User Talk:PisceesumsprecanI'm very interested in what seems to be a double comma in Dalcurian. Although I can guess, what exactly dictates its usage?

• Thanks for the info on the double comma. Would you mind if I used it in my conlang? I could put a reference in - loan feaure from Dalcurian

Hi! The Table of Contents is automatically generated, so there's nothing we can do about with that in particular, though you can create a box to replace it; the <tt>__NOTOC__</tt> directive placed anywhere in a page suppresses the automatic Table of Contents, and you can make a box with whatever information or links you like in it. You can put links anywhere in a page, not just at the bottom; if you don't want to go to the trouble to build your own TOC you could use something like Wikipedia's format for subarticles:

Adjectives

Main article: Dal'qörian adjectives

—with summary information in the top page and more detailed information in the linked subpage, or even something like:

Adjectives

—though this is perhaps less intuitive. —Muke Tever | ✎ 16:01, 17 December 2006 (PST)

Images

Wikipedia:Help:Extended image syntax probably explains images better than I can (if you place the image above any headings, and use the alignment of 'right', it should go to the right of the TOC).

As for color in a table header, you'll use CSS:

every item in this row	gets the same style
unstyled header	another one
Just one colored	Another without color
or it can be	the other way around

Source looks like:

{|
|- style="background:lightgreen;"
! every item in this row || gets the same style
|-
! unstyled header || another one
|-
!style="background:#8888ff;"| Just one colored
! Another without color
|-
! or it can be 
!style="background:#f88;"| the other way around
|}

Hope this helps. —Muke Tever | ✎ 03:24, 19 December 2007 (PST)

Hi, Rivendale. I've done the punctuation section on my page now and have explained the Tauro-Piscean usage of the double comma, giving Dalcurian its due credit: Tauro-Piscean_language

Have you ever developed a Dalcurian dictionary? I'm quite interested in your conlang. I'd also like to know more about the word order; you haven't worked on your page for a while.

Hi,

In response to your comment, I really like the rich history behind your language. I like the fact that although it has recognisable influence from real languages, it has developed its own distinct feel. The decription of the rulers certainly make it plausible.

My e-mail address is [email protected]. If you're okay sending it, I'd find a dictionary interesting. My own dictionary is in the making (it may have to be delayed until summer because I'm very busy for the next few months).

Also, thanks for the correction to my article.

Regards, Sean. --Pisceesumsprecan 03:32, 10 April 2008 (PDT)
