So you want to add the words of your conlang to our dictionary? Well, worry not, it's a mostly pain free process! | |||
== | ==Contionary what?== | ||
The contionary is meant to be similar to | The contionary (from conlang + dictionary) is meant to be similar to MediaWiki's Wiktionary project with the difference that here, conlangs, be they notable or not are all welcome! | ||
Getting excited yet? | |||
==So what do I do?== | |||
Well, Billy, when a man loves a– I kid. | |||
== | |||
To first begin, you must have your word ready and everything. Now that you have your word, go to the [[Linguifex:Contionary|Contionary main page]] page, where you will be met by a "add your word" box. | |||
As you add your word the wiki will load an editing page for you, the new entry template, which looks something like this. | |||
<code> | |||
<nowiki> | |||
{{subst:User:Chrysophylax/Template:nous | |||
|1=English | |||
= | |2=entry | ||
|POS=Noun | |||
|IPA=ˈentʰɹɪ | |||
|POS2=noun | |||
}} | |||
</nowiki></code> | |||
It's pretty simple from here on. | |||
*1. Copy this template outside the commented area | |||
*2. Fill in 1 (language), 2 (your word), POS (part of speech), IPA<sup>1</sup> (pronunciation), POS2 (again, part of speech but in lowercase). | |||
*3. Click 'Save page' | |||
This will create a page with an etymology section, a related section, categorise the page as a contionary entry and lots of other stuff. Feel free to edit the page again to add the correct etymology, related terms and such. | |||
<sup>1</sup> - You can write IPA in the wiki editor without a special keyboard by going to Special characters > IPA. | |||
==Done, but how do I get those fancy tables?== | |||
Well, if you're referring to 'fancy tables' like | |||
{{ | {{User:Chrysophylax/Template:qh_r_conj|fancypants|fancypantsa}} | ||
Then the simplest way to get them is by making a template. You can take a look at other user's templates and copy/modify to your heart's delight or ask nicely on someone's talk to help you out. | |||
''' | Remember, anything that starts with <nowiki>{{</nowiki> is a template and it is ended with <nowiki>}}</nowiki>. You can go to the template's page and look at it by going to the page within the brackets <nowiki>{{ }}</nowiki>. | ||
