Welcome

Hello, welcome to Wiktionary, and thank you for your contributions so far.

If you are unfamiliar with wiki-editing, take a look at Help:How to edit a page. It is a concise list of technical guidelines to the wiki format we use here: how to, for example, make text boldfaced or create hyperlinks. Feel free to practice in the sandbox. If you would like a slower introduction we have a short tutorial.

These links may help you familiarize yourself with Wiktionary:

• Entry layout (EL) is a detailed policy on Wiktionary's page formatting; all entries must conform to it. The easiest way to start off is to copy the contents of an existing same-language entry, and then adapt it to fit the entry you are creating.
• Check out Language considerations to find out more about how to edit for a particular language.
• Our Criteria for Inclusion (CFI) defines exactly which words can be added to Wiktionary; the most important part is that Wiktionary only accepts words that have been in somewhat widespread use over the course of at least a year, and citations that demonstrate usage can be asked for when there is doubt.
• If you already have some experience with editing our sister project Wikipedia, then you may find our guide for Wikipedia users useful.
• If you have any questions, bring them to Wiktionary:Information desk or ask me on my talk page.
• Whenever commenting on any discussion page, please sign your posts with four tildes (~~~~) which automatically produces your username and timestamp.
• You are encouraged to add a BabelBox to your userpage to indicate your self-assessed knowledge of languages.

Enjoy your stay at Wiktionary! — Keφr 18:11, 20 October 2014 (UTC)

Knowledge of Swedish

I'm curious; how much do you know about the Swedish language? That's what the Babel Box is for so add something like sv-N. --Lo Ximiendo (talk) 07:43, 25 October 2014 (UTC)

Hi. Sorry that I was missing a Babel Box. I'm a relatively new user, but I have added one now specifying that I'm a native Swedish speaker with good grasp of English. Based on a wiktionary dump I have programatically compiled a list of words lacking Swedish translations and I'm working on providing such translations to the subset of words that I deem frequent or interesting enough to merit the effort. That's the reason for my relatively high edit pace, despite which I do take the time to carefully check most of my entries against other sources. Tango24 (talk) 07:56, 25 October 2014 (UTC)
