Muke (disputatio | conlationes)
Linea 172:
 
What I am looking for is a simple method to enter information of that sort to the Victionarium. If there were exact rules, it should be possible to automatically generate stubs from these 6 parameters. What are the rules for the page names? The language seems to be distinguished at the page name level ("rosa (de)") but homonyms seem to be distinguished at the content level. What for is this "caput"? Is this (basicly) redundant to the page name? Or can we have more than a single caput per page? Compared to other Wiktionaries, the Latin Victionarium seems to be more formal, unfortunately - as you said - the ideas behind it are not explicitly listed. If you have the answers, I will have the questions :-) My main interest is the translation part of the Victionarium, the mapping between terms in different languages, not to explain a term in Latin, which someone might assume to be the most interesting part of a dictionary. How do my actual interests match the "mission" of Victionarium? --[[Usor:Roland2|Roland2]] 09:35, 5 Iunii 2006 (UTC)
 
:"caput" is the title form of the page name. For most languages this is the word capitalized; for some languages like Lojban ([[xirma]]) or Klingon [[bIQ]] it isn't; and for some languages a different title is provided for a special reason, e.g. Ancient Egyptian, which, not being in Unicode, gets Manuel de Codage titles like [[W22*X1:N1-B1]] but which are displayed properly with wikihiero; or items with multiple valid forms (such as [[sulfur (en)]], [[elephantus]], or [[Ω]]); or forms with ligatures etc. for 'pretty display' (e.g. [[Aegyptus]]).
:The page name itself should be the form of the word as you would find in an ordinary book for a native speaker, ''without'' special typographic/optional formatting such as ligatures or diacritical marks (e.g. Arabic vowels or Latin æ).
:Anyway, I actually had been working towards similar to this, before the capitalization change. At that time when you did a search, and no results were returned, the create-a-new-page link actually pre-filled the page with [[Formula:Exemplum]] (using [[m:Help:Inputbox|Help:Inputbox]]) I had been wanting to extend this with better-commented, language-specific templates (preferably with the documentation bilingual in Latin and the language), linked from language project pages such as [[Victionarium:Lingua Germanica]], but I have not yet gotten around to this. —[[Usor:Mycēs|Myces Tiberinus]] 00:37, 6 Iunii 2006 (UTC)
