Forgive my ignorance, but how does one post words in a non-English alphabet on a wiki? Thank you.

The only way I know is to copy and paste from a Word document. Is there an easier way?

You can't just paste them onto the wiki?

I can, but it would be much easier and faster to be able to just type them in. So does anyone know of a way to do this?

You would need a keyboard that lets you type those characters then. I don't quite understand what you mean, care to give an example?

I am writing an article in English, but would like to give the etymology of a word using the Greek alphabet.

Do it the same way you would do on a word processor? I do not know how to help you.

It's OS specific. For windows there's muti-lingual settings somewhere in the control panel. You can configure it to have a button on your task bar to switch your keyboard between latin and other alphabets.

I fucking HATE Wikia. You know why? Because the whole fucking site is overrun by FLAGGOTS!!
What is a flaggot? Well, here are a few definitions from Urban Dictionary:
1. Person who flags postings as inappropriate on various online forums, despite the fact that said postings do not violate the forum's terms of use; person who would rather censor an opposing viewpoint than have to present his/her own case convincingly.
2. Those who flag because they can't stand honest competition.Those who deem it their divine right to protect the world from anything but their point of view.
While such descriptions are (barely) adequate, they do not convey the utterly contemptible nature of the homegrown Wikia flaggot. Simply stated, such individuals are the writhing, maggot-infested sewage at the bottom of the internet cesspool. They are worse than the EDfag, the Skiddie and the TCfag put together.
How do these shit-holes operate on Wikia? Well, here's a basic outline:
It starts out when some reeking asshole gets pwnt in a trivial argument on Wikia's Compaints forum. Being too much of a butthurt crybaby to admit their obvious defeat, they create a small army of sock-puppets to take revenge. They then start hanging around their victim's wikisite, flagging literally every page as inappropriate, regardless of whether or not it actually violates policy. As the false complaints pile up, the sysopsfigure "better safe than sorry" and delete the ENTIRE FUCKING SITE without further investigation. The fastest way to get a wiki taken down is to claim it hosts CP. The mere accusation is enough to get you shitlisted. This kind of shit is rampant all over Wikia: innocent people are frequently banned over spurious, unproven reports. The worst part is that Wikia's MENTALLY DEFECTIVE admins don't even bother checking the facts. They're so fucking trigger-happy they just delete anything flagged as CP, even if it's completely harmless. Shit, they'll even ban you just on the suspicion of posting CP. And if they can't get you for so-called prohibited content, they'll LIE THROUGH THEIR TEETH and brand you a convicted pedophile. As far as I'm concerned, these CUNTS are the lowest form of SHIT on the face of this planet; every last one of them should be rounded up and BUTTFUCKED with a rusty chainsaw.
IMPORTANCE NOTICE FOR ALL WIKIA FLAGGOTS: Sorry - don't like what you see? Then STFU and GTFO. There; problem solved for everyone, you fucking inbreeds.

It's a dead giveaway. Besides that, I could swear I've seen that post somewhere before.

Probably. The structure of your post gave it away, as well. Long post, line breaks up the wazoo, strongly opinionated, loosely EDesque vocabulary, and all of it finished off by a miniature wall o' text followed up by a tl;dr summarization.

Yeah, but I usually post that kind of textwall under Anonymous. AsThe Teh Master, I only ever post one or two lines. If someone else copied the text and posted it minus the formatting, would you still think it was me?

Yeah, that's my standard TL;DR rant; I post it all over the web, just altering key words and phrases to suit the subject.

Meh. I don't have many social skills.

Not bad, Jacko. Trying to lose weight so I can fit back into my old stretch jeans.
