[edit] The trademark symbol
The ® symbol should appear at least once on any page that uses the mark, and it should be immediately after the mark as above. Wikipedia's homepage is http://www.wikipedia.org.
I've just noticed that Wikipedia's home page does not itself contain any instance of the ® symbol... Surprising, no?
Oui
[edit] Moved
Just moved names to terms after coming across it on wiki. Seems like a better title and I registered just to move. Anyone can revert if they think names is better, since I really have involvement here. Miltopia 23:51, 18 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Collateral naming issue
There exist a set of typing aids and I just navigated to here in an attempt to understand a point made about the one template:Mw (edit•talk•links•history) and the associated (redirect or equivilent) version {{MW}} which is used as a pipelinkable work around for text ported between the various sister projects, and in particular, in common documentation notes for templates shared between the various English language wiki's. This discussion will be found on commons:Template talk:Mw when I answer. The problem is {{Mw}} reaches a page here in those usages, as the templates 'M', 'Meta' and the like were already used on one sister or another. The self-documentation array of sister projects is one big user.
Now apparently the foundation is establishing Wikimedia, with the similar prefix: Mw:, opening up a confusion factor that didn't exist when established. I'm open to suggestions.
- My suggestion here is this
- It would be a good idea to document such prefixes that are in existance in such discussion pages as this one. There is one page on wikipedia that does that, but as this clarification of a sister project is 'news', such corrallary information might be considered as useful here as well. Discussion on {{Mw}} should be acknowledged on the commons, but may be moved to wikipedia. // FrankB 20:41, 15 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] French/English glossary
For a French/English glossary, have a look at User:Teofilo/glossary. Teofilo 20:29, 29 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Suggested source material
If you are serious about trying to get this going, you might want to look in a couple of other places where similar glossaries have already been put together.
Here is a good one to look at adding in here (although centered on Wikibooks users):
I'm sure I can come up with some other words, but this is a good place to start. --Roberth 07:37, 30 January 2007 (UTC)
