**Welcome to the Lingolog Wiki!**

A lot of language pages have been added. Nothing especially diverse, but a good amount.

11/12/21

All (or at least most) of the language families have been added to the tree.

11/07/21

The article Article Formatting has been created. It will be updated for any future needs. All language articles must follow what the article outlines. Please note, if the page is unfinished, you don't have to include every section. That is only necessary when the entry has been marked 'finished'.

11/06/21

Currently the Indo-European tree is being worked on. Several Celtic languages have gained articles (aka stubs) as well as some others (aka also stubs).

11/24/21

I created a lot of language pages. Most are barebones, with just short descriptions, and maybe an infobox, but others have phonology sections started.

11/12/21

I was meaning to create a log yesterday, but I didn’t feel well and went to bed early. On the 11th, I used the knowledge I gained from creating this wiki in a quiz bowl game. The question was about Zoroastrianism, and I got it because they mentioned Avestan! Also, all language families have been added.

11/07/21

Nothing super special happened today, since I was occupied most of the time and haven't gone to ask from any subreddits. I expanded the Tree to include more languages/dialects and created the Article Formatting page (please adhere to it).

11/06/21

The tree has been expanded to include additional Indo-Iranian languages. It's pretty difficult to add a lot of languages here that it is for the Google Doc that I use to lay everything out before adding them officially, not to mention the fact that I can use Docs offline and just have a Wikipedia article open and not refresh it. I have to thank Domskr for beginning several articles on Celtic languages (even if they are unformatted and they are neither a native or fluent speaker of them, they tell me to do some work over there, which generally gets me more productive). Some additional articles
were started (Welsh Romanization and Latin Alphabet), but they are nothing special and rather barebones. Yesterday, I posted in r/linguistics, crying out for help because the rather rigid structure I had in mind for categorization didn't line up with the fluid and complex nature of language categorization (you can see in the comments that one of the two threads was about this). I also used the post to ask if some random speakers of relatively unknown languages lurked there, but I didn't find anyone (unless you count Domskr, but the rarest they've told me they know is Farsi). I think in the future, I'll go to specific subreddits for stuff like that (if you're reading this because of that, hi!). Well, it's 11:47 here, so I'd better end this.
