I've created an "English Dictionary Hotlist" of over 300,000 entries as part of [[Wiktionary:Requested articles]]. Please read the guidelines before getting involved in the list. I have a lot of experience with this from the Wikipedia equivalent at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Missing_encyclopedic_arti... .
If you are worried about copyright violations, don't be. Problems of the exact same nature occurred on the English Wikipedia several months ago, and the opinions of both juriwiki and the foundation were that indexes of multiple encyclopedias, if mixed together, would not create a copyright violation. Unless you are a legal expert, please investigate the history of the other mixed lists (linked below) before coming to a different conclusion.

There was never any Foundation decision made about this. Individual members of the Foundation might have expressed an opinion one way or the other (and as far as I know, the members of the board are not in agreement about whether this constitutes a copyright violation), but please don't present it as a Foundation opinion. The Foundation does not give legal advice.

Why didn't you jusst merge it with [[Wiktionary:English index]] which serves the same purpose. I don't see the point of having two or more such lists.
