title: Dictionary maintainers

Adopt a dictionary!

There's a lot you can do with an existing FreeDict dictionary. Most of them lack one feature or another (most often quite a few!). You can start by simply cleaning incorrect entries, add grammatical information or extend translations. Every little improvement helps!

Dictionaries can be cleaned in student projects as well -- if you are an academic teacher who wants to turn an imperfect dictionary into, say, a term assignment, please get in touch with us on the mailing list.

You can also have a look at the To-Do list. Don't worry, there are lots of simpler jobs you could do, and some of those enumerated here may already be done. But this list can be inspiring to some.

Dictionary maintainers

Dictionary maintainers are the great persons behind a dictionary who take care of all the things you can do with a dictionary: extending it, improving it, promoting it and correcting it. You can have a look at the list of maintainers to find a dictionary that you could potentially adopt. Don't hesitate to contact us on the mailing list, and ask us, some maintainers might be not active anymore.
