I understand WP:NOT a dictionary, but I think it makes more sense to have this so people who are less savvy than experienced wikipedians can easily find the interwiki to wiktionary. -Oreo Priest 05:25, 23 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

For anyone in >=2023 confused by this comment, and how it could have been created as long ago as 2007 -- it pertains to when this page was a stub for the ordinary word "svelte", pointing to wikitionary. Gwideman (talk) 01:40, 22 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Conduitry? Vercel?[edit]

"Key early contributors became involved with Conduitry joining with the release of Svelte 1, Tan Li Hau joining in 2019, and Ben McCann joining in 2020. Rich Harris and Simon Holthausen joined Vercel to work on Svelte fulltime in 2022"

Maybe tell us a little more about what Svelte is, in what domain of human endeavor, before telling us what it's not.

After the first sentence, we don't know whether it might perhaps be a kit of chrome hardware with instructions for creating elaborate front grilles for automobiles. If we have guessed that it's something to do with sofware, then is if for embedded appliance controllers? Desktop applications? Ad hoc data analysis and visualization environment? Web applications?

And whenever telling what the thing is not X, please first introduce the landscape of things that are X, before telling that the current thing is not X. Gwideman (talk) 01:50, 22 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
