Why I care about the Wiktionary project
Words are the most frequently used means for us human beings to communicate. A common, shared understanding of what the words mean is necessary for communication to succeed. In my experience, misunderstanding and miscommunication are all to often caused when different people interpret words differently from each other. Such misunderstandings can lead to my making a mistake, to your getting into a quite unnecessary quarrel with your nearest and dearest and to other preventable accidents. When we are really unlucky, misunderstandings and miscommunications can even cause a crisis, which may escalate into a full-blown disaster. Contrastingly, when we are lucky (or proficient, or both), we create friendship, cooperation, goodwill, knowledge and prosperous communities through our successful use of words. For these reasons I want to do my small part in making it easier for us all to communicate in one of the most complex and complicated of languages: English. If you are interested in why English is so convoluted, keep on reading.

Why English is so convoluted
The English language is a concoction brewed from at least five "ingredient" languages: Insular Celtic (the Goidelic and Brythonic language families), Latin, Anglo-Saxon, old Norse, and Norman French. These five had first been simmering together on the British Isles for several hundreds of years, creating a very rich vocabulary and a grammar with more exceptions than rules. Then English expanded West, and adopted a number of words and expressions from different Native American languages and other languages, such as Spanish, Dutch, French (again), Italian, and a number of languages spoken by the slaves from Africa.

If you grow curious about the history of the English language, I recommend Wikijunior Languages/English offered on Wikibooks for a quick starter, and after that, if you have apetite for more, the articles History of the English language and Old English language offered on Wikipedia. If you want to read a book that resembles a good novel, yet informs better than many textbooks, check out The Adventure of English : The Biography of a Language by Melvyn Bragg.

'The following information is very much alike what I have on my Wikipedia user page, too. You may have seen most of it already.'

Rather informal Curriculum Vitae
I am currently a free academic radical. This means, among other things, that I am a university student and that I teach and do research, too, but I do not hold a permanent faculty position. I like reading, writing, thinking, learning, and teaching, all preferably together with others. When practiced in combination, these activities often tend to lead to research, which has sometimes even been publishable. My main research interest is multi-channel early warning (MCEW) - this is called "emergency population warning" "public warning", "citizens warning" or "emergency alert", too. Both alone and together with fellow students and faculty, I have thus far (July 2007) published one magazine article, five conference papers and one workshop position paper, which focus mainly on the security and usability of MCEWs received through mobile devices (mobile early warning, MEW). Granted, MCEWs or MEWs are not a very widely-adopted reality yet, but studying the concepts and theory is interesting and motivating: maybe one day our work will help save lives. I have also helped a little in research on how to thwart unsolicited bulk e-mail (UBE) - also called spam, junk e-mail or unsolicited commercial e-mail (UCE). I have taught the fundamentals of scientific research and writing both in English and in Finnish since 2002, and continue to do so, whenever I get a change.

Limited rant on how to teach research
From the teaching experiences mentioned above grows my motto: "It takes a research community to train a researcher". I see myself less and less as a teacher (a giver of information to those who know less) and increasingly as a facilitator and a coach (an intellectual "ball plank" for those who certainly know more than I do about their own research topics, and about many other things, too). In my honest opinion, the best learning for fledgling researchers - whether they are high school or doctoral students - comes from Socratic group discussions with and personal tutoring by older and more experienced researchers. I predict that the university, faculty or laboratory that has or can develop traditions that build and maintain such interdependent, inter-generation research communities is among the ones to produce the most innovative (partial) solutions to many of humankind's most pressing problems. In blunter words: Teachers don't necessarily need to leave 'em kids alone - but we do need to learn to speak less and listen more in class, to loosen the total control that we have when we lecture. Especially when dealing with people who need to learn how to do research at least moderately independently, the designated "teacher" should preferably round up sufficiently many older researchers of the same general research area, with varying length and focus of experience, lure them in the same room with the beginners, bolt the door, pour the coffee/tea/goatmilk/whatever, get the discussion going and then SHUT UP her- or himself. People who are smart enough to be drawn to research are, indeed, capable of posing intelligent and relevant questions to their senior colleagues, and they, in turn, are capable of answering the questions full well, without any unnecessary meddling from the teacher. Oh, and while I am at it: those who wish to study at college or university level should first be able to show that they can read, write and think, not just repeat memorized facts or take standardized tests. Furthermore, those who wish to teach at college or university level should first be able to prove that they can, in addition to the three skills above, also teach. rant over

Trivia
I was born in May 1964 in Helsinki (Finland, EU) as the eldest of three sisters, and originally named Päivi Hyvärinen. I lived from October 1967 to December 1969 in Baltimore, (Maryland, USA), where both my parents did postdoctoral research at the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine. During our time in Baltimore I forgot everything about Finland except the language and came to view myself as an American. Not surprisingly, returning "home" was not easy. Today I have a Western - mainly cross-Atlantic - identity, with some roots here, some there, and most of my strongest roots in the international scientific-scholarly community.

In Baltimore I attended Cedarcroft Kindergarten (Montessori method), the best school I have ever had the honor to study at - though Helsingfors svenska sjukvårdsinstitut in 1983-1988 came close.

I changed my name in 1993 to Ronja Addams. This name comes firstly from the protagonist of Astrid Lindgren's book Ronja Rövardotter (translated into English as Ronia the Robber's Daughter), and secondly from the Addams Family cartoons and films (I love them, especially the 1991 movie). In 1997, when we married, I took also my husband's family name in use.

I am a Bright, and so is my husband. We have brought our children up in the spirit of intellectual and emotional honesty, creative curiosity, constructive argumentation, and religious tolerance, which they are now testing to the hilt by both proclaiming that they believe in God and angels. I find the irony of it delicious.

We currently live in Helsinki (Finland, EU). The time zone of Helsinki East-European Time (EET), the same as for Tallin, Cairo and Cape Town (UTC + 2 hours).

Appendix:Russian nouns

Russian noun declension
Conventionally, Russian nouns have six cases: nominative case, genitive case, dative case, accusative case, instrumental case, and prepositional case. However, some nouns retain vestiges of Old Russian vocative case, and some have acquired a partitive-genitive case separate from the genitive and/or a locative case separate from the prepositional.

Nominative case
The nominative case is the subject case, and this is considered the basic form of a word:

Genitive case
The genitive case is similar to the English possessive case, and it often corresponds to English of or the possessive ending ’s:

Dative case
The dative case is similar to the English indirect object, and it often corresponds to the words to or towards:

Accusative case
The accusative case is like the English direct object, although in some cases describes motion:

Instrumental case
The instrumental case indicates the agent or the instrument of an action, and it often corresponds to English with or by:

Prepositional case
The prepositional case always takes a preposition, and it often indicates location:

Partitive-genitive case
The partitive-genitive case, when different from the genitive, means part of something, some of something:

Locative case
The locative case, when it differs from the prepositional case, indicates location:

Vocative case
The vocative case survives in only a few words of a religious nature, and this case marks the person being addressed. In some old writing and in some poetry, this is sometimes indicated with the word "O" or "Oh" in English:

In addition, there is a new colloquial vocative case used with some names or family members ending in -а or -я, a so-called "new vocative". It's formed by dropping the final -а or -я, -я is changed to -ь, for example:

This is not considered very standard. These forms are normally not included in dictionaries and formally the nominative case is used for this purpose.

Declension paradigms
Russian nouns are frequently irregular in declension, and specific declensions may be found in most articles. Listed here are what we consider to be standard regular declensions:

First declension
Nouns that end in a hard consonant or the vowels -а or -о are hard and follow these hard patterns:

1. Hard feminine case endings:

 * Examples:

N.B.—Nouns that end (after dropping the final vowel in the case of feminines or neuters) in the consonants -г, -к, -х, -ж, -ч, -ш, or -щ are also hard, but they take soft -и instead of -ы in the applicable cases:

2. Hard feminine case endings with -и:

 * Examples:

Feminine nouns in -я follow these soft patterns:

3. Soft feminine case endings:

 * Examples:

Second declension
1. Hard masculine case endings:

 * Examples:

2. Hard neuter case endings:

 * Examples:

N.B.—Nouns that end (after dropping the final vowel in the case of feminines or neuters) in the consonants -г, -к, -х, -ж, -ч, -ш, or -щ are also hard, but they take soft -и instead of -ы in the applicable cases:

3. Hard masculine case endings with -и:

 * Examples:

Masculine nouns that end in -й or -ь, neuter nouns in -е follow these soft patterns.

4. Soft masculine case endings:

 * Examples:

5. Soft neuter case endings:

 * Examples:

Third declension
Feminine nouns in -ь belong to the third declension:

 * Examples:

Declension tables
The following codes are used in declension tables, in the following order:

 * 1) animacy: anim = animate, inan = inanimate, bian = bianimate (can be both animate and inanimate)
 * this affects the accusative plural and masculine accusative singular, which are the same as the nominative in inanimates and the genitive in animates
 * 1) number restriction: pl-only = plural only (plurale tantum), sg-only = singular only (singulare tantum)
 * 2) typical gender: masc-type = typically masculine, fem-type = typically feminine, neut-type = typically neuter
 * this refers to the form of the noun, not the actual gender, which in some cases is different
 * 1) stem class or declension:
 * 2) stem values: hard-stem = ends in a paired hard consonant, soft-stem = ends in a paired soft consonant, velar-stem = ends in к/г/х, sibilant-stem = ends in ш/щ/ч/ж, ц-stem = ends in ц, vowel-stem = ends in a vowel other than и or ends in a palatal (й or ь + vowel), i-stem = ends in и
 * this affects the form that various endings take
 * 1) other values: 3rd-decl = 3rd-declension noun (feminine in -ь or neuter in -мя), invar = invariable, short poss = short possessive adjectival, mixed poss = mixed possessive adjectival, proper poss = proper-noun possessive adjectival
 * all the adjectival variants here have short (noun-like) endings in some of their cases, and the stem generally ends in -ов/ев/ёв or -ин
 * 1) accent specifies the stress pattern: a, b, b', c, d, d', e, f, f', f''
 * see Appendix: Russian stress patterns
 * more than one is possible
 * 1) adj = adjectival (has the endings of an adjective rather than a typical noun)
 * 2) reduc = reducible, [reduc] = optionally reducible
 * this means that an extra vowel appears before the final stem consonant in the nominative singular and/or genitive plural (specifically, in all endings lacking a vowel)
 * 1) irreg = irregular
 * most commonly, this refers to an unexpected nominative plural or genitive plural ending, or a special plural stem

Talk:post scriptum

post scriptum
Shouldn't this be postscriptum?
 * Not sure. The OED citations that I've found suggest that it should, but Smith's translation of Freund inserts a hyphen, which is weird. --EncycloPetey 09:36, 2 May 2006 (UTC)

 * I was always taught it was one word too. Widsith 09:41, 2 May 2006 (UTC)

 * The verb postscribo, postscribere, is one word. According to Random House, postscriptum is as well. Now checking my Latin dictionary, it says postscriptum is one word. —Stephen 21:22, 2 May 2006 (UTC)

 * The situation is actually more complex: Latin post (adverb [and preposition] = after, afterwards, behind) and scrībere (verb = to write with past participle scriptus) were very common Latin words. Like many Latin PPs, the neuter came into common use as a noun, meaning writings or scripts.  Also, as with many Latin verbs, composite forms including prefices sprang up with the same meaning as the adverb-verb phrase.  So to append [something] to the end of a document, originally described only as post scrībere, could also be described as postscrībere.

 * From this, a note after the main part of a document became a postscriptum, from which comes English postscriptum.
 * However, it is also valid for other languages to borrow the individual words post and scriptus to describe writings added to the bottom of a sheet (or later in time), even if Latin itself used a different formulation. My Latin is certainly not good enough to say whether there was a slight difference in meaning between the two constructions, but they are both valid.

 * books.google has many cites for both forms from the early 18th cent, with the earliest postscriptum being published in 1827, purporting to come from James VI of Scotland in the late 16th century, and the earliest post scriptum being in the collected works of Lord Byron, published in 1839. (Based on books.google, in the 19th century, post-scriptum was also common in French writing, but rather less in English.)

 * So, for post scriptum I have changed Latin to English since it was naturalised even before 1839 and I think Latin would probably have used postscriptum only. I added 3 quotes, changed the etymology, etc. I have also added the English sense of postscriptum (+ 3 quotes, etc) and amended the Latin entry to suit. I have not bothered with post-scriptum, which was relatively rare in English, and now appears obsolete. --Enginear 03:51, 4 June 2006 (UTC)

User talk:Mak Thorpe~enwiktionary

Hello, I've rolled back your change to seaplane as that is not how we do it here.

Translation entries are to be explained in English (therefore here, on the English Wiktionary) rather than in their own language. The translation entry will have an interwiki link to the other language, if (and only if) the spelling matches exactly.

Here is the welcome template. I hope you enjoy finding your way around here...

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! --Connel MacKenzie T C 23:55, 15 June 2006 (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 Mak Thorpe. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Mak Thorpe~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 23:56, 17 March 2015 (UTC)

Talk:soft drink

Soft Drinks - Etymology

Perhaps I am using the wrong term when I say "etymology," but I was asked by a friend recently what the origin of the term "soft drink" is.

My Hypothesis: the term "soft drink" probably originated during prohibition, when a "hard drink" would be any drink that contained alcohol. Many so-called "soda fountains" also had a back room where hard drinks could be had. To differentiate between a non-alcoholic drink and and alcoholic drink, the term "soft drink," meaning a drink that does not contain alcohol, was coined.

"softdrink"
Hey, I was checking my newspeak manual recently and I saw that some people spell this as 'softdrink' (no space needed) --Geographyinitiative (talk) 01:41, 10 January 2019 (UTC)

Wiktionary talk:Abuse reports

 * Originally at Wiktionary talk:Blocking policy

re: CSU/Primetime block letter
Personally I don't agree with the line "We simply cannot allow an institution that encourages massive plagiarism to contribute to our efforts at this time." Actually, I do agree with that line, I don't agree with the characterization that CSU euncourages plagarism, and I think that this is needlessly inflamatory. Our goal with this and these types of notices should be informative, they should be invitations to cooperate rather than reprimands. I would chose something more alont the lines of "We would appreciate your assistance in curtailing this particular person's activities, we would like to resolve this situation as soon as possible so normal usage can resume for the rest of your clients currently inconvenienced by the block." (Okay, the writing sucks, but that is  closer to what I think we should be saying). - TheDaveRoss 20:56, 8 June 2006 (UTC)

 * Ouch. I wish you have made this comment before it was sent.  I took the same template from last time, but must've been in a bad mood or something (due to Primetime perhaps?) when I added that last blurb.
 * It would still be nice to have proper boilerplate letters for these. Getting bits and pieces from the Wikipedia letters isn't quite adequate, apparently.

 * I was told the abuse letters have to say certain things: Who did the abuse, links to those abuses (as much as possible), What Wiktionary (sysops) did in response, and how long those actions will remain in place if no corrective action is taken (by that network.)

 * Any prose you all would care to generate, I'd appreciate. I'd also appreciate others sending the occasional abuse report, for smaller offenders, too.  --Connel MacKenzie T C 04:43, 16 June 2006 (UTC)

Boilerplate Mailing
I will start a boilerplate mailing so that future mailings of this sort have some basis to work on, please ammend and comment as you see fit. - TheDaveRoss 05:04, 16 June 2006 (UTC)

To:  abuse@ISP Subj: IP Abuse report: IP Addresses in question; date or dates of abuse.

To the relevant personal of ISP;

We at the *English Wiktionary*, a subsidiary project of the *Wikimedia foundation* are writing to inform you of certain specific activities perpetrated by one or more of your clients or other persons accessing Wiktionary through IP adresses registered to ISP (as listed below). We have taken such action as we have deemed necessary to stem the immediate activities (as described below), and would appreciate your assistance in preventing future occurances of such actions, which result in inevitable inconveniences for both the Wiktionary community and the remainder of your clients.

Please feel free to reply to me at this email address (which can be confirmed on my option will allow for communication to the community at large).
 * userpage at Wiktionary* [via the email user button]), or at my *user talk page* (this

We thank you in advance for your cooperation and assistance in this matter, and hope we can resolve this quickly and to the satisfaction of all involved parties.

Sending Sysop http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/User:Sending_Sysop

IP Abuse report: The following IPs under your responsibility engaged in vandalism to http://en.wiktionary.org on DATE and TIME:

 * IPS

Their activities took place on these pages...

The links below are to some of the edit history on the site, showing the exact times of the vandalism and diffs of the vandalism committed. History is not displayed for entries that have simply been deleted.

PAGES...

Action taken: The immediate action was to block the specific IP addresses, but due to persistant activities on the part of the vandals we blocked IP RANGE.

Block Letters for Users to Use
It's neato we have time to send block letters to admins. However, I think we should also draft a block letter that pissed off blocked users can send to their admins. I can't imagine too many IP admins giving a hoot what some website operator (and that's all we are) has to say about what their users do on our website. They're too busy with software updates, hackers, spam, spyware, etc. On the other hand, if an IP admin's own users start flooding him/her with well worded e-mails about being denied full access due to misbehavior originating from an IP under their control, then they might do something about it. In order to mobilize these users, we need to 1) define a block, 2) explain the reason for the block, 3) encourage blocked users to take action, 4) provide a template for them to use, and 5) give them the necessary contact information. Such a template might look something like this:

 * Dear user of shared IP address 999.999.999.999,

 * The administrators regret that the vandalism of one of the users of your IP address has caused the need for us to block editing access to our website. We do this to protect the integrity of our global project.  We greatly appreciate the constructive contributions made by our users.  However, one (or more) of the users of this IP address has caused us so many problems on so many occasions that our only option remaining is to block all edits from your shared IP address.  We have attempted to contact your system's administrators to help resolve these problems.  However you can help, too.  Please consider sending the following e-mail to:  admin@yourIP.

 * To:	IP Admin

 * Dear Sir/Madam,

 * I am a user of IP address 999.999.999.999, an address under your control. I am also a contributor to Wictionary.org, an online, global dictionary and collaborative project.  Due to the inappropriate actions of other users of this shared IP address, I have been barred from contributing to this project.  This access is important to me, and I must insist that you take all action necessary to cooperate with the administrators at Wictionary to prevent abuse originating from our IP address.  Such abuse disrupts the valuable work underway at the Wictionary.org website, my work, and makes our organization look bad in the public eye.  IP addresses are not anonymous, and the disruptive actions of even one of your users reflect badly on our organization.  Similar abuse originating from other organizations has made national news in the past, and that is one more problem I am sure you do not need.  More importantly to me, I need my access restored.  Please contact admin@wictionary.org for more information about abuse originating from our IP and what you can do about it.

This information should go on the talk page for any IP address with a block longer than one day. We already know the power of our volunteers to create a world-class, shared resource. Let's harness this same power to help solve the vandalism problem. Rklawton 12:29, 16 June 2006 (UTC)

 * WiKtionary. :-) — Vildricianus 12:40, 16 June 2006 (UTC)
 * You'd think I might notice that right there on my screen - or at least look it up in my diktionary. Rklawton 17:45, 16 June 2006 (UTC)

Inline logs
Shouldn't the boiler template contain a place for an inline log of the vandalism (a contribution log containing the exact time with appropriate timestamp) considering that many ISPs will discard abuse reports that don't contain a log INLINE (example: Road Runner)? 67.233.7.159 22:29, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

Please block, 28 December 2008
Please block User:Lig Is True 3. 71.66.97.228 03:15, 29 December 2010 (UTC)

Thank you for blocking. 71.66.97.228 05:21, 29 December 2010 (UTC)

Wiktionary:Abuse reports
Not a useful page; only history was starting the page, a report of an abusive sock that migrated from Wikipedia, and  attempting to revamp it. Most of these requests should be deferred to the duplicate page at Wikipedia, since those are the only ones that do any actual damage, crosswiki or otherwise. TeleComNasSprVen 06:57, 26 November 2010 (UTC)
 * I don't really know what it is. The page intro, which is supposed to explain that, basically says "Integration with Wikipedia project". Delete or find a use for it. Mglovesfun (talk) 11:26, 26 November 2010 (UTC)
