Hi,
I suggest rejecting the request for Ancient Greek Wiktionary according to the policy: Only Wikisource editions in ancient languages are allowed, and even they are encouraged to be a part of Wikisource in a modern version of that language.
There is no need to write definitions in Ancient Greek. Ancient Greek words exist quite well in the Wiktionary in (modern) Greek, English, etc. for example: https://el.wiktionary.org/wiki/%CE%B3%CE%AC%CF%81 https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/%CE%B3%CE%AC%CF%81
I don't see any strong arguments to make an exception on the proposal discussion page https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Requests_for_new_languages/Wiktionary_Ancien... .

Agreed!
