Description

Not sure how possible this is, considering the source. but noun genders are very important in certain languages (e.g. German).

Would it be possible to somehow extract and display them?

Example:
https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Bedienung#German

It seems that the only indication of the gender of this noun is the the category link [German feminine nouns]. Perhaps looking for masculine, feminine or neuter category links would be sufficient
