== Dėkujå ==
Just wanted to say thank you for fixing the page. Didn't know, where to do it though, so I'm just leaving it here. (Raistas)
== Delete ==
If I make a mistake and create a page that is clearly stupid, how do I tag it for deletion?  I don't have the power and it doesn't seem right to bug specific people to delete a specific page.  Is there something <nowiki>[[:Category:Delete me]]</nowiki>? --[[User:Aquatiki|Aquatiki]] ([[User talk:Aquatiki|talk]]) 03:39, 1 December 2018 (CET)

== Infobox language ==
So, I recently noticed that I'm prevented from editing templates that're transcluded on the main page, specifically [[Template:Infobox language]] and its subpages, and I was wondering either 1. if there's a way to work around this, 2. if you could turn-off cascading for the main page, or 3. if I could be given permission to edit these pages? If you just don't want non-admins editing these pages, that's completely fine too, but please let me know. -[[User:Учхљёная]] <sup>([[User_talk:Учхљёная|talk]],[[:Category:Conlangs by Elliott Wheeler|conlangs]],[[Special:Contributions/Учхљёная|edits]])</sup>. 18:20, 19 January 2019 (CET).

== Deletion of Template:LangAbb ==
<del>[[Template:LangAbb]] was deleted, breaking functionality of [[Template:Etym]], which is used in various Contionary entries. I do not ask it be reinstated, but I would like to have access to its history so that I can view its interface and update Etym to use [[Template:ISO]].</del> Nevermind, I figured it out, the template is back in working order

== Deletion of an image and changing of a page title ==
Hello,
</del>I'm quite new here in Linguifex and I did a (or two) mistake(s).
1. At updating a image which shows ,,Zimâna Ħāwārî (translates to ,,Hawari language")" in my newly invented Ṭoňżeĝâyî script, it always shows the former version of the image where I set the direction so: top to bottom, right to left, even if it should be left to right. To fix that issue, I would like to let it be deleted, and I don't know how one does it.
2. This mistake is less important to fix: Instead of giving my article title the name ,,Hawari language" I just wrote ,,Hawari". If possible, would you be able to change it?</del>
Thank you and have a good day👋🏼
Update (01.05.2020, 17:29 UTC): Thank you for fixing these two issues.😀
Yours sincerely, [[User:MansenBk|MansenBk]] ([[User talk:MansenBk|talk]]) 16:27, 1 May 2020 (UTC).
== Lost Conlangs ==
Hi. A while ago a user on Frathwiki started a project to try and rescue info about conlangs that had been stored on Langmaker in the 2000s, gone down with it but was retrievable via the Web Archive copies of Langmaker. They got so far then drifted off. I'm volunteering to start it again, and I also want to make my own (privately run but publicly accessible) list of the world's conlangs (probably in spreadsheet and searchable database form). I want to combine the jobs to reduce work time; I also think it would be good to have the same info in different places (as what was so unfortunate about Langmaker going down was so much of its info was not stored elsewhere). So I was wondering, would you be interested in allowing similar records of such langs here? I'm guessing not on account of your "non-sufficient content/long inactivity" deletion rule plus high style standards etc. However even if not how about a single page (/multiple if running over) with a name and barest details? I'd be prepared to do all the work, although help would certainly be appreciated. :)

== Safety on the Website ==
Dear Chrysophylax,
I have a quite important question about the website itself. Well, whenever I (it is also not only me) open the site from Discord, I get a warning saying that this website may steal personal or financial information and thus should be closed. Do you know why the warning appears?
Yours sincerely,

== Tahano Hikamu font ==
Hi! I've been tinkering around lately with [[:Category:Ayeri lemmas|Ayeri entries]]. As you probably know, Ayeri is written in this quite-Brahmic script called ''Tahano Hikamu''. The creator of Ayeri, Carsten Becker, created a font for it and [https://github.com/carbeck/tagatibookg released it]. I've been wondering if it'd be possible for you or any administrator to add this font to Linguifex so I can use it. Since it's based on SIL Graphite engine, the font declaration must use the .ttf file, not .woff. Thanks!

: '''Edit:''' Wording and further details. 11:46, 27 June 2022 (UTC)
: '''Edit 2:''' I'll also need a script definition in Linguifex's common.css for <code>.Ayer</code>, much like [[wikt:MediaWiki:Common.css|Wiktionary's]]. Thanks! 17:12, 3 August 2022 (UTC)
