German entry in English

[edit]

This seems to be a German entry in the en.wiktionary.org

duplicate capitalization entries

[edit]

It seems foolish to have 2 entries for capitalized and non-capitalized versions of the same word, even if there is are distinct meanings.

problematic Tea room discussion

[edit]

"to discuss this entry, please go to Wiktionary:Tea room" with no further explanation there, nor an obvious location to put the discussion of this word.
It seems foolish to push discussion of this (every) entry to elsewhere, apparently called a Tea Room (which I cannot find relates to this word.) Anyone wishing to discuss or edit this word would reasonably need to find this word first, and Occam's Razor would have the discussion here, where there has always been a discussion structure built-in. It should be easy to find the correct place to ask a question of editors in general, but that is another problem.
It should be easy to find out where any of these topics belong. ... It is not. Maybe I can find & link to them later.

Hello Wikidity. We count phallus and Phallus as separate words, which they are due to the initial capital letter. Also one is German and the other is English (and other languages, but not German) so they're in no way 'the same word'. Also we do allow other languages here other than English. It's in fact central to our mission statement "all words in all languages". Phallus is a word, German is a language. No problems here. Renard Migrant (talk) 15:21, 15 December 2015 (UTC)Reply
