Overview edit

General:

  • Category:Requests – A root and heterogenous category for requests, with a wide variety of subcategories including requests for new entries per language, for cleanup, for adding headers to translation tables, for audio pronunciation, for etymology and more.

English entries to write:

Non-English entries to write or update:

Translations in "Translations" sections of English entries:

  • Add translations requested in Category:Requests for translations by language.
  • Check translations – Many translations of English entries listed without a specific sense. When the English entry is completed or a specific sense is added, contributors use Script error: No such module "template parser/templates". or Script error: No such module "template parser/templates". to list the entry there. Please help clear some out.

Others:

  • Appendix:Swadesh lists — Add lists of basic vocabulary in many world languages.
  • Pronunciations that differ in UK and US English (and other varieties) – A list of these words is given in Wikipedia. Add pronunciations for these only if you are thoroughly familiar with how to transcribe UK and US pronunciation using the IPA and SAMPA pronunciation schemes.
  • Wikiv terminology lists – Add terms and definitions from Wikiv's glossaries and terminology lists and appendices. One such list is in w:Musical terminology. Partial lists also reside at w:Category:Glossaries and w:List of glossaries. Many are good candidates for manual importation and editing to check the definitions and make them Wikiv-ready. We can also help both projects by flagging other Wikiv word lists with these categories as we find them.
