Wiktionary talk:Project-Wanted Articles

Regarding the question: Should we be prioritizing common words before obscure ones? I personally vote "YES." I threw entries into this list from Special:Wantedpages starting from the end - the "most linked" undefined articles. The number of times a word is linked seems synonymous with it's priority, at least for this quick-list. I'm not at all sure how often Special:Wantedpages is updated - it looks like a weekly automatic run. That's why rush is still listed on it.

 * Absolutely. This list is specifically and only for terms linked many times within Wiktionary yet lacking definitions. — Hippietrail 01:01, 15 Jan 2005 (UTC)

Anyone like the idea of adding one or two foreign language words? Or even a whole mess of them, starting from #2000 linked 383 times? (What is that, Japanese for can?) --Connel MacKenzie 00:26, 15 Jan 2005 (UTC)

 * We already have a few such pages - they are largely neglected however. I don't think it's time to start pushing these in highly visible places like these templated lists until the English dictionary is considered well fleshed out. After that it will become a much higher priority to get more foreign words and translations in. — Hippietrail 01:01, 15 Jan 2005 (UTC)

 * OK. I just figured one Japanese, one Russian word being visible might encourage more foreign input.  C'est la vie!  --Connel MacKenzie 01:07, 15 Jan 2005 (UTC)

 * Thinking about it since my last reply, you might have a good point. Maybe if we give one line to words in various languages which are recognizable enough that passing strangers might be able to add them. But how to choose such words so that they won't just sit and gather dust...? — Hippietrail 02:01, 15 Jan 2005 (UTC)

 * I was thinking more of letting just one word work it's way onto the list. If it drifts all the way to the left and no one touches it, then it goes round-robbin to the end of the queue.  Then drop in one from a different language.  If a Japanese word gets defined in two seconds flat, then try and queue up a bunch.  If a Russian name slides by, then avoid Russian for a week or two.  My biggest problem is that I'm so American, I usually can't tell what language a given foriegn term is in.  Most of the time they appear as either "??", "???" or "????" on my browser.

 * Looks like Jun-Dai queued up oriental on this list...I can't think of anyone better qualified than he, to throw a definition at it. Since he took it from the list out of order...A-Ha!  It is a conspiracy to pour more racist fuel on the fire of the flame-war thread on anti-semitism!.  OK, maybe not, but the timing is rather odd.  Maybe he innocently wants to see how someone else would word it.  Or perhaps even not trusting himself to be NPOV?  I still think the timing is odd.  He is a very bright guy.  Hmmmm.  I think I'd better just ask him on his talk page.

 * Back on topic, I found the Wanted list to be really nice, as the words there are linked by lots of different things; I would characterise them as fairly common words. To select appropriate foriegn words, I'd just start from entry #2000 and work my way backwards as I did for English words.  Taking the time to research them individually, then deciding which ones are "easy" would be very time consuming.  --Connel MacKenzie 14:10, 16 Jan 2005 (UTC)

 *  As I mentioned to Connel, I didn't really put it "out of order" (except in the strictest sense), since the words that I put it before were ones that I had just added myself. I am curious to see what other people come up with, though mostly it's just a mechanism to ensure that I get around to thinking and possibly (likely) writing a definition of the word.  Since I have been caught red-handed, however, I think I will go ahead and write the damn thing.

 * Thank you.
 * Minor clarification: When I said out of order, I didn't mean you put it in this list in the wrong place in the queue, I meant it is listed as being linked only 15 times, while there are still a lot that are 16, 17, 18, 19 times linked that haven't made it onto the list at all yet. (A hundred or so?  200?)
 * The lesson *I* need to learn from this, is that I need to let wiki alone to do its magical thing. My suggestion was adapted onto the recent changes page - DUH - that means it is not *mine*.  (Not that it ever was, once it had been posted here on wiktionary.)  Whatever conventions evolve for populating this page are not under my control.  I like the idea of taking the next most-linked word from the tail end of the most-linked-undefined list, but that is only my suggestion.
 * --Connel MacKenzie 22:09, 16 Jan 2005 (UTC)

 *  Ah. I see.  Yeah, I felt like as long as it was on that end of the list (i.e., in the last--or first, depending on how you think about it--500) it was fair game.  Initially, however, I entered in a bunch of words with 8 or so links, since I didn't realize the list was, er, little-endian.

 * Right, the Wantedpages list goes to 2000. And when entries come from towards the end of that list, they get appended onto the end of this list.  Seems like a simple, yet fair, method to me.  --Connel MacKenzie 05:11, 20 Jan 2005 (UTC)

I've noticed that since this template has been worldly accessable, it's been about 1/2 vandalism. That's a bit higher than most pages, I'd guess. I'd even guess it is close to fuck in terms of vandalism to content ratio. --Connel MacKenzie 05:11, 20 Jan 2005 (UTC)

Wiktionary:Policies and guidelines

Wiktionary is a collaborative project and its founders and contributors have common goals.

Wiktionary policies and guidelines help us to work toward those common goals. These policies are continually evolving, and need some effort to maintain their evolution. You can contribute to the effort.

Key policies
You don't need to read every Wiktionary policy before you contribute! However, the following principles are key to a productive, collaborative Wiktionary experience, and should always be borne in mind.

 * 1) Wiktionary is a dictionary, thesaurus, and phrasebook.
 * 2) Wiktionary is multi-lingual in that it has entries for words from any language. It aims to cover Every Word from Every Language. This Wiktionary is the English-language Wiktionary. That means the texts of entries, including those for words from other languages, are written in English. Wiktionaries in other languages give definitions of these words in their own languages. See also the developing policy on foreign words and translations.
 * 3) Respect copyrights. Wiktionary is a free dictionary licensed under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License and the Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License. Submitting work which infringes copyrights threatens our objective to build a truly free dictionary that anyone can redistribute, and could lead to legal problems. See Wiktionary copyrights for more information.
 * 4) Avoid bias. Entries should be written from a neutral point of view, representing all usages fairly and sympathetically.
 * 5) Respect other contributors. Wiktionary contributors come from many different countries and cultures, and have widely different views. Treating others with respect is key to collaborating effectively in building this Wiktionary. For some guidelines, see Civility and Dispute resolution.

A former alphabetical list of policies was at Index to Policies, but is no longer maintained.

How are policies decided?
Wiktionary policy will be formulated for the most part by consensus. Consensus can be reached through open debate over difficult questions, or it may simply develop as a result of established practice. The statements on this and other pages about Wiktionary policy are intended to describe community norms that are developing over time.

 * Initial ideas might be discussed in the Beer parlour.
 * As controversial or important policy issues are identified, someone will decide that we should think about having a policy related to this matter and create a vote that the entire community assesses. If a supermajority is reached for a certain opinion, that opinion becomes policy.

Policies that result from established practice are sometimes harder to identify. If there is no objection to the practice, it may be difficult to sustain community attention long enough for a formal process of adopting it as policy. In this situation, the best solution may be to document existing practice on a language's "About" page (see here the "About" page for Latin, as an example) if necessary.

How are policies enforced?
You are a Wiktionary editor! Wiktionary has no editor-in-chief or any central, top-down mechanism whereby the day-to-day progress on the dictionary is monitored and approved. Instead, active participants add new articles, improve others, and make corrections to the content and format problems they see. So the participants are both writers and editors.

Most policies and guidelines are thus implemented by individual users editing pages, and discussing matters with each other.

There are some administrators appointed that will tackle the problems of vandalism and housekeeping, for which they need extra privileges. Anyone with a fair track record of contributions can apply for administrator status.

Talk:go off

Shouldn't this be phrasial verb? --Connel MacKenzie 08:17, 2 Feb 2005 (UTC)
 * The term is "phrasal verb" with no "i". But I've been under the impression that we're sticking to the "basic" set of parts-of-speech inherited from Latin grammar, as discussed elsewhere. A phrasal verb is still a verb and if we're going to distinguish types such as "phrasal verb" we should also also distinguish types like "determiner" which has been reverted a couple of times recently on the grounds of sticking to the basic parts of speech.

 * Also, apparently the term "phrasal verb" is ambiguous and is used in various ways. See the Wikipedia article and its talk page. — Hippietrail 14:05, 2 Feb 2005 (UTC)

 Part of our problem here is that almost all words are ambiguous and used in various ways. It may be prescriptive, but we're going to have to have our own precise definitions for wiktionary terminology (i.e., wiktionary jargon), even if it means giving a few pages to explain _exactly_ what something like "phrasal verb" means within the context of the wiktionary.

 * I am in favour of having our own terminology, or at least symbols. All sizable dictionaries have something of this nature, because it is almost unavoidable. I think we should take a pragmatic approach though. We should stick with just noun, verb, adjective, etc in the major heading. Below that we can provide more technical details for those who are interested.

 * Also note that there are sub-types of phrasal verbs which will be useful to note for learners of English. When a phrasal verb with an adjectival particle is transitive, the particle can sometimes be separated, and sometimes not. — Hippietrail 00:46, 3 Feb 2005 (UTC)

I changed the Hebrew translation of "big" adult from "מבוגר" ("adult") to "גדול" ("big"). In Hebrew, as in English, one don't have to use the word "adult" in order to speak about grown-up person - he can say: "big". In this article, one should translate only the word "big".

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.

Talk:concavo-convex

Discussion on proposed deletion
umm, once again, this is a perfectly valid term, it's used in reference to lenses. It is in almost every dictionary I've looked in. Once again, I'm not sure what the "non grammatic" comment is in reference to, let alone the "no links" one. --E. abu Filumena

 * I did find this in MW Online: Function: adjective

 * : concave on one side and convex on the other
 * : having the concave side curved more than the convex
 * and you had the following links:  1. having one side concave and the other convex

 * See also   concavo-concave
 * Where do these links go? Good form dictates that using a link means you have taken the effort to at least start some sort of definition instead of directing the reader to a blind alley, don't you think?

--HiFlyer 16:30, 10 Jan 2005 (UTC)

 * Someone put in a perfectly good definition for a perfectly good term, concavo-convex. You (or someone using your name) then added an rfd notice, with the text "nonsense, non grammatic, stub, no links".  This seemed wrong on all four counts, though I'm not sure what "non grammatic" might mean in this context.  Certainly the term itself is perfectly good, and the defining text looks fine.

 * Given that the term is attested and the definition was valid, requesting that the article be deleted seems a bit strong, to say the least. One would expect more justification than "nonsense, non grammatic, stub, no links".  It's no surprise that the rfd was quickly reverted.

 * I don't mean to discourage participation. Everyone makes mistakes.  This one just seemed odd, and it came in the midst of quite a bit of wrangling over contentious usage of a few terms.  I apologize if the original comment was harsh. -dmh 15:49, 18 Jan 2005 (UTC)

 * One note: If part of an article is a copyvio, don't add an rfd. The rfd designation applies to the entire article.  It says, "This article shouldn't even be here."  If some defining text is copyrighted, simply remove it.  If you can give a replacement in your own words, great.  Otherwise, you'll probably want to mark the article rfc with a suitable comment, and possibly mark the affected section substub (if it's completely gutted without the deleted text).

 * The article's a keeper. I plan to move the relevant part of the above discussion to it's talk page, and delete the rest. Eclecticology 02:02, 19 Jan 2005 (UTC)

Talk:tidal

Usage
While searching through style manuals in libraries and online for notes on tidal wave vs. tsunami, I read that very early versions of "Fowler's Modern English Usage" (or "The King's English" as it might've been called then) called this word to task - I think based on applying the Romance prefix -al to the Germanic stem tide. But I haven't been able to find this info again so the details may be wrong. By the way, I didn't find any references at all to tsunami - I'm sure this will change in newer editions. — Hippietrail 00:48, 3 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Regional: attractive person
Reverted regional meaning:
 * 1) (Slang): A sexually attractive person of either sex.

That is not the common slang meaning in the US. What region/context is that true for? Please add back in with what region/context it applies to. If that's an Australian term, mark it as:
 * 1) (Australian slang): A sexually attractive person of either sex.

--Connel MacKenzie 05:19, 3 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Here in the UK, I'm pretty sure it can refer to either sex (at least in previous decades) - in fact the impression I have is that it has more traditionally referred to blokes here. (Also adjective "dishy".) I'll try and chase up a reference, or whatever standards Wiktionary requires, if I find time. -- JTN 18:19, 3 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Quotation from Four Weddings and a Funeral: Serena: Excuse me? points out Charles's brother, who is talking to Charles in sign language Who's the boy over there? In the grey? Matthew: Name's David. Serena: watching David admiringly He's something of a dish, isn't he. Matthew: I've always thought so. Serena: Why are they... why are they...? mimicking the sign language Matthew: Oh, the dish can't hear. Serena: Gosh... Matthew: Yeah. Silent, but deadly attractive.

 * Thank you. I'm adding your meaning back in, as a UK meaning.  I just had no idea what region might have that meaning.  That's all I was trying to ask for; no references (other than your attestation) needed.  --Connel MacKenzie 06:24, 4 Feb 2005 (UTC)

 * I've also heard it used to refer to men in the parts of the US I've been to. I won't deny that it is more commonly heard in reference to a woman, but more and more frequently I am hearing "dish" referring to a man.--Alia H 00:53, 24 Feb 2005 (UTC)

To Dish AND To Diss
Conjecture:

The verb "to dish" (in the sense "to dish on") something or someone means to critizice.

The verb "to diss" something or someone has the same meaning.

My conjecture is that the former arose from an erroneous pronunciation and spelling of the latter.

Does etymology support this? Oconnell usa 21:49, 2 October 2009 (UTC)
