User:-sche/basic English
It has sometimes been said that Wiktionary's coverage of basic words is lacking. I have overhauled or checked (some were already mostly overhauled by other people) the common, important words on this list that have been struck through, so that they are covered in as much or more detail in Wiktionary as/than in other major dictionaries. For methodology or to suggest/request words, see talk page.
