Hi, Theudariks. Thank you for all your contributions to our Proto-Germanic pages. I appreciate your effort to move pages into the Reconstruction namespace, but this is unnecessary work on your part. These pages will be better and more easily moved by bot. --WikiTiki89 18:41, 29 February 2016 (UTC)
Just so you know, this is considered part of Old Norse, and its language code is "non". So it doesn't get its own language line in descendants. If you want Old Gutnish to be its own language you'll have to argue your case at the WT:BP. —CodeCat 17:23, 15 March 2016 (UTC)
Hi Theudariks! I wasn't aware that PGmc *spēnuz had acquired the meaning of "spoon" yet. I was under the impression that it developed later in Old English for flat wooden spoons (spatulas). Where did you find this? Leasnam (talk) 15:10, 4 April 2016 (UTC)
Do you have any source that confirms ?Auðvin as an attested form in Old Norse (In Reconstruction:Proto-Germanic/Audawiniz)? In the sources I could find, it is only listed as an explanation for the derivation of Auðunn – Krun (talk) 01:34, 11 April 2016 (UTC)
Hi! I was under the impression that this was not attested, but rather assumed based on the noun derivative *gaitein ("little goat"). Leasnam (talk) 16:53, 14 April 2016 (UTC)
Hi ! You added Middle Low German harm as an adjective to *harmaz. Do you have a source for the adjective ? Leasnam (talk) 01:03, 29 December 2016 (UTC)

How are you so sure that these actually existed in Proto-Germanic, and are not later innovations? —CodeCat 21:10, 19 April 2017 (UTC)

Why do you keep deleting {{desctree}}
in descendant trees? Are you not familiar with it? --Victar (talk) 02:58, 23 May 2017 (UTC)
Why is this reconstructed the way it is? Is there even a regular correspondence between OE þþ and tt in all other languages? And why is it a consonant stem anyway, if all of its descendants point to there having been another syllable? 189.197.236.75 18:59, 26 September 2017 (UTC)
Hi Theudariks. Thanks for righting the error I made (can't believe it got by me)! Even though it says it is from PG *bistelaną, I personally don't know if it existed in that time or if it was made later on (I took the PG source from besteal). It might or might not have been in PG, but I just don't know, so I'm just giving a heads up. Anglish4699 (talk) 02:11, 24 October 2017 (UTC)
Should this be RFV'd? DTLHS (talk) 02:08, 4 March 2018 (UTC)
Thanks for your work on this and Seychellois Creole! Please take a look at Wiktionary:About Mauritian Creole; it discusses templates like {{mfeetylz}}
and {{mfe-verb}}
that you'll not only want to make use of, but probably want Seychellois versions of as well. Cheers! —Μετάknowledgediscuss/deeds 15:41, 15 May 2018 (UTC)
