What is Coptionary?

[copticray]

Nofri
Coptionary is a Wiktionary (i.e. a Wiki type of dictionary) for the Coptic language, where users can search words and find their meaning,  find synonymous, or different spelling for different dialects.
The use of Coptionary will be open for public, but to edit you have to register. This is why we hosted the wiki locally at this website instead of hosting it in Wiktionary (which is a hassle in itself)
The reason we decided that only registered users can create/edit pages is that we want to insure a certain level of quality in the wiki, we can insure it by moderation (which requires a lot of work and dedication) or by registering only trusted users.
If you want to add material to the wiki, please reply to this thread and Admin will create you a user name and a password.
In Christ.

My beloved friends. I want to participate with you in the Coptionary dictionary. Can you add and register me that I may participate and add words to your Coptionary dictionary? May God bless our language. Thank you.

If you want to add material to the wiki, please reply to this thread and Admin will create you a user name and a password.

Please send me a user ID and password for the Coptionary Wiki and advise me on the best length for scriptural examples.

I understand your point that the Coptic and English translations will need to match precisely.

In the case of scriptural references should the entire verse be quoted (with its translation)?

Please advise.

[Admin]

should you provide the complete verse? You don't have to give the complete verse (as long as the part you mention is enough to clarify the meaning of word)

as for your username/password, please give me a day or two
I need to do some cleanup to the wiki first, before you start contributing
Thanks for your interest and your patience, I will send you an email (to the address you register here with)  as soon as I get your account ready
