Page deletion
Ah my bad, I apologise for it, It just looked in the description so well that I thought it was a real language someone had added. Of course I won't delete it then and I would have retrieved it even if you hadnt been able to get it back.

My apologies

Branched conlang
Congratulations for your language three. I like the idea of a so branched conlanging.

Askadia 09:15, September 25, 2011 (UTC)

Thanks, I hope it makes the project seem more realistic and as well as my conworlds project.

Case descriptions
Hi there!

My name is Waahlis, and what a lovely language you've got, Kihāmmic, (always start a request with a compliment :) ) . I had a wonder, if I could slightly alter and copy Your case descriptions? They seem to fit rather well into my lang, but som changes would need to be made. I sincerely like your languages though!

Cheers! Waahlis 17:49, November 21, 2011 (UTC)

Thanks a lot, yeah, be my guest. Let me know how things go!

pá mamûnám ontā́ bán 19:07, November 21, 2011 (UTC)

Thanks a lot, that'll save time! Keep on conlanging!

Categories
Hi, MOB, I have a question; since I actually prefer conlanging before "wiki"-ing, I'd be very glad if you could tell me how you created categories?

kyām dēkar 17:08, November 23, 2011 (UTC)

You can either scroll down to the bottom of the page and use "+ Add category" then type in whatever category you want, old or new. You can also go into "Edit" then in "Visual" mode enter what you want in the "Categories" bit. pá mamûnám ontā́ bán 17:12, November 23, 2011 (UTC)

Actually, I meant how you created category pages? I may be a bit daft, but that daft. kyām dēkar 07:00, November 24, 2011 (UTC)

Well I always added the categories before I actually created them, but to create and add material to them you just treat them as a normal page. So "Create" or "Add to this page". Hope that helps. pá mamûnám ontā́ bán 08:42, November 24, 2011 (UTC)

Another problem
Hi again MOB, how did you fix those links from your cases, into Kihā́mmic? Whenever I try to direct the link to specific cases, it misinterprets the link and goes elsewhere! How did you do it?

kyām dēkar 13:27, November 27, 2011 (UTC)

I'm not sure what you mean do you mean directing to a specific section of another page? This is the code for Kihā́mmic redirecting to nominative: "Panlaffic cases#Nominative case|Nominative". Just add double brackets around it. I hope that's what you meant! pá mamûnám ontā́ bán 13:57, November 27, 2011 (UTC)

Thanks, that's exactly what I meant, however I wrote in code - and it didn't work, until I discovered I missed a capital letter - but no matter what I do, It jumps to the "Accusative" section, instead of the "Absolutive". Got an idea? Thanks by the way for the help with the catogories. kyām dēkar 14:04, November 27, 2011 (UTC)

Don't bother, it was all my browsers fault... Thanks nevertheless! kyām dēkar 14:19, November 27, 2011 (UTC)

Ah, okay then, any time. pá mamûnám ontā́ bán 14:46, November 27, 2011 (UTC)

Hi again!
Hi again, MOB! I don't really remembering asking you whether I could call you that... Nevertheless, I just wondered how you managed to direct for example "Kihā́mmic/Basic phrases" to Kihā́mmic on the top of the page.You got to ask someone, and you've been friendly enough...!

Cheers! kyām dēkar 21:35, December 8, 2011 (UTC)

Hi, well it's fine by me, it is a bit of a longer username. All I did was create the page with the name "Kihā́mmic/Basic phrases" and it give a link back to "Kihā́mmic" at the top of the page. pá mamûnám ontā́ bán 22:21, December 8, 2011 (UTC)

A normal link? Well, perfect then. Are you all sure on tha'? I'll give it a try, and if it doesn't work, I'll just settle... Thanks as always! kyām dēkar 16:19, December 9, 2011 (UTC)

Tables
Hi MOB, would you be terribly bothered and heart-broken should I borrow your "Basic Phrases"? It would be a shame...

By the way, you really need to use some other tables than those grey ones you're using nowadays!

Thanks in advance! kyām dēkar 14:14, December 18, 2011 (UTC)

I wouldn't mind at all. Which grey ones? I've only used grey ones here haven't I? pá mamûnám ontā́ bán 14:40, December 18, 2011 (UTC)

Reconstruction
Hi there MOB!

Wouldn't it be just lovely if someone could get this wiki up and going again? I mean, our Front page isn't exactly invitational? We've got tonnes of stubs and dead end links! The administrator doesn't seem to be present at all! Do you have any clue what we could do? That is, if you agree with me. kyām dēkar 09:39, January 4, 2012 (UTC)

I do think that the admin could be done better and the featured articles and that kind of thing doesn't seem to have been updated for ages. Having said that I don't think I could do a better job. pá mamûnám ontā́ bán 17:32, January 4, 2012 (UTC)

Nor could I, of course, but have you got any ideas what could be done? And how? It would be much more fun should the wiki get a face-lift? kyām dēkar 18:00, January 4, 2012 (UTC)

I don't know if the wiki has enough regular users to sustain a revamp unfortunately. pá mamûnám ontā́ bán 20:39, January 7, 2012 (UTC)

Favour
Hi MOB, could I ask a favour of you? - I have a problem regarding flavour!

At my user page there are two tables, called "Aspect" and "Person". They are both used to show conjugation, but I can't decide which one's the most convenient one? I'd appreciate your opinion!

P.S. Where did you make that script for your languages? Lookes rather funny! D.S. kyām dēkar 15:55, January 7, 2012 (UTC)

I think I'd prefer the "Person" table but it might be more convenient to use the narrower "Aspect" table.

I drew them by hand first, then used Paint to create a computer font style of the handwritten script. pá mamûnám ontā́ bán 20:37, January 7, 2012 (UTC)

Verb table
Thanks! You're of course welcome to use it, should you find it easier. And yes - you should do something about your extreme amount of conjugation tables... kyām dēkar 18:59, January 31, 2012 (UTC)

Templates
I've been considering to edit some of the templates. Do you think we ought to change their appearance? And if so, create new template pages? Waahlis kyām dēkar 09:52, March 18, 2012 (UTC)

If it improves the aesthetic of the page then definitely. Perhaps we could also add a list of the top ten most edited pages or something too? pá mamûnám ontā́ bán 10:35, March 18, 2012 (UTC)

Sure, if you think your able to. Do you mean such listlike the ones in the "Wiki activity"? Waahlis kyām dēkar 10:44, March 18, 2012 (UTC)

Kind of, but just a smaller version to fit on the main page. If it requires a lot of coding I may not be able to though. pá mamûnám ontā́ bán 10:51, March 18, 2012 (UTC)

Featuring
Hi again MOB, I saw your "nominee" message on the featuring page and realised that we truly need some sort of community messages on the front page? Waahlis kyām dēkar 13:02, March 18, 2012 (UTC)

I'll add something to the current main page. pá mamûnám ontā́ bán 13:16, March 18, 2012 (UTC)

Done!! pá mamûnám ontā́ bán 13:23, March 18, 2012 (UTC)

Should we remove the possibility to Nominate your own language? Or not? kyām dēkar 17:31, March 18, 2012 (UTC)

Maybe not to nominate but voting for your own conlang is already forbidden. What do you think? pá mamûnám ontā́ bán 18:01, March 18, 2012 (UTC)

I suppose there'd be no activity at all, should one not be able to nominate your own language. Very well... kyām dēkar 18:04, March 18, 2012 (UTC)

It's not the best system but I agree there might not be any (or very few) nominations if it were forbidden. pá mamûnám ontā́ bán 18:12, March 18, 2012 (UTC)
