Look here and request permission to have your current account upgraded to admin, hopefully. Wikipedia works different that Uncyclopedia, I guess, so I couldn't give you permissions even if I were a permanant admin, and I probably wouldn't be able to get enough votes at the Baurgs Brunna anyways because there isn't a large enough, active enough community(Well, the three people that I see contributing here are at least semi often Manie, me, and you.).
I will try to fix the errors. I'm certainly not the best at speaking Gothic(I haven't had the time to learn it very well), and using dictionaries I can only do so much. On the front page I invented several words by observing changes between Dutch and Gothic words and attempting to reverse engineer the word and add proper stems and all that. My main mission here is to change the system messages and add a lot of the missing administrative pages, but it seems that I need more time to study a little more into the language.
Ja, ich spriche die Deutsche sprache, aber ich kann spricht es nicht so gut. I only know basic German and not much else. As for French, I could only make out what is said by using Latin cognates. --Jacques Pirat 04:41, 12 July 2007 (UTC)
Thank you for the link. Okay, I am going to transfer the main page to the Latin haubidaseido and then translate it into the Gothic script. I don't find the script unreadable with Skeirs, but it's more difficult for me to read as I am used to the Latin alphabet. Runes are just plain difficult to read because they are spaced so close and appear so small on my screen, though. If you wish, I'll delete the Gothic and rune script pages and switch them to Latin, as well as any system messages that I shall do. --Jacques Pirat 18:22, 12 July 2007 (UTC)
This is good. I'm glad that that will be installed. I'll try to fix the problem with the logo. It shouldn't be too hard.
The only way that you will be able to be permanantly supported is if you get clear support from the community. Otherwise, they'll only temporarily allow you here as admin. I've supported you at the Baurgs Brunna. I'll leave a message on Manie's talk page concerning this.--Jacques Pirat 17:33, 13 July 2007 (UTC)
Baurgs = City/Villiage
Brunna = Well/Spring/Fountain
It's supposed to be like the Villiage Pump on the English Wikipedia. I'll also make note on the spelling of your name. I seem to have confused Latin with Gothic spellings there (character for i = y when in front of a vowel). --Jacques Pirat 16:59, 14 July 2007 (UTC)
I hope that we'll have enough users for Wikimedia to pass. --Jacques Pirat 18:16, 19 July 2007 (UTC)

Hi. Please cast your votes on Wikipedia:Baurgs_Brunna. The Stewards at meta will not set the bot flags until active community members have spoken. Thank you for your attention. Cheers! Siebrand Siebrand 09:29, 29 August 2007 (UTC)
Months and Days of Week
πΉπ½πΌπ°πΉπ³π΄πΉFor translation work, I'm curious: What are the names of the months and days of the week in Gothic? Jacques Pirat
If you are unable to find anything, I guess we'll just make some from Greek transliterations. Tell me if you object to any of them of if they need tweaking. I wanted to do this from Old English to make it at least seem more accurate, but it proved complex.
Months (-jaus/ios, +s/+jis to make Gothic masculine)
- January: Januars (Jan)
- February: Faibraiars (Fai)
- March: Marts (Mar)
- April: Apreils (Apr)
- May: Majis (Maj)
- June: Junjis (Jun)
- July: Juljis (Jul)
- August: Awgusts (Awg)
- September: Septembrs (Sept)
- October: Oktobrs (Okt)
- November: Nauembrs (Nau)
- December: Dekembrs (Dek)
Days of Week (Straight transliteration. It doesn't seem like anything needs to be touched.)
- Sunday: Kurjakei (Kur)
- Monday: Daiwtera (Dai)
- Tuesday: Tritei (Tri)
- Wednesday: Tetartei (Tet)
- Thursday: Pemptei (Pem)
- Friday: Paraskaiwei (Par)

Transliteration function
πΉπ½πΌπ°πΉπ³π΄πΉI've dropped a line at meta:Wikimedia_Forum#Gothic_script_problems asking for help with implementing a transliterator for the Gothic Wikipedia similar to the one used on the Serbian and Chinese ones. Your input there, as a local administrator, would be appreciated. +π·π΄πΊππ°π²ππ½ Β·π°Β· (t) 09:49, 1 Fruma Jiuleis 2008 (UTC)

πΉπ½πΌπ°πΉπ³π΄πΉGreetings. You deleted the page Hilpa:HΓ‘ubidaseido (see here), which however is linked to from the box in the sidebar. Are you sure there was no useful content in the page before it was vandalized? Lambiam 22:18, 23 π²ππ°ππΌπ΄π½ππΈπ 2009 (UTC)
Two questions
πΉπ½πΌπ°πΉπ³π΄πΉ1) Are you still around? 2) Are you able to get Gothic (Wulfilas') script to display properly here? It was difficult for me to figure out in the beginning, now I've upgraded computer and it's all squares againΒ :-) --Node ue 07:48, 24 WarmmenoΓΎs 2010 (UTC)
