Elmincár has a fair number of gods (about 21 at my last count), all of which are real. However, in keeping with the previous entries in this thread, I shall post about the two most unusual ones. This is also because most of the others do not have much in the way of interesting material, which is itself partially because several of them are occupied fighting Magán (spoilers: they lose), and many of the rest simply don't care about mortals.

Okay, there is now a convenient move button for languages and families. Individual articles probably won't benefit too much from this because they can be child pages of, well, basically everything, so for the time being I haven't added this feature to those.
I also fixed the table mode rendering for Universe Lists, so if you have any of those, they should finally show up on your universe page. They're still interestingly broken in other ways, though.

Maybe this will live here now?
So! Whatic inherits the typical 'minor/major' verb contrast from Proto-Ziwanic, but the reduplication pattern, as usual for Ziwanic, is simplified: at an early stage, presumably before monosyllabization, the full reduplication characterizing the major stage was reduced to a C1V1- prefix. Then geminate syncope applies, creating an initial geminate, which is resolved in various ways in the different Whatic languages; in What proper, initial geminates simply ...

I've been reading the very excellent Kill Six Billion Demons comic recently, which has an exhaustingly nuanced hagiography based on a fundamental divine order. Consequently, when I went back to look at 2L, its purpose and design was readily apparent even in the absence of a monograph describing its purpose. So, here is my attempt at deciphering the notes Anguipes has left us.

That's an oversight. It's <ú>, which is just /uː/. Within Lilitika's tense-lax system, /uː iː eː/ <ú í é> are paired with /ʌ ɪ ɛ/ <u i e>. Usually the accent of a word has to fall on a tense vowel, with the unpaired /oː/ <o> also counting as tense and the unpaired /a/ <a> counting as lax.
