Romanization[edit]

Using x rather than χ makes more sense to me. It mirrors what we already do for Proto-Celtic, Brythonic, Russian and a bunch of other languages. —CodeCat 22:26, 14 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Whoever made the frankly cumbersome table copied the wrong form. UtherPendrogn (talk) 22:29, 14 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I'll fix that. By the way, what is the source of your frankly implausible list of consonants? —JohnC5 04:06, 15 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Why is it implausible? They didn't distinguish between voiced and unvoiced consonants. See what I mean? You don't even know enough about the language. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Old_Italic_script#Alphabet_of_Lugano UtherPendrogn (talk) 05:26, 15 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

This one just baffles me[edit]

@UtherPendrogn, the link [[Lepontic:Romanisation]] doesn't work. There is no “Lepontic” namespace on Wiktionary, that page you keep pointing to doesn't exist, and there is no precedent of putting Romanization on pages named like that. Also, for documentation of specific languages (e.g. WT:ADE, WT:AINE-PRO, WT:AAR), the shortcut format is [[WT:A<the language code>]]. The language code for Lepontic is xlp, not cel-xlp, so the shortcut format is WT:AXLP. —JohnC5 05:08, 15 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

It existed before being deleted. LOOK at the Beer Parlour, that script is wrong. And fine, but please adress the actual issue of misleading people by misdirecting to the WRONG SCRIPT.UtherPendrogn (talk) 05:20, 15 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
