1) Voynichese text, or part of it, contains (semantic) meaning. 30%

2) The contents have been enciphered with simple substitution or something close to it. 0%, as simple substitution provably can't work

3) The contents have been enciphered using a more complex cipher. 10%

4) The contents have been obscured, but not by means of a cipher. 80% (maybe Steganographic methods were used)

5) The images match the text- 20%- Some seem that You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view..

10) Alchemy is an important part of the MS- 20% - there seem to be a few alchemical-type symbols and illustrations

11) Astronomy and/or astrology are an important part of the MS- 30%, maybe? That is, it is there, but what percentage does it make up of the entire work (which was the way I answered it)

12) Medicine an important part of the MS- 60%? The cut and uncut plants seem to imply this content. Also, You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. would explain medicinal content inclusion.

13) The MS is 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)- 80%- Although I believe this was the brainchild of Wilfrid, several others may have offered some elements

14) The MS is authored by a known historical figure. Let's define "known" as "has a Wikipedia entry"- 99%- Wilfrid Voynich

15) One day, we will be able to read the MS- I have no idea, and so, could not offer a percentage for this... Too many variables for me to have a judgment here: Does it have meaning? If so, was it encrypted correctly? Is that encryption the type that is solvable? Will anyone look to the right system? Etc...

16) There will be a breakthrough in Voynich studies in 2024-2025- 60%- It may not be accepted, as such, though, in my experience. But a tree falls in the forest and all that... and I'm counting the tree.

18) Have (part of) your views about the MS changed notably over the last few years? 10%- Small things, for me, over the last 8 or so. Major things before that... which I don't take as "few years". If it were asked, "over the last 12 years", then I would have said 100%.
