in -ez. That's a conjugated verb second person plural. The Spanish translation you added ends in -te, Spanish infinitives tend to end in -ar, -er and -ir. Could you please review and correct all that you have added? There is a link to my contributions on the top right of each Wiktionary page. If I have to do it, I will probably remove everything you contributed that looks even moderately fishy. And I'm afraid that one day in the nearby future I will do exactly that. Wrong information is worse than no information at all. Everything you add here will stay around for several months and sometimes years before somebody will come around and check it. If the information is wrong, then maybe the person viewing it will realize that and fix it. But what if he/she doesn't realize, uses the information and gets fired (or something else nasty happens)? This project has become a lot more complicated than it was in the beginning and the standards have gone up as well. It's not possible to let information linger around that I'm reasonably sure isn't correct. Cleaning up like that after you, is no fun though. So please only contribute information that you know to be 100% correct. Polyglot 14:26, 5 September 2005 (UTC)

sanatorium
I listed the definition as "a mental hospital" and I notice you added "that treats chronic diseases". I'll be the first to admit that I'm not the best definition maker on the planet, but it seems to me that "chronic diseases" doesn't really apply either. I mean, congestive heart failure is a chronic disease yet mental hospitals don't treat hardening of the arteries. Can you give this another try? Cheers --Stranger 15:59, 6 September 2005 (UTC)

pantechnicon

Etymology
From, a 19th-century firm which owned a building with a Greek-style facade of Doric columns in Motcomb Street, Belgrave Square, London, UK, with a picture gallery, a furniture shop, a shop selling carriages, and a warehouse for storing customers’ furniture and other items. The firm used large horse-drawn vans to collect and deliver their customers' property, which came to be known as Pantechnicon vans.

The word was coined by the firm from (from, neuter form of ) + , neuter singular of.

Noun

 * 1)  A building or place housing shops or stalls where all sorts of (especially exotic) manufactured articles are collected for sale.
 * 2)  Originally pantechnicon van: a van, especially a large moving or removal van.

 * The pantechnicon was running away. It had perceived the wrath to come and was fleeing. Its guardians had evidently left it imperfectly scotched or braked, and it had got loose. [T]he onrush of the pantechnicon constituted a clear crisis. Lower down the gradient of Brougham Street was more dangerous, and it was within the possibilities that people inhabiting the depths of the street might find themselves pitched out of bed by the sharp corner of a pantechnicon that was determined to be a pantechnicon.
