[gothic-l] Streitberg vs. Wright

I have a question for the group. I am trying to determine the
declension/conjugation information for all lemmas that exist in Gothic
literature.

However, I have come across some apparent contradictions between
Streitberg's grammar and Wright's grammar. Unfortunately I can barely
read German so I tend to prefer Wright. Streitberg's glossary contains
*complete* information to determine all noun declensions for example,
while Wright often just simply lists a noun and it's gender. This is
often not enough information to determine the declension and because
of this I am now starting to prefer Streitberg. Unfortunately I do
know if there is a general concensus on the strengths and weaknesses
of each grammar.

I would welcome any recommendations concerning the use of one over the
other.
