I find myself wondering what the need for a separate wiki-thesaurus is. The separation expressly produces duplicate entries on any given word and complicates the effort of finding a good word for a given subject. The current construction is difficult to navigate, I don't know if a given word has a wikisaurus entry even if it has a Wiktionary entry. Dictionaries (at least the dictionaries I'm accustomed to) generally include synonyms/antonyms as part of their entries and the use of Semantic wiki should make that even easier. Even Wikisaurus itself, with proper template formatting, doesn't contain anything that couldn't be neatly added to the mainspace entries. I don't mean to denigrate or minimize the work being done at this project, but it seems like an unnecessary division of projects that creates unnecessary work for editors (you don't need to specify that you use the same inclusion criteria if you're no forking the project) and makes finding good information more difficult for users (it took me a while to realize that wikisaurus even exists). <a href="https://en-wiktionary-org.translate.goog/wiki/User:Darker_Dreams?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="User:Darker Dreams">Darker Dreams</a> <a href="https://en-wiktionary-org.translate.goog/wiki/Wiktionary_talk:Thesaurus?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB#c-Darker_Dreams-2011-12-07T07:20:00.000Z-Why_Wikisaurus" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">07:20, 7 December 2011 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Darker_Dreams-2011-12-07T07:20:00.000Z-Why_Wikisaurus"><span id="ooui-php-1" class="ext-discussiontools-init-replybutton oo-ui-widget oo-ui-widget-enabled oo-ui-buttonElement oo-ui-buttonElement-frameless oo-ui-labelElement oo-ui-flaggedElement-progressive oo-ui-buttonWidget" data-ooui="{"_":"OO.ui.ButtonWidget","rel":["nofollow"],"framed":false,"label":"Reply","flags":["progressive"],"classes":["ext-discussiontools-init-replybutton"]}"><a role="button" tabindex="0" rel="nofollow" class="oo-ui-buttonElement-button"><span class="oo-ui-iconElement-icon oo-ui-iconElement-noIcon oo-ui-image-progressive"></span><span class="oo-ui-labelElement-label">Reply</span><span class="oo-ui-indicatorElement-indicator oo-ui-indicatorElement-noIndicator oo-ui-image-progressive"></span></a></span></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Darker_Dreams-2011-12-07T07:20:00.000Z-Why_Wikisaurus"></span></p> <dl> <dd> <span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Dan_Polansky-2011-12-07T10:14:00.000Z-Darker_Dreams-2011-12-07T07:20:00.000Z"></span>My reasons why it is worthwhile to have Wikisaurus are spelled out here: <a href="https://en-wiktionary-org.translate.goog/wiki/User:Dan_Polansky/Wikisaurus?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB#Benefits_over_the_mainspace" class="mw-redirect" title="User:Dan Polansky/Wikisaurus">User:Dan_Polansky/Wikisaurus#Benefits_over_the_mainspace</a>. --<a href="https://en-wiktionary-org.translate.goog/wiki/User:Dan_Polansky?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="User:Dan Polansky">Dan Polansky</a> <a href="https://en-wiktionary-org.translate.goog/wiki/Wiktionary_talk:Thesaurus?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB#c-Dan_Polansky-2011-12-07T10:14:00.000Z-Darker_Dreams-2011-12-07T07:20:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">10:14, 7 December 2011 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Dan_Polansky-2011-12-07T10:14:00.000Z-Darker_Dreams-2011-12-07T07:20:00.000Z"><span id="ooui-php-2" class="ext-discussiontools-init-replybutton oo-ui-widget oo-ui-widget-enabled oo-ui-buttonElement oo-ui-buttonElement-frameless oo-ui-labelElement oo-ui-flaggedElement-progressive oo-ui-buttonWidget" data-ooui="{"_":"OO.ui.ButtonWidget","rel":["nofollow"],"framed":false,"label":"Reply","flags":["progressive"],"classes":["ext-discussiontools-init-replybutton"]}"><a role="button" tabindex="0" rel="nofollow" class="oo-ui-buttonElement-button"><span class="oo-ui-iconElement-icon oo-ui-iconElement-noIcon oo-ui-image-progressive"></span><span class="oo-ui-labelElement-label">Reply</span><span class="oo-ui-indicatorElement-indicator oo-ui-indicatorElement-noIndicator oo-ui-image-progressive"></span></a></span></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Dan_Polansky-2011-12-07T10:14:00.000Z-Darker_Dreams-2011-12-07T07:20:00.000Z"></span> <dl> <dd> <span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Darker_Dreams-2011-12-07T21:14:00.000Z-Dan_Polansky-2011-12-07T10:14:00.000Z"></span>I started to try a point by point reply, but that huge block of unformatted text is not particularly easy to parse, so I'll just leave it that I disagree. As a user, having the thesaurus (synonym) functions separated out makes wiktionary less useful and usable for me. I'm also disinclined to put energy into working on what looks like a restart of the mainspace project. Honestly, the wiktionary articles are more akin to what I'm accustomed to from dictionaries (a definition and some related synonyms. Add a pronunciation and some example uses and you're there) than the mainspace's articles which are almost entirely focused on the word's association with other languages. <a href="https://en-wiktionary-org.translate.goog/wiki/User:Darker_Dreams?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="User:Darker Dreams">Darker Dreams</a> <a href="https://en-wiktionary-org.translate.goog/wiki/Wiktionary_talk:Thesaurus?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB#c-Darker_Dreams-2011-12-07T21:14:00.000Z-Dan_Polansky-2011-12-07T10:14:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">21:14, 7 December 2011 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Darker_Dreams-2011-12-07T21:14:00.000Z-Dan_Polansky-2011-12-07T10:14:00.000Z"><span id="ooui-php-3" class="ext-discussiontools-init-replybutton oo-ui-widget oo-ui-widget-enabled oo-ui-buttonElement oo-ui-buttonElement-frameless oo-ui-labelElement oo-ui-flaggedElement-progressive oo-ui-buttonWidget" data-ooui="{"_":"OO.ui.ButtonWidget","rel":["nofollow"],"framed":false,"label":"Reply","flags":["progressive"],"classes":["ext-discussiontools-init-replybutton"]}"><a role="button" tabindex="0" rel="nofollow" class="oo-ui-buttonElement-button"><span class="oo-ui-iconElement-icon oo-ui-iconElement-noIcon oo-ui-image-progressive"></span><span class="oo-ui-labelElement-label">Reply</span><span class="oo-ui-indicatorElement-indicator oo-ui-indicatorElement-noIndicator oo-ui-image-progressive"></span></a></span></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Darker_Dreams-2011-12-07T21:14:00.000Z-Dan_Polansky-2011-12-07T10:14:00.000Z"></span> <dl> <dd> <span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Dan_Polansky-2011-12-08T12:32:00.000Z-Darker_Dreams-2011-12-07T21:14:00.000Z"></span>What you are referring to as a "huge block of unformatted text" is a paragraph that has 640 words. The only way in which it is unformatted is in that it does not use typographical bullet points; instead, it uses natural language keywords such as "First", "Second", and "Third".

Separation from the linguistic and wiktionary sections - granted. But no reason for wikisaurus. Just a Thesaurus section.</li> <li>2. Easier on editor? Why. Give the editor the possibility to add remove and sort thesaurus terms at will, in its section. A user interface could be developed similar to that for the translation interlinks, and users (not editors) could even vote the usage of a thesaurus term up or down, moving it forward or backwards in the current context. This will create a true mapping between all entries.</li> <li>3. Ease of maintenance - only if there are less terms, and all connected terms are kept with same order of importance. But when you link from animal back to cat, I don't think it will be in the same order as from cat to animal.</li> <li>4. Ease of use - It can show up on the search engines just the same. Probably. Maybe I'm wrong. So when you link to the wiktionary on the search engine, if you chose the thesaurus section, your taken to it, open already.</li> <li>5. You mean that if I update Cat, the Animal thesaurus may be missing something? I don't think so.</li> <li>6. Easy moving of semantic clusters. - copy and paste?</li> <li>7. Linking to non wiktionary terms - Well your right. But since your not going to explain the term, leave those terms out altogether as links, and keep them as 'thesaurus terms', or as wikipedia terms or even as plain text. When searching for "alcoholic beverage" you'll find it in the thesaurus definitions of wine, beer and methanol. So what's the problem?</li> </ul> <p>it would immediately make wiktionary move up on web searches, help millions of users, cause more terms to be entered, and most importantly, a Wikisaurus can automatically be created from that information, so any benefits of the wikisaurus are preserved.<a href="https://en-wiktionary-org.translate.goog/wiki/User:Pashute?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="User:Pashute">Pashute</a> (<a href="https://en-wiktionary-org.translate.goog/wiki/User_talk:Pashute?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="User talk:Pashute">talk</a>) <a href="https://en-wiktionary-org.translate.goog/wiki/Wiktionary_talk:Thesaurus?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB#c-Pashute-2013-07-11T16:57:00.000Z-Inline_Wiktionary_thesaurus_(inside_terms)_vs._Wikisaurus" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">16:57, 11 July 2013 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Pashute-2013-07-11T16:57:00.000Z-Inline_Wiktionary_thesaurus_(inside_terms)_vs._Wikisaurus"><span id="ooui-php-8" class="ext-discussiontools-init-replybutton oo-ui-widget oo-ui-widget-enabled oo-ui-buttonElement oo-ui-buttonElement-frameless oo-ui-labelElement oo-ui-flaggedElement-progressive oo-ui-buttonWidget" data-ooui="{"_":"OO.ui.ButtonWidget","rel":["nofollow"],"framed":false,"label":"Reply","flags":["progressive"],"classes":["ext-discussiontools-init-replybutton"]}"><a role="button" tabindex="0" rel="nofollow" class="oo-ui-buttonElement-button"><span class="oo-ui-iconElement-icon oo-ui-iconElement-noIcon oo-ui-image-progressive"></span><span class="oo-ui-labelElement-label">Reply</span><span class="oo-ui-indicatorElement-indicator oo-ui-indicatorElement-noIndicator oo-ui-image-progressive"></span></a></span></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Pashute-2013-07-11T16:57:00.000Z-Inline_Wiktionary_thesaurus_(inside_terms)_vs._Wikisaurus"></span></p> <p><br></p> <dl> <dd> <span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Pashute-2013-07-14T10:10:00.000Z-Pashute-2013-07-11T16:57:00.000Z"></span>Dan noted that I misrepresented his discussion in my summary, that the vote is too preliminary, and that it would be preferable to discuss his claims one by one. </dd> </dl> <dl> <dd> The proposal here is to have a new 'Thesaurus' section in Wiktionary for each definition of each term.

Listing "fish", "amphibian", "reptile", and "bird" as coordinate terms in <a href="https://en-wiktionary-org.translate.goog/wiki/Thesaurus:mammal?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Thesaurus:mammal">WS:mammal</a> is fairly pointless, as they are already listed at <a href="https://en-wiktionary-org.translate.goog/wiki/Thesaurus:vertebrate?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Thesaurus:vertebrate">WS:vertebrate</a> (one click away from <a href="https://en-wiktionary-org.translate.goog/wiki/Thesaurus:mammal?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Thesaurus:mammal">WS:mammal</a>, in its "hypernyms" section), and as the practice leads to repetition of the five coordinate terms (including "mammal") on each term's page. The repetition gets much worse with larger lists of coordinate terms. Some more explanation follows.</p> <p>The section "coordinate terms" is occasionally used in the mainspace. "Coordinate terms" are those terms that are siblings in the hyponymy tree (or direct acyclic graph); they are on approximately the same level of detail or specificity and they share a near hypernym. Thus, "mammal" has "fish", "amphibian", "reptile", and "bird" as coordinate terms with respect to "vertebrate". The term "arthropod" is not a coordinate term of "mammal", as it is separated from it by the vertebrate-invertebrate division. However, "arthropod" can be seen as a coordinate term of "mammal", if the vertebrate-invertebrate distinction is ignored, and both are seen as hyponymic descendants of "animal" that have approximately the same level of specificity. --<a href="https://en-wiktionary-org.translate.goog/wiki/User:Dan_Polansky?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="User:Dan Polansky">Dan Polansky</a> (<a href="https://en-wiktionary-org.translate.goog/wiki/User_talk:Dan_Polansky?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="User talk:Dan Polansky">talk</a>) <a href="https://en-wiktionary-org.translate.goog/wiki/Wiktionary_talk:Thesaurus?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB#c-Dan_Polansky-2012-04-09T07:45:00.000Z-Coordinate_terms" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">07:45, 9 April 2012 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Dan_Polansky-2012-04-09T07:45:00.000Z-Coordinate_terms"><span id="ooui-php-14" class="ext-discussiontools-init-replybutton oo-ui-widget oo-ui-widget-enabled oo-ui-buttonElement oo-ui-buttonElement-frameless oo-ui-labelElement oo-ui-flaggedElement-progressive oo-ui-buttonWidget" data-ooui="{"_":"OO.ui.ButtonWidget","rel":["nofollow"],"framed":false,"label":"Reply","flags":["progressive"],"classes":["ext-discussiontools-init-replybutton"]}"><a role="button" tabindex="0" rel="nofollow" class="oo-ui-buttonElement-button"><span class="oo-ui-iconElement-icon oo-ui-iconElement-noIcon oo-ui-image-progressive"></span><span class="oo-ui-labelElement-label">Reply</span><span class="oo-ui-indicatorElement-indicator oo-ui-indicatorElement-noIndicator oo-ui-image-progressive"></span></a></span></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Dan_Polansky-2012-04-09T07:45:00.000Z-Coordinate_terms"></span></p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2 ext-discussiontools-init-section">  <h2 id="save_raw_data,_into_this_thesaurus?" data-mw-thread-id="h-save_raw_data,_into_this_thesaurus?-2013-07-07T13:13:00.000Z"><span id="save_raw_data.2C_into_this_thesaurus.3F"></span><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-save_raw_data,_into_this_thesaurus?-2013-07-07T13:13:00.000Z"></span>save raw data, into this thesaurus?<span data-mw-comment-end="h-save_raw_data,_into_this_thesaurus?-2013-07-07T13:13:00.000Z"></span></h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="https://en-wiktionary-org.translate.goog/w/index.php?title=Wiktionary_talk:Thesaurus&action=edit&section=5&_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Edit section: save raw data, into this thesaurus?"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span> <div class="ext-discussiontools-init-section-bar"> <div class="ext-discussiontools-init-section-metadata"> <span class="ext-discussiontools-init-section-metaitem ext-discussiontools-init-section-timestampLabel">Latest comment: <a href="https://en-wiktionary-org.translate.goog/wiki/Wiktionary_talk:Thesaurus?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB#c-Simon_Jäkle-2013-07-07T13:13:00.000Z-save_raw_data,_into_this_thesaurus?">11 years ago</a></span><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-section-metaitem ext-discussiontools-init-section-commentCountLabel">1 comment</span><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-section-metaitem ext-discussiontools-init-section-authorCountLabel">1 person in discussion</span> </div> <div class="ext-discussiontools-init-section-actions">  </div> </div> </div> <p><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Simon_Jäkle-2013-07-07T13:13:00.000Z-save_raw_data,_into_this_thesaurus?"></span>some "incomplete" "dirty" raw information is getting swiftly deducted on wikipedia.

I've seen other pages that do something similar but with text labels for each grouping, e.g.</p> <ul> <li><a href="https://en-wiktionary-org.translate.goog/wiki/Thesaurus:animal_sound?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Thesaurus:animal sound">Thesaurus:animal sound</a> (I added this as an example to the page)</li> <li><a href="https://en-wiktionary-org.translate.goog/wiki/Thesaurus:lover?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Thesaurus:lover">Thesaurus:lover</a></li> <li><a href="https://en-wiktionary-org.translate.goog/wiki/Thesaurus:sexual_partner?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Thesaurus:sexual partner">Thesaurus:sexual partner</a></li> </ul> <p>I personally like this style a lot better, both as a reader and an editor. It's easier to take in at a glance, and if I want to add a new term, I don't need to guess at what the different groupings are meant to represent. (Why are punch and cordial grouped with tea and coffee rather than with soda and juice? I'm guessing a confused editor added them in the wrong place, but maybe there's some deeper principle I'm not understanding.)</p> <p>Would anyone object to my refactoring entries like <a href="https://en-wiktionary-org.translate.goog/wiki/Thesaurus:beverage?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Thesaurus:beverage">Thesaurus:beverage</a> to use text labels for groupings? I'd like to also add a template for generating the labels. The three examples above each use subtly different formatting (indented, unindented, indented with colon). It would be nice to be able to define a consistent style in one place. I would lean toward the 'indented no colon' style (as in <a href="https://en-wiktionary-org.translate.goog/wiki/Thesaurus:animal_sound?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Thesaurus:animal sound">Thesaurus:animal sound</a>), but don't feel strongly about the particulars of the format so much as having some consistency. <a href="https://en-wiktionary-org.translate.goog/w/index.php?title=User:Colin_M&action=edit&redlink=1&_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" class="new" title="User:Colin M (page does not exist)">Colin M</a> (<a href="https://en-wiktionary-org.translate.goog/wiki/User_talk:Colin_M?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="User talk:Colin M">talk</a>) <a href="https://en-wiktionary-org.translate.goog/wiki/Wiktionary_talk:Thesaurus?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB#c-Colin_M-2021-03-17T20:50:00.000Z-Grouping_*nyms_-_text_labels_vs._generic_horizontal_rule_separators" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">20:50, 17 March 2021 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Colin_M-2021-03-17T20:50:00.000Z-Grouping_*nyms_-_text_labels_vs._generic_horizontal_rule_separators"><span id="ooui-php-24" class="ext-discussiontools-init-replybutton oo-ui-widget oo-ui-widget-enabled oo-ui-buttonElement oo-ui-buttonElement-frameless oo-ui-labelElement oo-ui-flaggedElement-progressive oo-ui-buttonWidget" data-ooui="{"_":"OO.ui.ButtonWidget","rel":["nofollow"],"framed":false,"label":"Reply","flags":["progressive"],"classes":["ext-discussiontools-init-replybutton"]}"><a role="button" tabindex="0" rel="nofollow" class="oo-ui-buttonElement-button"><span class="oo-ui-iconElement-icon oo-ui-iconElement-noIcon oo-ui-image-progressive"></span><span class="oo-ui-labelElement-label">Reply</span><span class="oo-ui-indicatorElement-indicator oo-ui-indicatorElement-noIndicator oo-ui-image-progressive"></span></a></span></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Colin_M-2021-03-17T20:50:00.000Z-Grouping_*nyms_-_text_labels_vs._generic_horizontal_rule_separators"></span></p> <dl> <dd> <span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Waldyrious-20230104234100-Colin_M-2021-03-17T20:50:00.000Z"></span>I agree that the labeled are both more intuitive and more useful. <a href="https://en-wiktionary-org.translate.goog/wiki/Thesaurus:bird?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Thesaurus:bird">Thesaurus:bird</a> is another example that uses labeled separators for grouping the hyponyms. </dd> <dd> In a similar note, I have <a href="https://en-wiktionary-org.translate.goog/wiki/Template_talk:ws_----?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Template talk:ws ----">suggested</a> a change of the <code style="white-space:pre-wrap">{{<a href="https://en-wiktionary-org.translate.goog/wiki/Template:ws_----?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB#top" title="Template:ws ----">ws ----</a>}}</code> template, to make it render as a horizontal rule (as I've experimented with <a class="external text" href="https://en-wiktionary-org.translate.goog/w/index.php?title=Thesaurus:name&oldid=70681302&_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB#Hyponyms">here</a>), which IMO would alleviate the issues described here (though an explicit label would still be preferable).

(Needs double check.)</li> <li>Amina Sack36 designed some neat templates and warned that thesauri are made by people who are not thinking out of the box, and that users may be looking for words related in ways that are not rigidly prespecified. 2008.</li> <li>Dan Polansky (me) did a lot of cleanup and expansion in 2008, and later, insisting on using all semantic relations and on the thesaurus being a cluster thesaurus, not having a dedicated page for each mainspace word but rather a page per word cluster.</li> <li>Daniel Carero did significant expansion later.</li> <li>Adam B. Morgan made a lot of expansion over multiple years.</li> </ul> <p>Would need a proper double checking to see whether the details are correct. <a
