Are people of the opinion that the article in its current state is still a "stub"? If so, could someone please explain what would be necessary to bring it up to 'article' status? If not, could someone remove the class tag?

I would like to replace the rune-images with an actual wiki-friendly runic font. Could someone add these or point me in the right direction?
Varoon Arya14:06, 24 October 2007 (UTC)reply
I'd prefer if the old rune-images were kept. Most computers don't have the runic font installed, and so only specialist, or people with a special interest, will be able to see the runes.--

Meanwhile - for new browsers (not Safari, Apple has stopped the development of his browser) - have extended unicodes up to 77 777, which can be written as &#?????;. Most are chinese letters, but there also are cunelform and hyroglyphs (?) and many more alphabets. So someone who knows runic letters, futhark, should try. Its on the webpage earningcharts.net. — Preceding

You find all runes now as UTF-8 codes, and most browsers visualize them, like all alphabets of the world, including hyroglyphs and cuneiform - in exactly that form given above. Actually there are signs up to 200000, most of them chinese letters. Between 100000 and 140000 there are many interesting ones, i.e. all kinds of animals, a skunk, trees, emojis, some maps etc. Still there are some programming errors.

The Buckle and Old High German
The inscription on the buckle has been characterized as the first instance of the Old High German consonant shift (see under
Alamanni). Would anyone care to elucidate that in this article, as it seems a fairly important development of historical linguistics? Thanks.

I have plans to add an image as well as some sourced information to the article relating to the debate surrounding the actual content of the inscription.

Has anyone done this yet? Because it really needs to be stated why it's believed to be early OHG. Oh nvm, I just realised these comments are like 15 years old.
