The Photographic dictionary is a personal pet project originally started as an illustrated dictionary on Giraffian. It was designed as a quick reference, born out of a frustration for finding what you want on Wikipedia without having to wade through very verbose pages, but with the alternative goal of being more informative than a plain text dictionary.

The content on this site is tailored to appeal to a very wide audience, in particular children and people who speak English as a second language. As such, the language on this site tends to be very simple. This is the reason you cannot edit entries on this site directly without going through moderation. If you want to edit an entry, click on the one you are interested in and hit the pencil icon to edit it. You can also use this form to make comments, e.g. suggesting a different category a word should be in.

If you are interested in moderating the site or editing content directly, please get in touch.
