<div>Hi!<br>Please remember to give your pages specific names. E.g. [[Senjecan lexicon roots a-ð]] rather than just [[Lexicon roots a-ð]]; [[Senjecan colors]] rather than [[Colors]], etc. That first example may not be too much of a problem, but a title like [[Colors]] should be expected to have a more generic view.

Hi!<br />
<br />
I did the page name moves Muke suggested and also deleted those pages you had blanked.<br />
If you want to delete a page just ask an admin (like me [[User:Melroch|BPJ]]) on his (I think all admins are male!) talk page. If you just want to rename a page use the 'move' tab at the top of each page, which IIRC is available to non-admins too, or ask an admin about that too. It is not good to have blank pages hanging around! [[User:Melroch|BPJ]] 02:11, 19 February 2008 (PST)<br />

==Hello from IB!==<br />
Dear Fr. C, <br />
Hello again. I'm the caretaker of Greece over at the Ill Bethisad project. I made an account here to contact the caretaker of Libya, but when I saw your account pop up on this site's edit history, I had to say something. Would you ever consider coming back to IB? Now that I have a degree in international affairs and modern Greek, I know how to actually ''write'' about politics and the economy and no longer treat this as some sort of online game of Risk. I have a dozens of ideas I want to implement for Greece and proposals for the Eastern Mediterranean region, so I'd be quite happy to have a partner in this part of the IBosphere. Our own frathwiki is still the same, but not many of us have a Facebook group that allows for instant communication instead of the snail mail that the Yahoo Group has become. If you have an account, this is the link: https://www.facebook.com/groups/10758889087/<br />
I look forward to potentially hearing from you again,<br />
[[User:Misterxeight|Misterxeight]] ([[User talk:Misterxeight|talk]]) 12:59, 21 March 2017 (PDT)<br />
<br />
Dear Father, <br />
I did send an email to your account. In case I didn't transcribe the address correctly, I'm more than happy to send it again. I did include personal stuff like my facebook account name and other members' email addresses, so I wasn't really comfortably copying-and-pasting it here. I hope that your Holy Week is going well: I don't think our weekly celebrations are quite the same, but for us, today is the day that we receive holy unction. It's one of my favorites this week.<br />

Ok, thats fine but why did you delete my con-lang from the list?<br />
<br />
== Combined regional timelines ==<br />
<br />
Hi BPJ,<br />
<br />
I'd like to create an article that contains a timeline for multiple regions at once, where the user can select which regions to display (similar to collapsible tables on Wikipedia, but based on {{Type|<nowiki><li></nowiki>}} tags). The events should be listed in chronological order, so each event must probably be treated as an individual entity within a {{Type|<nowiki><div></nowiki>}} tag whose class/id value is changed). I have a fairly good idea how to approach this; only I have little experience with both wiki templates and JavaScript (which I suspect might be necessary). Maybe you as the template expert of FW could help me with this?<br />
<br />
<br />
Basically, my idea is as follows:<br />
<br />
'''Timeline article'''<br />
<br />
<pre><nowiki><br />
{{Timeline|SPHERE}}<br />
{{Event|region1|103|King of Region 1 dies.}}<br />
{{Event|region2|110|Rebellion in Region 2.}}<br />
</div><br />
</nowiki></pre><br />
<br />
(Note that "SPHERE" should not actually appear in the wikitext, but represents a variable containing the sphere(s) that the user wants to see. This is what must be changed dynamically.)<br />
<br />
'''Template:Timeline'''<br />
<br />
<pre><nowiki><br />
<div class="timeline" id="{{{1}}}"><br />
</nowiki></pre><br />
<br />
'''Template:Event'''<br />
<br />
<pre><nowiki><br />
<span class={{{1}}}><br />
* {{{2}}} AD: {{{3}}}</span><br />
</nowiki></pre><br />
<br />
'''Common.css'''<br />
<br />
<pre><nowiki><br />
.timeline li {display:none;}<br />
#region1 .region1 {display:inline;}<br />
#region2 .region2 {display:inline;}<br />
</nowiki></pre><br />
<br />
With this (I think) I'd only need a way to set the {{Type|SPHERE}} variable in '''Template:Timeline''' to either {{Type|"region1"}} or {{Type|"region2"}} dynamically, based on user choice. The output should then look like so:<br />
<br />
<br />
{{Type|<nowiki>SPHERE="region1"</nowiki>}}<br />
<br />
* 103 AD: King of Region 1 dies.<br />
<br />
<br />
{{Type|<nowiki>SPHERE="region2"</nowiki>}}<br />
<br />
* 110 AD: Rebellion in Region 2.<br />
<br />
<br />
{{Type|<nowiki>SPHERE="region1 region2"</nowiki>}}<br />
<br />
* 103 AD: King of Region 1 dies.<br />
* 110 AD: Rebellion in Region 2.<br />

===Answer===<br />
:I'm afraid you're out of luck since JS can't be included in wiki pages.<br />
:You'd need to find/write a MediaWiki extension which does what you want and persuade Muke to install it -- which latter would be the easy part. Go to [http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Category:Extensions] and look for collapsible <s>table</s> list extensions! [[User:Melroch|BPJ]] 10:33, 20 July 2008 (UTC)<br />
<br />
: You may look at [http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:NavFrame] and see if you have the skill to modify it to get what you want. I don't, being a JS moron.<br />
:(Turns out there is room for many human-like languages in my brain but only one slot for programming languages, and that is already filled by Perl! :-)[[User:Melroch|BPJ]] 10:41, 20 July 2008 (UTC)<br />
<br />
== Category cleanup ==<br />
<br />
I've been sorting some of the bulk at Category:Conlangs - not by making judgements, but quite a few articles have redundant multi-categorization (typically two or three of cat:Conlangs, cat:A priori conlangs, cat:A posteriori conlangs, cat:IE conlangs, cat:Romance conlangs). I noticed there are a number of articles where you've ''added'' the top-level category. What's up with that? --[[User:Tropylium|<span class="IPA">Trɔpʏliʊm</span>]] • [[User talk:Tropylium|blah]] 09:11, 24 June 2009 (UTC)<br />
<br />
: No particular reason. Actually I see no evil in cross-categorization if it helps people find what they are looking for/something interesting. It does very little in terms of database size if that's what worries you.<br />
::I think of it as general cleanup. If all the hundreds of conlangs on the site were lump'd into the same category, it would not be "categorization" at all (since after all, conlangs are the ''main'' interest here!) That's what the [[List of conlangs]] is for, isn't it?<br />
::Also, given that we do have some subcategorization, I don't think "downwards" cross-categorization is helpful. If an article is in [[:Category:Indo-European conlangs]], I expect it ''not'' to be a Romance, Germanic or Slavic conlang. Finding "negativly defined" groups would be difficult if everything were also there in addition to the subcategories.<br />
:Perhaps you're right that one should not tag pages with several categories which one expects to be sub-/supercategories of eachother, but then one should probably also make sure that that expectation is true; e.g. [[:Category: Romance conlangs]] is '''not''' ATM a subcategory of [[:Category: Conlangs]] which it probably should be!<br />
::It's found under [[:Category:Indo-European conlangs]] which in turn is under [[:Category:A posteriori conlangs]]. That starts to gather some density, but we're still not quite at the point of having things like [[:Category:Para-Gallo-Iberian conlangs with Basque influence]].<br />
:IMHO one category to many on a page is probably a lesser evil than something not being found because it is assigned only to a category which is not properly subcategorized. After all the purpose of categories is to help people find stuff, not to create a taxonomy. (I should add that I'm wary of taxonomies, since in most cases (biological taxonomy obviously being an exception!) several taxonomies are equally possible and each reveals something about the matter classified, but choosing one taxonomy over another will narrow your vision.) [[User:Melroch|BPJ]] 11:19, 26 June 2009 (UTC)<br />
::That shouldn't be a problem since wikicategories can have multiple parent categories. I imagine in addition to the "lexicon origin" categorization, some kind of typological categorization may be useful to introduce eventually. --[[User:Tropylium|<span class="IPA">Trɔpʏliʊm</span>]] • [[User talk:Tropylium|blah]] 11:40, 26 June 2009 (UTC)<br />

== [[NASS]] ==<br />
<br />
Although you comment that you abandoned it, Ᵹ (Latin capital insular g) is now in Unicode (Ᵹ U+A77D LATIN CAPITAL LETTER INSULAR G). I just thought I'd let you know. [[User:Calculator Ftvb|Calculator Ftvb]] 21:22, 27 April 2010 (UTC)<br />
<br />
== Site issues ==<br />
<br />
I've done some work and was able to get DynamicPageList back up to normal, mostly—I did have to 'nowiki' the DPL on your page and on [[User:Calculator Ftvb|Calculator Ftvb]]'s, as I was not able to get either of them to display due to the errors.<br />
<br />
The webhost was not able to give any insight on why the errors were happening, but I still think there's a resources barrier somewhere along the line—while I was trying to load your page with everything going, the whole site's memory use nearly doubled. I did some testing on the page to see if I could isolate it or if it was just the amount of DPLs involved — I found that just the "pages I created" section is enough to bring up the error, as is the "pages I modified but did not create", and the "pages I created which were last modified by someone else". (Leaving those nowikied and displaying all others works — but I suppose I can't guarantee it will if the server's getting hit from elsewhere too.) <br />
<br />
Anyway, due to these resource issues and the apparent security issues with DPL (in its use of raw HTML) I'm wondering if it might be worthwhile to start looking into transitioning away from it. —[[User:Muke|Muke Tever]] | [[User Talk:Muke|✎]] 17:25, 27 September 2010 (PDT)<br />

== Linking to categories ==<br />
I had no idea there was a way to link directly to categories. >_>;<br />
<br />
On all the pages where I've done a link as though it were an external link to another website, do you think I should ... change this? Or, in your opinion, are they okay to stay how they are?<br />
<br />
:I think that ''eventually'' they should be changed: links to wiki pages should be wikilinks, and not only on principle, but because the "What links here" link in the toolbox won't work correctly otherwise. However I don't think you have to do it ''immediately''; it's lower priority since the 'external' links DWYM as is. [[User:Melroch|BPJ]] 13:43, 28 October 2011 (PDT)<br />
<br />
Thanks for creating that page, though- I seriously had no idea that it was even possible. x_x - [[User:Bornfor|bornfor]] 16:25, 27 October 2011 (EDT)<br />
<br />
:I wonder if I should after all add a parameter for an optional custom link text? I'm divided because it usually '''should''' be quite clear that it is a link to a category page, and the {{link to category|whatever}} format is the best and most convenient way to show it.

==Bâzrâmani in the Ill Bethisad Universe==<br />
Hello! <br />
I'm a member of the Ill Bethisad project. My caretakership is Greece, if you're familiar with it, but I'm also tackling the grey areas of religion in this creative cooperative. Recently, while I was going over our Iran, I noticed that Bazramani is listed as a language spoken there, but unfortunately, no other details are given. The ''only'' sentence where your intellectual property is listed is on our page for Persia. It only says "Bâzrâmani is a Romance language somehow spoken in Persia."<br />
<br />
Are you aware that several years, someone added your conlang to our project? If not, are you okay with it? If you are okay with this, would you mind if I pitch you some ideas for the culture behind these Romance-speakers? <br />
<br />
I don't have much, truth be told. I really only think that they'd be Eastern Orthodox, as opposed to Oriental Orthodox or Assyrian Christians. The Diaphysite Church was upheld by the empire while the Armenians and other Christians of the east outside of the border were left to their own devices and not always invited to ecumenical councils, if ever. I imagine that these are the descendants of Latin-speaking colonists sent to Syria for some reason who were carted off to Mesopotamia and then eventually further east again to the other side of the Euphrates into Persia. The second migration isn't so hard: the Safavids moved a great deal of Christian Circassian, Georgian, and Armenian prisoners to the Iranian Plateau, with the latter converting to Islam. In IB, the ethnic Persians stayed Zoroastrian for the most part, so there's no incentive for anyone forcibly settled east to convert to anything, really. I have found no evidence for any Latin-speakers in Syria at any time before the Islamic conquest of the region, but that doesn't mean it never happened, or that for some reason it couldn't happen. I at first figured that they'd be like our world's Vlach populace of the Balkans, Vulgar Latin speakers that were quasi-nomadic and who took on the culture of the ruling peoples, be they Greek-speaking Romans, Slavs, or even Turks. <br />
<br />
I'd love to discuss this further with you. Thanks,<br />

==Hello from IB!==<br />
Dear Fr. C, <br />
Hello again. I'm the caretaker of Greece over at the Ill Bethisad project. I made an account here to contact the caretaker of Libya, but when I saw your account pop up on this site's edit history, I had to say something. Would you ever consider coming back to IB? Now that I have a degree in international affairs and modern Greek, I know how to actually ''write'' about politics and the economy and no longer treat this as some sort of online game of Risk. I have a dozens of ideas I want to implement for Greece and proposals for the Eastern Mediterranean region, so I'd be quite happy to have a partner in this part of the IBosphere. Our own frathwiki is still the same, but not many of us have a Facebook group that allows for instant communication instead of the snail mail that the Yahoo Group has become. If you have an account, this is the link: https://www.facebook.com/groups/10758889087/<br />
I look forward to potentially hearing from you again,<br />

<div>1) What names should I use to differentiate between the syllables of the radical and the syllables of the surface form?<br />
2) Should I rename genitive prepositional construct something with 'relative' in it? It does resemble a relative.<br />

==Hello Again from Ill Bethisad!==<br />
Hey, Mr. Miles!<br />
You may not remember me, it's been about eight or nine years now, but we used to correspond over at Yahoo Conculture and Ill Bethisad's wiki. Recently, after taking some years off, I've gotten back into it recently. I actually studied North Africa quite a bit in college, so now the region's become a passion of mine. I've been thinking about my domain, Greece,and its relationship with your country, Libya. I have a thousand ideas, and I'd love to flesh out not only my country, but ask if you'd be interested in coming back and fleshing out your country, too. Would you consider it? Now that Gaddafi is gone in our world, did you have any contigency plan for IB to mirror what happened in our world, or do you see him staying in power because IB had no equivalent of the Arab Spring? I personally think it's inevitable: maybe not in 2011, but still inevitable nevertheless. I also have a million questions about the demographics and culture of Cyrene, from what percentage of it is Arab(ized Berber), Berber, Cyrenean, & Black Greek, to what the vestments of the Apollinarian clergy look like (I assume like our world's Coptic Orthodox but not necessarily the same). If you're available to talk sometime, my email is mr.xeight@gmail.com.<br />
P.S. A decent amount of us are on a Facebook group explicitly for Ill Bethisad. It's a very easy way for us to keep in contact. Do you have a Facebook group, & if so, would you be interested in joining? <br />
Thanks,<br />

You're the one with the country between Albania and Greece, right? I'd be glad to return to IB, but I'd need to familiarize myself with what has happened in the region, as well as rereading my own material. I'm afraid that I had not considered much about these things. I'll look into clerical vestments. Please send me an invite to the FB group. Is there still an IB wiki I could consult?<br />

Ah, no, that'd be Kyrmse on the wiki, I'm the caretaker of Greece. <br />
That's great to hear! I can tell you confidently that nothing's happened to Libya since you've been inactive, nor really to the Middle East/North Africa region. Really everyone kind of went into hibernation after around '09, myself included. The ''only'' thing to happen in Libya was that I edited it yesterday because I saw that the Senussi were mentioned to be a Wahhabi-Sufi order and Libya's population was listed as being 108 million people, and I felt ''really'' bad about those edits. <br />
<br />
The vestments was just an example, but I'd personally love to know more about what you think the Cyrenean culture looks like, especially because I'd bet big money that the major cities of Greece have Cyrenean and Black Greek immigrants.<br />
<br />
The frathwiki is absolutely still active, yes. Here's a link to Libya: http://ib.frath.net/w/Libya<br />
The Facebook group is open, so you can just join without someone needing to approve you: https://www.facebook.com/groups/10758889087/</div>Misterxeighthttp://www.frathwiki.com/index.php?title=User_talk:LinguarumMagister&diff=104970User talk:LinguarumMagister2017-03-20T03:18:02Z<p>Misterxeight: </p>
