Feel free to add whatever you think best to entrap or elsewhere. If anyone objects they will just change it. Cheers.

Wiktionary talk:What Wiktionary is not

I landed here from "Wiktionary:Most common wiktionary faux pas." The material here makes little sense in that context. I seldom see people doing many of the things alluded to here. I would cite RFD as a fertile source of faux pas, but I ought not go further.

Add section about the prescriptive vs. descriptive debate?
Though most people around here think of this as a descriptive dictionary (rather than prescriptive or normative), I haven't been able to find this written down anywhere. Would this be a good place to at least talk about prescription and description in dictionaries? Or maybe on Help:FAQ? --Bequw → ¢ • τ 18:45, 13 March 2008 (UTC)
 * I've been thinking of writing Descriptivism, but haven't got round to it yet. Feel free to pre-empt me, either here there or at a better title. Conrad.Irwin 01:14, 16 May 2008 (UTC)
 * No thanks, we've got plenty to do already! ;) I'm looking forward to seeing the page. --EncycloPetey 01:38, 16 May 2008 (UTC)

Wiktionary is not an encyclopedia
There is quite a debate over at wikipedia over what information goes in wiktionary and what goes in wikipedia. Some input from wiktionary people would probably be very helpful at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:Wikipedia_is_not_a_dictionary.

 * Reading that, do we have any home for information like Fallacies of definition?--Bequw → ¢ • τ 08:16, 4 April 2009 (UTC)

Warnings for edits of good faith?
"administrators don't usually issue warnings unless edits are clearly made in good faith." --anon

 * I just came across this now (admittedly quite a long time later), and it tripped me up too. Maybe "don't usually issue warnings (preferring to take more direct actions) unless edits are clearly made in good faith", or something? Throne3d (talk) 15:21, 10 June 2019 (UTC)

Regarding this sentence...
Read a sentence in #10 (the last part) of the main list of what Wiktionary is not. It says:

''Although one could look up être at fr.wiktionary (fr:être), its definition will be in French. So if that person doesn’t speak any French, they still wouldn’t know what être meant, and it wouldn’t be of any help to them.''

However, don't you know that you can translate a page?? Go to (any entry on) the French Wiktionary and click on the Translate button of the "Translate this page" dialog box. Did whoever write this sentence think of this comment?? Georgia guy (talk) 22:39, 31 December 2018 (UTC)
 * Automatic translation in browsers became widespread only after that was written, and besides to this day they are not very reliable, especially for shorter texts (such as what a dictionary tends to have). — surjection ⟨?⟩ 22:59, 31 December 2018 (UTC)
 * Can anyone alter this sentence to include information on using such a translator to the "Wiktionary is not just for English" message?? Georgia guy (talk) 23:07, 31 December 2018 (UTC)
 * It's not a good idea precisely because such translators are not reliable and likely will never be. — surjection ⟨?⟩ 23:21, 31 December 2018 (UTC)
 * So perhaps you could add Moreover, one could go to a page on the French Wiktionary and click on a "Translate" button from a dialog box, such an event might not translate it perfectly. or something like that. Georgia guy (talk) 23:30, 31 December 2018 (UTC)
 * That has nothing to do with the intent of the page. It's not going to happen. DTLHS (talk) 23:36, 31 December 2018 (UTC)

Add "Wiktionary is not a place to dump your conlang's lexicon" to list
Although Wiktionary is not just for English, that doesn't mean that your own personal non-notable constructed language gets to be included in Wiktionary. 173.230.18.196 17:20, 1 December 2019 (UTC)

Talk:felch

Discussion moved from deletion discussion
Only non-proper-name attestation for this term I found was urbandictionary. --Connel MacKenzie 28 June 2005 17:09 (UTC) I'm sorry, but the citation given above lead me to believe this is not a real word (nor practice) and that the term was made up after the superbowl commercial (mentioned above) appeared, in an attempt to discredit, slander or libel certain advertising companies and or their clients. I do not think Wiktionary should be party to that (probable) slander. Delete. --Connel MacKenzie 1 July 2005 23:26 (UTC)
 * felching is pretty much definitely a word, although there's marked disagreement as to its actual definition. Whether the stem form is a word with the given definition is an interesting question.  It may well be that felching the participle can be attested whilst felch as a verb cannot be.  Felch is, as you say, a noun.  It's a well-attested place name and family name.  Uncle G 28 June 2005 19:16 (UTC)
 * Try Googling "felching", and please refer to felching. I have attempted some cleanup, but can't really comment on the stem form. --Dvortygirl 28 June 2005 21:00 (UTC)
 * I heard somewhere that it also includes shoving animals up your rectum. I mean, seriously. --Expurgator t(c)
 * This is another that I would unhappily accept. Nevertheless, there appears to be some confusion about the part of speech.  It is currently called a verb, but the definition given is that of a noun.  Does anyone have an example where "felch" (rather than "felching") is used as a noun. Eclecticology June 28, 2005 23:48 (UTC)
 * Guessing here, a felch could mean "an act of felchin", e.g. "That hamster was a damn good felch". But then again, I'll stop talking about this subject now--Expurgator t(c) 28 June 2005 23:51 (UTC)
 * I haven't looked at the entry, but I would assert that "felch" is a verb, meaning to suck one's semen out of the rectum (or vagina, or either?) of one's sexual partner, and "felching" is the sexual practice of doing this. The "hamster up the back passage" sense is pretty much apocryphal, I believe.  I'm not an expert (nor even an amateur, I might add) in either, so I won't comment further.  I think we need some sound citations.  — Paul G June 29, 2005 09:38 (UTC)
 * What a distasteful subject! Still, I have heard it used in the "sucking" sense, never in the "hamster" sense. "To felch" is a verb and is the citation form, the dictionary form. "Felching" is the gerund made from the verb and used as a noun and as such should not carry the primary definition. As always, research and citations would help - but I don't know what material you would read to find such things I'm glad to say! — Hippietrail 29 June 2005 10:09 (UTC)
 * Aside from the facts that Wiktionary is not paper and we don't have "headwords" here, if felching can be attested (as it can be) and felch not, then we should have the former and not have the latter. We certainly shouldn't have a felch article, simply so that it can point to felching, if felch is not in fact attested as a word.  That would be endorsing a protologism (however natural and "obvious" the form would seem to native English speakers). Uncle G 30 June 2005 10:46 (UTC)
 * There's too much noise if you search for felch alone, but Google:felching+felches produces several clear results, e.g., etc. —Muke Tever July 3, 2005 00:35 (UTC)

Ordinary word, keep (but for heaven's sake, rewrite the def so that it is for the verb instead of 'felching'!). —Muke Tever July 3, 2005 00:32 (UTC)

Ordinary word, indeed. Keep Ncik 00:52, 04 Jul 2005

 * I've revised the definition to conform with the part of speech. A citation would still be a tongue forward. Eclecticology 18:36, July 11, 2005 (UTC)

seen it
Well, felching anyway, but in context that suggests this is a regular verb with all the normal forms. Felching, felch, felched, felcher, felches, will have been felching, had felched, felchable, etc.

Talk:downtown

Could someone provide attestation for the "lower part of town" sense? It's not familiar to me as a US speaker. My understanding was that the term originated in Manhattan, where downtown is at the south end of the island (thus lower on the map). -dmh June 28, 2005 17:13 (UTC)

Is the baseball example for the "Noun" section accurate? I would think this usage illustrates the "adverb" more than the "name", doesn't it? --Augustin, October 4, 2010 13:57 (UTC)
 * Basketball? Mglovesfun (talk) 14:00, 4 October 2010 (UTC)

Without any evidence, I have a hunch that the above commenter is correct that the origin is from New York's downtown being southward from the rest of it. The Online Etymology Dictionary states that the word originated in 1835, well after the founding of New York, but says that the word is derived from elevations typical of cities, which I personally find less satisfying. They have no citations for that entry. I guess as many cities might be set on a hill as in a valley, although any city that was founded adjacent to a body of water would tend to have a lower elevation in the oldest quarter.

Lower
I do not understand the use of the word "lower" in this context. Surely it's not topographical. Then how is it lower? It is not clear. 172.56.11.130 11:12, 3 October 2014 (UTC)

police station

The reading of this word and related words (including the preposition below) has recently been contested. Werning and others have suggested that the traditional reading of is wrong, with the New Kingdom reading more likely being, and the original reading conceivably either  or. However, other Egyptologists argue for the traditional reading, and indeed the bulk of the current evidence seems to point to the traditional value.
