I think there's another thing you should add to the dictionary, as many New Scratchers and Scratchers alike don't seem to understand it.
Kumquat - A fruit that is now commonly referenced in signatures due to Cheddargirl's signature not working in 2.0 and her resorting to referencing kumquats instead.

Sadly, my forum signature was eaten by an evil kumquat.

That's a good idea! I was very confused at first and I needed to search through forum posts to find out what a kumquat was and why it had any significance. I think this would be a useful addition to the dictionary.

Good point! I agree!

You might want to add the following into the dictionary:

FTFY - A short form of saying “Fixed that for you.”

This might be helpful. I just encountered it myself and didn't know what it meant until right now.

Alright, thanks! I'll add that!

You might want to mention that the scratch team is often abbreviated to ST.

Tips & Advice
Here are some other tips for roaming Scratch.

1. For foreign language subforums, it is advised for only native speakers to respond there. Please don't use Google Translate or test your foreign class skills, as you may not sufficiently respond/say something wrong.
2. Try not to publicly list people who have done a wrong - it's considered Naming & Shaming, which is not allowed on Scratch.
3. Please don't make a topic in the Questions about Scratch where people just post questions and you answer them - the Questions forum is designed for people to ask freely.
4. THANK YOU FOR READING THIS! Keep reading stickies if you're new, as it may help in understanding and being a helpful part of the Scratch Community.

I'm guessing this is a revised version of the original post is it? I'm talking about the three posts above this one, but I decided to quote this one because it is the shortest and wouldn't make the post too big.

Oh, now I'm planning on expanding this topic to cover different areas. If you go to the original post, you could click to reach these different areas (i.e. the post you just quoted), and even click to go back!

Oh, that's awesome! I like that because it makes it easier for people to access certain parts of this directly without having to look through parts they don't need to look through at that time. The back button can also be useful if they want to find two or more separate and unrelated pieces of information.

Exactly! Also, it's easier to add more departments which I plan on doing in the future.

Cool! Any chance of letting me know when you make one so I can have a look?

When I do, I'll create a new post so you'll automatically be notified, similar to when I created the other posts.

Could you explain what “tl;dr” means inside of the dictionary? I don't know and I've been seeing it around the forums a lot recently.

I'll be adding it, but TL;DR means Too Long; Didn't Read. It's usage is to summarize text like below, sometimes:

(Long text) … 1+1=2.

TL;DR: 1+1=2

Or, it could be a response like below:

(Long Text)

TL;DR. ^^^
