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! --Lo Ximiendo (talk) 08:41, 6 November 2014 (UTC)

First Few Questions

I have some questions for you. Do you mean the Ligurian word nesciu (and its alternative form nescio) to be an adjective instead of a noun? How much do you know about the Ligurian language? (The latter question is why I have a Babel Box.) I also edited some of your entries with things such as {{lij-noun}} and the four dashes/hyphens (which is to be used between different language entries). --Lo Ximiendo (talk) 09:16, 6 November 2014 (UTC)

It can be used either as a pure adjective or as a substantivated adjective. I'm a native speaker. Cheers--Ulisse0 (talk) 09:51, 6 November 2014 (UTC)

The four hyphens aren't used in a page that mentions only one language; in your case, Ligurian, as seen in the pages rician and sâ for example. --Lo Ximiendo (talk) 11:24, 6 November 2014 (UTC)

{{alternative form of}} goes in the definition line, and even "alternative form" entries need part-of-speech headers. I think you should sometimes read the warning which tells you that. — Keφr 17:47, 6 November 2014 (UTC)
