Revision as of 14:53, 8 September 2021

Welcome to Glottopedia, the free encyclopedia of linguistics.

Temporary downtime for maintenance: 9th October 2021 to 11th October 2021

Glottopedia has been updated.

Update information (17th September 2020)
The update to the newest version of Mediawiki has been completed.
During the process 168 users without an ID in the database have been deleted, this should not cause any problems since users without IDs are not activated accounts and as such can not edit the wiki. If you experience problems with your user account please contact glottopedia[at]uni-trier.de.
It appears that no data was lost during transfer, except for one page that has been recovered. The old version of Glottopedia will still be available for an indeterminate amount of time, but it will not be editable any longer. If you find any pages that are missing in this updated version please contact glottopedia[at]uni-trier.de.
Some minor tweaks are still necessary and will be completed shortly.
We ask you to keep a copy of your edits/created pages until we are sure this new version of Mediawiki runs smoothly.
Update information (2nd November 2020)
The website for the old version of Glottopedia is not available anymore.

Introduction  -  Frequently asked questions  -  Contact  -  All articles A–Z  -  Number of articles: 3,227  -  Glottopedia in German

Glottopedia is a freely editable encyclopedia for linguists by linguists that is currently being built up. It will contain dictionary articles on all technical terms of linguistics and is multilingual. In addition, there are survey articles, biographical articles and language articles, potentially on all linguists and all languages.

Glottopedia articles also exist in German, Spanish, Italian, French, Russian, Danish, Swedish, Chinese, Japanese, Norwegian (Nynorsk), and in the future hopefully also in many other languages.
