Formatting
[edit]Hi! Wiktionary formatting is relatively strict compared to Wikipedia, especially when it comes to headers. Something like ===Grammaticalised <em lang="gd">air</em> + <em>{{l|gd|son}}</em>, meaning ‘for (the sake of)’=== is not a valid header. I cleaned it up for you (the information you added under that header at air seemed like a usage note), but you re-added it, so I rolled your edits back. Since you were editing Scottish Gaelic, @Mahagaja may be able to offer you further guidance. - -sche (discuss) 05:56, 19 March 2018 (UTC)
- We do already have entries for airson and air son, so even the usage note is probably unnecessary. —Mahāgaja (formerly Angr) · talk 12:06, 19 March 2018 (UTC)
I wanted to emphasise the most important use of son which is that in conjunction with air and how it is thoroughly grammaticalised (almost ?) all the time. CecilWard (talk) 11:38, 22 September 2023 (UTC) 08:57, 23 March 2018 (UTC)
t-prothesis
[edit]The entries for t-prothesis are those of Irish ‘tV’ or ‘tS not ‘t-’ as it should be for Scottish Gaelic. In one case it shows a non-existent entry for a feminine noun that is vowel-initial. It would be better to only generate the forms that are legal in the case of feminine nouns and not mislead learners. I could not fix that entry by hand as it is auto-generated by rules.

Ogham
[edit]I would very much like to be able to search for Primitive/Ogham Irish forms using their romanised transcription representations. Is there a way to link such things to the unicode Ogham heading entries, preferably without duplicating anything much? CecilWard (talk) 11:27, 22 September 2023 (UTC)
