Numbers[]
I created these troll numbers using elements of the existing alphabet, with enough resemblance to the appropriate letters O,L,S,E,A,Z,G,T,B, and Q to allow the same letter-for-number substitution as the Trolls actually use.

Whoa, I like it! Very creative and well-thought-out reasoning for the appearance of the numbers. Aepokk ∀ulpex 04:50, January 22, 2016 (UTC)
- Didn't want to make a new section Also named numbers, so uhhhh here is fine. Hiveswap Friendsim Volume 2 announcement gave us numbers, even if only two of them and even if they just look like a weird font of normal modern Earth numerals. Should we add that to the Hiveswap-current image of the Alternian alphabet? Aepokk ∀ulpex 06:50, May 6, 2018 (UTC)
No further examples?[]
I'm in no position to do a close reread now, so I just wanted to throw this question out to the wiki community: are there really no further examples of the Daedric alphabet in the 2000ish pages past that one with Calliope's fanfic book? Also, I believe we should start documenting it for Hiveswap as well. In which case - should we start with the promo art? Do we make that (and each distinct game) a separate category from the game itself? Aepokk ∀ulpex 04:54, January 22, 2016 (UTC)
Rename[]
I think we should prooobably rename this to "Alternian alphabet", since the one used in Hiveswap is definitely not Daedric. We should definitely document both alphabets here (and translations!) though. Ylimegirl – Hero of Hope – 20:51, November 20, 2017 (UTC)
Sure. Mamaopapaya (talk) 23:44, November 20, 2017 (UTC)
Done and done, although I'll need help filling the page out with the Hiveswap usages. BlackholeWI (talk) 12:03, December 6, 2017 (UTC)
Exclamation Point[]
The last symbol in this image is the troll exclamation mark. It is taken from one of Tegiri's endings in Friendsim Volume 10. The text reads "Ore wa kaizoku-ou ni naru otoko da!" This is a statement said by Luffy, the protagonist of the One Piece anime, which loosely translates to "I will become the pirate king!" The image can be removed once the exclamation point is cropped and added to the main table by whoever has the table's original file. Aewin (talk) 03:50, August 18, 2018 (UTC)
Don't know if BlackholeWI is still around, so I added it in his stead. Also, there was a period in Tegiri's first bad end (albeit as a down-shifted version of the apostrophe) so I added that as well. Joseph Staleknight (talk) 21:26, August 19, 2018 (UTC)
New Alternian Chart Error[]
On the key for new alternian you can see a symbol that looks like an x with a dash through it. It is marked as a +, this is wrong. It is in fact an &.

- To be fair, plus signs are sometimes used interchangeably with ampersands. Anyways this would have to be an edit to the image, not the article. Ylimegirl – Hero of Hope – 00:01, May 27, 2020 (UTC)
