For me, the forum is exclusively a place to discuss, not a place to store information.
It is bad enough that the extraordinarily rich amount of information contained in this site is unorganised and irretrievable. (No criticism to anyone: it was never meant to be).
I am surely not the only one who remembers to have read something here some time ago, but was unable to find it back using the search function. (Yes, sometimes I did succeed).
As another bite of food for thought: there are really two types of solutions.
One type is a proposed translation.
The other type is "what the manuscript represents" without any attempt to translate any part of it.
The latter was probably not intended to be addressed by this thread, but there seem to be equally many of them.
* Modern fake by Wilfrid V.
* Depiction of ensoulment
* The travels of a relative of the Barbavaras
* The thing that @moonchild was proposing (don't know how to describe it)
* Others
