The Voynich Ninja

Without a doubt a trait of a good Voynich researcher. I see no problem assigning percentages of likelihood to something though, so I think you solved it well.

Last chance to participate!

I'd like to change my answer to Q13 to "yes" because I hope that we have really hit the target with the plants mnemonics. That would be a breakthrough of course, albeit it might give nothing in terms of text at first.

Okay changed

1. Does the text contain any meaning? Yes
   
2. Has the text been purposefully enciphered to conceal its meaning? No (At most, it could be a code.)
   
3. Do the images match the text? Yes
   
4. Are the plants meant to refer to real plants? Yes (At least, the author considered them to be real.)
   
5. Is the majority of the plants exotic from a European perspective (Asian, African, American...)? I don't know
   
6. Have the images been made ambiguous or otherwise strange to conceal their true meaning? No (No more than was usual.)
   
7. Is alchemy an important part of the manuscript? I don't know
   
8. Is astronomy and/or astrology an important part of the MS? Yes
   
9. Is medicine an important part of the MS? Yes (At least what was understood as medicine at the time.)
   
10. Is the MS the creative product of one mind, i.e. an author? (Taking into account the possibility that one or more scribes helped to fashion the physical manuscript) Yes
    
11. Is the MS authored by a known historical figure? No (They may be known in historical records, but not otherwise.)
    
12. Will we ever be able to read the MS? Yes
    
13. Will there be any breakthrough in Voynich studies in 2017? I don't know
    
14. Is the MS any kind of hoax? No
    

1. Open questions:
   
2. In a few words, what is quire 13 about? (bathing, anatomy, angels......) Bathing, maybe with a focus on women's reproductive health.
   
3. In a few words, what is quire 20 about? I can give no guess better than 'recipes', as there are no clues to its meaning. This is the reason I study the quire the most.
   
4. If we were able to read the script, which language(s) would we read, if any? I still regard Turkic as the best option, historically and linguistically, but it could also be a systematically altered Indo-European language, or even a code-like language (but not a cipher, which is an important distinction for question 2).
