Okay. I'll work on it. Maybe it'll end up being more like an abbr tag, where whole words can be highlighted rather than just embedding notes.

It would be quite silly to have a real-world mythology section here because, as has been noted, it wouldn't provide any advantage over, say, just going to Wikipedia or going to a real academic source.
The goal of having reference language stuff here is just to provide dictionary coverage for developing derived conlangs via SCA; I've only really let the project get as inclusive as it is because it provides a novel and useful conlanging perspective on the subject matter in some cases (e.g...

Don't worry, there [i]is[/i] a cure—you just need to start taking literature intravenously, and everything will mellow out.
I [i]am[/i] semi-seriously considering the possibility of integrating your SCA into Anthologica as a server-side Java application, though, so you'd better be thorough in your documentation!

[quote dhok]One idea is to have an entry field for strings of characters that must be treated as single characters. Using Zompist's SCA, I've often found myself resorting to such extravagant representations as Devanagari characters for phonemes that the Latin alphabet has trouble representing easily.
This SCA could set aside a block of rarely-used Unicode characters- say, Yi syllabics- and replace each string in this block with a character from this block. (The nice thing about computer...

I think Ness's point is about rule contamination; without using an unambiguous intermediate representation, poorly-defined environmental descriptions can cause conflicts, e.g.
pʰ > p
p > b | m_
...when one desires that original mp > mb, but original mpʰ > mp (Presumably real examples are somewhat more complex.) As a programmer, of course, that just looks like an order-of-operations mistake, but, then, the standard formalism for representing sound changes seems d...
