Names and attributes must be accommodated to the essence of things, and not the essence to the names, since things come first and names afterwards. &mdash; 1832, Galileo Galilei

[T]he maximum number of revisions an author made is 237,600 for the English Wiktionary (user "Equinox") ... As an anonymous reviewer points out, this "sounds as [sic] an incredibly high number of revisions for one single user".'' &mdash; 2016, Wolfer & Müller-Spitzer, How Many People Constitute a Crowd and What Do They Do?

About me
Hi. I've been on Wiktionary since mid-2006. I encounter books, newspapers, and everyday life.

Things to do, apart from adding words

 * Why doesn't my headset work? I could record a zillion words. Try it on another PC. If it's super-quiet and broken even there, buy a new one.
 * Ditto: deal with the initialisms and abbreviations that need a proper part of speech.
 * Go through Special:WhatLinksHere/%26c. and replace those prissy, attention-seeking "&c." links with "etc."
 * Things not to do: finish my excellent desktop Wiktionary with loads of power-user shortcut keys, since templates change too fast and I would end up vandalising without knowing it. *cry*

Other places to get words

 * Requested entries (English)
 * List of languages (language names)
 * : lots of terms for obsolete music notation
 * (todo: I thru W)
 * (continue from book)
 * Eton College glossary (copyrighted)
 * Terms from basketry (copyrighted): slath, soumak etc.
 * : lots of technical terms here.
 * : e.g. coffin, bullfinch.
 * : links to thousands of scientific words
 * : many parts of fly anatomy (see labelled diagrams)
