You can create your User page by clicking on it. We recommend that you integrate the babel template onto it. It is very useful to indicate to others the languages you speak, and to facilitate finding other persons speaking your languages. If you are not familiar with wikicode, you can go to this demo User page, read the instructions and copy the prepared babel template, and then paste it onto your user page before adapting it to your information. You can then publish your User page!

Kurdish lists to test ?
hello,
I noticed the emerging efforts of the Kurdish community, and noticed one of your community's bottleneck may be the lack of lists of words. I wonder if I could help, so I looked for and found a free frequency list online with the language code ku, which I believe is the same as kur (Kurdish language). I coded a command and created the two following lists :
Since I don't read Kurdish could you help me by confirming to me: are these lists indeed in Kurdish language ? are these frequency list relevant (are the words are indeed frequent Kurdish words) ? There may be minor noise such as letters or frequent acronyms, but it believe these list should be +95% to +99% of highly used Kurdish words. Yug (talk) 12:10, 24 February 2021 (UTC)
Note:I did not find ckb – Sorani, kmr – Kurmanji, sdh – Southern Kurdish, nor lki – Laki language resources. Yug (talk) 12:46, 24 February 2021 (UTC)
- @Yug These are all (Northern) Kurdish (Kurmanji) words. I believe you got the list from User:Şêr who prepared it from 37 issues of Le Monde diplomatique Kurdî. They are not manually edited to be in their dictionary form, still quite usefull tho, thank you so much! Btw I'm bothered by the lang codes used here. unicode.org Language Identifier Field Definitions says use "ku" for Northern Kurdish (Kurmanji), we use "ku" on ku.wikt as well but en.wikt recently switched to "kmr" (which I supported at the time). And right now all the kurdish words listed in c:Category:Lingua Libre pronunciation-kur are in Northern Kurdish. I'm worried once Sorani (Central Kurdish) "ckb" starts uploading pronunciations, we might get in a little trouble. Any idea what to do?--Balyozxane (talk) 13:39, 24 February 2021 (UTC)
