I'm going to write a dictionary of about 30.000 words and a bibliography for it with about 1.000 works. However I'm not sure about the layout.

How would /lit/ prefer its dictionary + bibliography?

Additional info: the language is basically dead, so the main focus will be to translate from it, not to it. (though a reverse index might be useful)

Contribute to Wiktionary.

Nah, I already collected all the sources and described many of them and found which are just cheap copies of older ones.

That would mean that I invest thousands of hours into unquotable work. No. Better I first write a quotable book and then someone uses it for Wiktionary. Also, the special language I am working on is highly discussed (by which I mean dramatically uncertain) and you really gotta lay a good basis for it.

no joke that actually looks doable

i have more pages to get through for my own stack and seeing your image brings a wash of relief.

Image is just the DWB, which took 100 years to write. My book/s will be far less.
