Good morning!
And congratulations to number 5.000 to Gerard :-) it seems to be some
strange coincidence.
Yesterday before going to bed I noted that
it.wiktionary.org does not
seem to have an admin - why I noted this? I was searching for someone to
ask about the capitalisation issue on the Italian wiktionary in order to
avoid double work starting to upload the acutal colour list I have.
Besides that I noted that a user is uploading images and descriptions
that to my opinion should be on wikipedia and not on wiktionary:
http://it.wiktionary.org/wiki/Rosso_araldico
http://it.wiktionary.org/wiki/Croce_araldica
As the descritption of the aspects, history, dimensions, proportions
etc. should not appear there, but the term, maybe from which language it
comes from, if its a noun, verb, adverb etc., as well as the
translations. If an explanation than one like in the Oxford Dictionary.
I already contacted this user and asked him to hold on for a moment as I
wanted to ask how to go ahead on this.
One of his questions was: how to create links from wiktionary to
wikipedia (to articles with the same name and with similar names). Where
can I find the rules for linking or is it just to insert the definite
weblink starting with
http://it.wikipedia.org/....?
So who is the one I need to talk to for the Italian admin and if there
isn't one what to do to become one - as things need to be adjusted now
and not somewhere in the future. Imagine a person uploading 1500 terms
including images ... sigh ... and then having to adapt
hundreds/thousands of terms to upper/lowercase ... no, this must be done
now.
Ciao, Sabine
I want to inform you all that the nl:wiktionary has
reached its 5000th
article. The word was Italie (French for Italy).
To celebrate it, I have uploaded 100 spoken words to Commons. They are
in the format xx-word.ogg xx for the ISO 639 code, word, is the spoken
word and .ogg because that is the sound format that we use.
