Event:Editing Swánga̱lyiatwuki-WikiWoordenboek Joint Wiktionary Editing Part 2
This is the Part 2 version of the Swánga̱lyiatwuki-WikiWoordenboek Joint Pilot Wiktionary Editing project. Just as the first part held between January 11 - February 28, 2025, this project is being organized by the Wiktionary team of Wikimedia Netherlands and the Tyap Wikimedians User Group (TWU) to edit each other's language in the other's Wiktionary with the English language as an interface. Words of Tyap [kcg] origin would be added into the WikiWoordenboek and those of Dutch [nl] origin added in the Swánga̱lyiatwuki.

Participants
[edit]Participants from Dutch and Tyap speaking backgrounds to create entries for each other's language's glosses in both Wiktionaries.
How to participate
[edit]Welcome to this interesting pilot collaborative project!
You can be able to participate in this project through the following ways:
- Creating a whole new entry in your home Wiktionary related to the working partner's language or people (E.g., Tyap in WikiWoordenboek or Dot in Swánga̱lyiatwuki).
- Creating a whole new entry for a word in your language in the working partner's Wiktionary i.e., if you can navigate through the working partner's Wiktionary and language (E.g., a̱lakumi in WikiWoordenboek or kameel in Swánga̱lyiatwuki).
- Adding translations in one's language to entries in the working partner's Wiktionary (E.g., a̱gwomna̱ti in WikiWoordenboek or tijd in Swánga̱lyiatwuki).
NB:
- When one opts to create an entry in one's language in the working partner's Wiktionary, the description would be in the working partner's language, not in English (E.g., a̱lakumi in WikiWoordenboek and kameel in Swánga̱lyiatwuki).
- Remember to add category to newly created entries. I.e.,
Sa:Swánga̱lyiatwuki-WikiWoordenboek project Part 2, and this category shows increase in Dutch entries in the Swánga̱lyiatwuki. On WikiWoordenboek the progress can be monitored in this category and at the project page in Dutch. - If you create a new entry not in the table below, please remember to add it to the table here below. This is to enable us track the progress of our pilot project!
