The Online Slang Dictionary is now a wiki

Hello slang fans!

For a couple of months, logged-in users have been able to submit new slang words to the dictionary via the website. I'm happy to announce a new feature: logged-in users can now edit existing definitions. Look for the "Edit this definition" links.

Additional tweaks are forthcoming, such as the ability to view the edit history of a term.

If you have any feedback, stop by the blog and leave a comment.

Hello slang fans!

I've recently added 5 sets of slang updates:

I made some tweaks to the root words feature.

  • If a slang term contains "the" or "a", the list of words containing those roots aren't shown. (They made the web pages take longer to download.) When I write the code to make those lists more efficient, I'll restore them.
  • Plural words are now de-pluralized.

If you have any feedback, come by the blog and leave a comment.
