#Wish list
Wish list allows users to add words and expressions to a list and other users can fulfill the wishes by adding sentences with these words and expressions.
The wish list feature than consists of three new views/pages: "Add to wish list", "Browse wish list", and "Wish: xxx in language by user username". "Add to wish list" is a page where users can submit new wishes and "Browse wish list" is a page where users can browse the wishes the other users have submited. "Wish: xxx in language by user username" is a page for each individual wish where the orginal submiter of the wish can modify the wish, other users can fulfil the wish, and all the users can discuss about the wish. At the upper part of all of these pages there are two tabs/links: "Add to wish list" and "Browse wish list" for easy access from page to page.''
##New page: "Add to wish list"
Users can access this page either from the main menu under "Contribute" --> "Add a new wish" or from search results' pages as described in the first message.
###Fields on "Add to wish list" page:
- The wished word or expression (Mandatory, text field. Text under the field: "Type in the word or expression of which you would like to get an example sentence." If the user access this page through search results page, the search string "xxx" is automatically displayed in this field, so that you don't need to type it again.)
- Context or additional information (Optional, text box. Text under the box: "You can type here further information about the word or expression". For example, if the wished word was "hieroglyphic", the user can write in this box: "In sense of incomprehensible writing.")
- Number of desired example sentences. (Mandatory, number field, default value 5. Requires a number between 1 and 50. User A defines here how many example sentences they would like to have before the status of the wish is changed to "fulfilled".)
###Drop-down menus on this page:
- This wish is about *language*. If the user access this page through search results page, the same language as in their search is automatically selected from this drop-down menu.
###Buttons on this page:
- Submit your wish (When the user clicks on the button, the wish is saved and a confirmation message about successful submit is displayed in upper part of the page.)
###Duplicate handling
In this case duplicate means that "The wished word or expressions" match, because you can't really know what people type in the "Context or additional information". There could be a dialogue box saying "There is already wish for *the wished word or expression* in context of *context or additional information*. If this is the same wish you are about to add, you can give thumbs up for this existing wish instead and then click on "Cancel". If this wish is not in the same sense your wish is about, please save your new wish." If there are more than one existing wish with the same word/expression, they are all listed on this dialogue window with thumbs up icon next to each wish. At the bottom of the dialogue window two buttons "Save my wish" and "Cancel".
When user submits a new wish, Tatoeba functions similarly as when you submit a comment: the page is reloaded and at the top of the page there is a message "You wish has been saved. View your wish here." (with link to an individual wish page of the wish they just submited).
Submitting new wishes are counted in as new contributions of the user. The submitted wishes are shown in the users Sentence logs (that should actually be renamed in the menu as "Contributions log" because it leads to page "Logs of *user*'s contributions", not to a sentence log, eg. http://tatoeba.org/fin/contributions/of_user/Silja).
##New page: "Browse wish list"
This is the page where users can browse the wishes other users have submitted. There is a list of all submitted wishes with links to individual "Wish" pages ("Wish: xxx in *language* by user *username*"). Users can access this page from the main menu under "Contribute" --> "Fulfil a wish".
###Columns in the "Browse wish list"
- Green arrow (icon, same as next to each translation of a sentence)] (Link to the individual "Wish" page of the wish ("Wish: xxx in *language* by user *username*"), see more in my next message)
- Wish (text, the wished word or expression)
- Language (icon, language flag)
- Fulfill this wish (A link, opens a "Add new sentences" page with text "Fulfilling wish xxx", "The wished word or expression", and possible "Context or additional information" above the "sentence" text field and link "return to wish list" below the text field. The sentences that are added from this "add new sentences" page are linked to the wish and are displayed in the "Wish" page of this individual wish, see below. Adding the desired number of new sentences (Defined by User A in "Number of example sentences") from this page changes the status of the wish to "fulfilled".)
- Submitted by (user name and link to their profile)
- Status (Fulfilled, Not fullfilled)
- Thumbs up icon + number of given thumbs up (For other users to "like" the wish and express that they also want this wish to be fulfiled. When other users than User A click on this icon, the number of thumbs up increases. Second click by the same user decreases the number.)
The columns are sorted by date and time of adding the wish (newest first).

These are the individual pages for each submited wish, where the details of the wish are displayed together with the sentences that are added from its "fulfil this wish" link and comments on the wish.

The sentences that are added from this "add new sentences" page are linked to the wish and are displayed in the "Wish" page of this individual wish.
