Would like to send you a free review copy of the book Holly Lisle's Create A Language Clinic (http://shop.hollylisle.com/index.php?crn=206&rn=367&action=show_detail). Will check back. Holly Lisle


 * That won't be necessary. The authors of the language already have access to the book and probably have read it, if it's worth the time. I don't think I'm about to design any languages myself in the near future. Thank you for the offer. --fasten 18:15, 16 June 2006 (UTC)

What is this language about ? I enjoyed reading some of your texts, but what does this have to do with this page ? (I you wish we could talk in German :-) -- 212.144.199.204 22:58, 23 March 2006 (UTC)


 * If there was an extensive common set of metaphors with a sometimes non-trivial and systematic interpretation in many books, movies, proverbs and in history. Would you consider this a language worth documenting (even if, apparently, a larger group of people was aware of it but didn't seem to consider it worth documenting anywhere)? --fasten 18:01, 24 March 2006 (UTC)

Hi,

I was read that you let a message to Pedro Aguiar because he didn't categorize his articles. So, I wanted to ask you if a language can be categorized on two places at time. I was see Bleghish into category conlangs and into category Bleghish, too (last category is a subcategory of conlangs). What is the right categorization? To include same article in both categories or only in its specific category? Do you know it? Conlanger · talk ☏ 10:08, 16 January 2007 (UTC)


 * I have read that you sent a message to .... can be categorized in two places at a time. I have put Bleghish into the category conlangs and into the category Bleghish, too. ...
 * You can put an article into several categories and, of course, these categories can also form hierarchies. In the case of Bleghish I would say it clearly belongs into the category conlangs, because it is the main article of a constructed language, and it clearly belongs into the category Bleghish, because it is an article about Bleghish that does not belong into a sub-category of Bleghish. --fasten 10:30, 16 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Thanks for your speedy answer and corrections. Regarding Bleghish, I didn't put it into two categories, but backwards, sorry for my poor English. When I have seen it into two categories, I thought it was wrong, because in cawiki an article can be into more than one category, but never into a sub-category. I hope you'll understand me.

 * In Wikipedia putting articles into categories and sub-categories thereof is merely not recommended but it is accepted that there may be valid reasons to do so. As I said, I think the main article of conlang has a valid reason to be in both categories, which is, of course, not meant to imply that is has to be. --fasten 12:51, 16 January 2007 (UTC)

uncategorized articles
I've wanted to categorize all uncategorized articles. And I found a lot of your articles without category. At first time, I wanted to give to them any category and I found that I believed it was a good category for all of them: Category:Pilingual Dictionary. But now, I'm not sure that is right. I have made a list with the 51 modified articles where I've added this category. If I dammaged your project, please, keep my apologies. If it is like this, please let me undo my wrong changes. Conlanger · talk ☏ 23:26, 16 January 2007 (UTC)
 * No, actually that was very appropriate. Thank you very much for your contribution. You've added some articles that belonged into the category "Pi:", though. You can recognize the difference easily because all articles that belong into the dictionary have the prefix "Pi:d/". --fasten 13:57, 17 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Yes, later, I thought anything like this, but the first words were German and I got confusion (d can be able to deutsch).
 * I watched your changes at Rencent Changes... Conlanger · talk ☏ 14:53, 17 January 2007 (UTC)
 * ... Yes, later I imagined something like this .... and I got confused (d could mean deutsch) ...
 * Even if d would mean deutsch here, how does that affect your hypothesis that all pages belonged into the category "Category:Pilingual Dictionary"? --fasten 15:11, 17 January 2007 (UTC)
 * First I thought: Pi:d/ is for dictionary, but later when I read German words I thoght that could mean deutsch, and I prefeer to stop my action, before to do anything wrong. Conlanger · talk ☏ 15:37, 17 January 2007 (UTC)

fiction wiki
Hi. I'm Yunzhong, from the Novelas/fiction wiki. Our wiki accepts nearly all kinds of fiction content. If you have works on this site that would do better incorporated in Novelas, please reply at my user page there. If you would like to contribute, then by all means please do. Thank you.

Conworlding
Hi. I'm Yunzhong Hou. I've launched a brand-new conworld that attempts to use a new set of rights based on the Creative Commons License and 'declares void' the GNU license, so that (supposedly) whatever you submit within that project is safer. There are as of yet no rules regarding now it must develop, so you have the opportunity to give it a sense of direction to begin with as well as incorporate the content from any conworlds you might have already created. I'm trying to get others involved in this project as well. Join, and together we can have a new, better beginning.

It's at this page, the new license is here. You can leave me messages here.

Cheers,

Yunzhong Hou 03:25, 10 February 2008 (UTC)


 * Thanks, but I'm not going to contribute to conlang.wikia.com outside the "Pi:" namespace. --fasten 11:29, 10 February 2008 (UTC)

Conworlding
Due to recent complaints that the license here is too complicated, I've created a short summary of it here. Hope this clarifies problems.

Although Idea hasn't launched yet, we are making a list of all people who might be interested in contributing to the project. If there are at least 5, Central might consider making a site just for us, so if you want to conworld, please add your signature here. Also, we might be assigning development leadership positions to those who express interest. Development leaders will be in charge of everything related to their assigned aspect of conworlding, ie. government, economy, geography, etc.

Also, considering Idea's nascent status, voting discussion is taking place on several critical issues. Please visit this page to voice your opinion on the matters.

For those who are wondering, you don't need to get permission from anyone to join in. It's an all-new project I initiated, and everyone is allowed to participate freely in a democratic environment. Even if you are currently working on another project, I strongly encourage you to sign up because you might find it interesting later on.

Cheers,

Yunzhong Hou 15:07, 10 February 2008 (UTC)
