The desirability of new entries varies according to which language Wiktionar(y/ies) will host the efforts, which language the entries will be in and which language is the native language of the students. Specifically, for English language words on English Wiktionary, coverage is high. There ar

Hi, I'll send you the slides as soon as I get my computer (Monday maybe). My course was part of a 24h session by professionals, for M1 and M2. So, I just asked a short question to discuss a new issue Wiktionary have and other dictionaries don't. During the class, I suggested several possible answe

Hello! Hope this finds you well. I am teaching Lexicography to junior university students this semester. What are ways I can incorporate Wikitionary in the syllabus? The idea I have now is to make them complete a project on Wikitionary by adding entries to it. I think it would be awesome for them
