3- Reliable : Because there is field where the member should (but not required to) enter the refernces [i.e. from where did he get this word and its meaning]
4- A Desktop application will be provided as an alternative to the web interface and to give more functionallity (like downloading the entire database and seacrh offline)

I can see no body interested in the dictionary project
Well, I am afraid I can't do it alone
Yes, I am capable of doing the programming/web designing stuff
But my knowledge in Coptic still considered limited
After knowing more about Coptic i found thats making a dictionary is not as simple as i expected
I am not able to make a design for the dictionary
working in this project will be halted until I find someone who can help
or until I get enough knowledge to help myself

ﻷ انتي مفهمتينيش
انا مش محتاج مساعدة في اضافة كلمات للقاموس
انا محتاج مساعدة في عمل القاموس نفسه
(عمل القاموس يعني تصميمه و ازاي الناس تضيف كلمات جديدة فيه و حاجات زي كدة)
و لما اخلص عمل القاموس ابقى اشوف مين ممكن يساعدني في اضافة كلمات جديدة
عموما شكرا على اهتمامك
انا عارف الجروب كويس
بس التعامل فيها بيبقى صعب شوية عشان الكلام بياخد وقت طويل على ما يتحط في الجروب
(The approval for the new posts takes long time)
عشان كدة كسلت اكتب عن القاموس هناك
شكرا مرة تانية على الرد - على الاقل حد عبرني
