I don't really use it often as a user nor i my projects to have a definite opinion. There is some pairs of words (about 5K) in Sino-Vietnamese that came with their chu nom writing which was very helpful to one of project. Otherwise I think it lacks structure and can't be harvested automatically easily (I don't think Wikidata integrate it all, and that website is a non-starter for me). Also every language is structured differently so Wiktionary can hardly be commented as a whole.
- thombles 5y ago> Otherwise I think it lacks structure and can't be harvested automatically easily Indeed, it depends on the language and your goals - I had a very high success rate plucking out Russian grammatical tables from English Wiktionary with a few hours of scripting the data cleaning (https://github.com/thombles/declensions https://github.com/thombles/declensions). I have a theory that you could get better results using an offline archive of the page sources but haven't tried this yet.
- Someone 5y agohttps://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Help:FAQ https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Help:FAQ: Q: Is it possible to download Wiktionary? A: Yes. https://dumps.wikimedia.org/enwiktionary/ https://dumps.wikimedia.org/enwiktionary/ should have the latest copy of the main namespace. The cleanest navigation page is https://dumps.wikimedia.org/ https://dumps.wikimedia.org/. Just download a -articles.xml.bz2 file and some software to read it (for nix, for Windows). Q: Can I use data from Wiktionary in my program? A: As long as you meet the conditions of the GNU Free Documentation License or Creative Commons Attribution/Share-Alike License, certainly. Latest dump for English is from September 1. I wouldn’t know whether it has all the data or how easy it is to parse it.
