Newtlang incubator (NP: NWC) (2016-10-04 00:34:01) :
[quote twabs, Conversational Speaker, /ˈajwʌ/]Better to call that branch "proto-ichthys"... assuming I'll keep it at all, which I'm sort of iffy on right now. The other branch Proto-*fruit I like better. Turns out obscure fruits make great language names. (Proto-*, by the way, is from the Unix for "all-encompassing".)

Up until now I was thinking "why is this [i]my[/i] fault; also your 'solution' is the laziest thing I've seen", then I realized what Annie is, viz: a wiki that simply doesn't look like one.
