BRD

That's two editors that have asked you to support [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Scots_language&diff=prev&oldid=1247140612 your edit], one because they thought the wording was not an improvement, myself because your reinstatement without discussion with them was not a constructive or co-operative course. I had been aware of your series of edits and the impression I had was that they were largely beneficial and am open to the potential benefits of the wording in the edit that is in contention. Warring, instead of engaging, is not a persuasive way of advancing your case. BRD is optional, yes, as is shooting yourself in the foot. Please restore the status quo ante and persuade us. You may have made that hill a little harder to climb now. Mutt Lunker (talk) 09:53, 23 September 2024 (UTC)

Official status

the link used to define it as "official" in Scotland is dated and current page no longer claims that. Just says the language is recognised. Is there a citation to actual status under Scottish or UK government? GraemeLeggett (talk) 13:19, 7 December 2024 (UTC)

At the end of the section 'Literature', please ADD:

In 2022, the release of Poemes Ecossais by French poet Paul Malgrati, marked the first publication in Scots written by a non-native Anglophone.https://www.bluediode.co.uk/product-page/po%C3%A8mes-%C3%A9cossais Wormshill30 (talk) 18:59, 1 May 2025 (UTC)
