Wiktionary

For current proposals to update Wiktionary software and interfaces, see Upgrading Wiktionary

Wiktionary is a project to create open content dictionaries in every language. The first Wiktionary was the English language Wiktionary, created by Brion Vibber on 12 December 2002. French and Polish language Wiktionaries followed over a year later, on 22 March 2004. On 1 May 2004, Tim Starling initialised Wiktionaries in every language for which there was an existing Wikipedia, leading to 143 new Wiktionaries. At this time, Wikimedia consisted of 146 Wikipedias, 146 Wiktionaries and six other projects (meta, quote, sep11, sources, textbook, test). The page "Requests for Wiktionary permissions" was created on May 2 so that stewards could deal with increase in permission requests by users needing administrator access on these new projects. This was later merged with Requests for permissions.

Case sensitivity

For many Wiktionaries the first character of the page name (outside the main namespace: after the namespace prefix) is case-sensitive, see list.

The trend is to do away with first character capitalisation. GerardM 20:06, 19 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
