[edit]Welcome
[edit]Hello, and welcome to Wiktionary! If you have edited Wikipedia, you probably already know some basics, but Wiktionary does have a few conventions of its own. Please take a moment to learn our basics before jumping in.
First, all articles should be in our standard format, even if they are not yet complete. Please take a moment to familiarize yourself with it. You can use one of our pre-defined article templates by typing the name of a non-existent article into the search box and hitting 'Go'.
Notice that article titles are case-sensitive and are not capitalized unless, like proper nouns, they are ordinarily capitalized (Poland or January). Also, take a moment to familiarize yourself with our criteria for inclusion, since Wiktionary is not an encyclopedia. Read our Transwiki process, if you plan to work on that.
Finally, you can link Wikipedia pages, including your user page, using [[w:pagename]], {{wikipedia}}, or {{wikipediapar|pagename}}. Please do not create redirects to Wikipedia pages, though. They don't work.
We hope you enjoy editing Wiktionary and being a Wiktionarian. — Vildricianus 16:09, 22 April 2006 (UTC)
Hi There, I notice you have created an account for a bot, however you have as yet not entered into any discussion about what this bot will do - why - or whether people actually want it to do so. By adding {{bot}} to the user page it adds the page to Category:Wiktionary bots which it should not be in, as it cannot be a bot here yet. Could you please remove the template from the page or explain. Yours. Conrad.Irwin 21:10, 26 March 2008 (UTC)
- In order to keep track of well over 200 accounts I mark my bot accounts with this template. Please for the love of madness leave it as is. I will request a bot flag in a few days. Bots can operate without a bot flag. Please do not make my job more complicated than it already is. Thanks. -- Cat chi? 21:31, 26 March 2008 (UTC)
On the English Wiktionary, three letter templates are reserved for language codes. This is to make a lot of our automated editing and templates work. Please do not change them. Conrad.Irwin 21:14, 26 March 2008 (UTC)
- Why do you even need templates for that? I believe Mediawiki has ISO codes built in to it. -- Cat chi? 21:32, 26 March 2008 (UTC)
- It does not have them all, unfortunately. It is the way we do things here and is unlikely to change for a long time. Conrad.Irwin 21:33, 26 March 2008 (UTC)
- I checked w:Bot and saw no ISO code for a Bongo language. No mention of such a language on w:Bongo. I wager there was never an ISO code for it. Does that language even exist?
- So long as wiktionary is a wiki change will always happen, slow or not ;)

- See this list. It is one of the w:Papuan languages. Conrad.Irwin 21:41, 26 March 2008 (UTC)
Bot userpage
[edit]Please leave my bot userpage alone. Thanks. -- Cat chi? 21:02, 26 March 2008 (UTC)
- It is not a registered bot (see WT:BOT); therefore it does not have a userpage. You are currently hogging three separate accounts, and have no permission to run a bot here. --EncycloPetey 21:43, 26 March 2008 (UTC)
Your account will be renamed
[edit]Hello,
The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.
Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Computer. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Computer~enwiktionary that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name.
Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.
Sorry for the inconvenience.
Yours,
Keegan Peterzell
