Talk:spaghetti junction

spaghetti junction

 * The following was originally posted at WT:RFV

"A complicated interchange with many intertwining roads." Isn't this "the Spaghetti Junction"?

 * I always thought that it was a specific interchange - viz Gravelly Hill Interchange near Birmingham - and was capitalized. SemperBlotto 15:15, 30 June 2010 (UTC)
 * I suspect it might have become more widespread since then, but that's what an RFV is for, to check. Mglovesfun (talk) 15:19, 30 June 2010 (UTC)
 * A bgc search for "a spaghetti junction" finds 233 raw hits, many of which seem to be clearly uses in the highway sense, some further metaphorical extensions. Are we sure this isn't just the metaphorical sense of spaghetti? If you know what "spaghetti" is, have mentioned highways (or railroads), and have the acquaintance of any modern intersection of limited-access highway, then the meaning is NISoP.
 * There seem to be many complex interchanges that carry the moniker of "Spaghetti Junction": Louisville, KY; Atlanta, GA; Durban, SA; Auckland, NZ; as well as one in West Midlands, UK (Gravely Hill?). DCDuring TALK 16:42, 30 June 2010 (UTC)
 * I've got some references to use. I've also found evidence of spaghetti junction used for other complex intertwining of paths (the final of my references show a spaghetti junction of nerves). Are these OK? I'll add another definition to spaghetti junction.--Mat200 22:16, 30 June 2010 (UTC)

 * 1) * 1948, Parliamentary debates: Official report, Volume 463:
 * One scheme for what could have been another spaghetti junction problem became very simple with the help of the urban traffic control authority, and many millions of pounds were, I believe, saved.
 * 1) * 2004, The last of England?
 * The volume of actual traffic in England, after all, had long since overwhelmed simple crossroads, requiring the construction of spaghetti junctions instead. Their complexity, and faintly foreign flavour, made them better metaphors for an era of more involved literary route-planning.
 * 1) * 2006, Torque - Mar 2006
 * With viaducts, spaghetti junctions and underground roads, there is a way for Singapore to keep moving. But the strategy to keep us moving goes beyond building roads and setting up ERP gantries.
 * 1) * 2002, John Farndon - 1000 facts on human body
 * The spinal nerves are made up of 8 cervical nerve pairs, 12 thoracic pairs, 5 lumbar pairs, 5 sacral pairs and one coccyx pair. Many spinal nerves join up just outside the spine in five spaghetti junctions called plexuses.
 * Its use to refer to various spaghetti-like junctions, as of nerves, goes to DCDuring's point that it's SOP. —msh210℠ (talk) 05:15, 1 July 2010 (UTC)
 * What's SOP? --Mat200 12:23, 1 July 2010 (UTC)
 * The sum of its parts, semantically. See [[Wiktionary:Criteria for inclusion]]. Other jargon used by Wiktionarians when speaking amongst themselves can be found at [[Wiktionary:Glossary]]. —msh210℠ (talk) 12:30, 1 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Doesn't seem to me to be SoP, you can't have a spaghetti road, turning, highway, motorway. If it were just figurative use it would collocate with almost anything you want it to. Mglovesfun (talk) 12:43, 1 July 2010 (UTC)
 * As real-world considerations always restrict the possible range of feasibly collocations, the argument you advance would allow virtually any difference in relative frequencies of collocation of one word with another (or sufficiently high mutual information scores) to justify inclusion.
 * Fairly common collocations involving metaphorical use of this aspect of the meaning of "spaghetti" include "bowl", "grid", "cords", and "code" (COCA). From my own experience, confirmed by bgc, "spaghetti chart/diagram/graph" are fairly common. DCDuring TALK 14:31, 1 July 2010 (UTC)
 * We have spaghetti code:. Equinox ◑ 15:19, 1 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Should we? We have many such metaphorical uses with no obvious real special meaning that gamers or computer specialists or others insist has such a special meaning. DCDuring TALK 15:38, 1 July 2010 (UTC)

This would indeed be SOP, if the term described a junction made of spaghetti. bd2412 T 16:56, 1 July 2010 (UTC) Nobody noticed we're at RFV (not RFD) here? -- Prince Kassad 16:57, 1 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Now at Wiktionary:Requests for deletion

 * Keep per Mglovesfun's observation above. bd2412 T 17:09, 1 July 2010 (UTC)
 * My instinct says keep. While marathon match (a very long match) is SoP because marathon collocates with any noun, spaghetti does not. Unless someone can show otherwise. Mglovesfun (talk) 17:11, 1 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Hits at and . —msh210℠ (talk) 17:27, 1 July 2010 (UTC)
 * The first of those collocations gets about 1.2% of the number of hits for spaghetti junction; the second gets less than one half of one percent as many. The dominance of "spaghetti junction" is even greater with Google Books hits. bd2412 T 00:35, 2 July 2010 (UTC)

 * Keep per Mglovesfun and BD2412. Thryduulf (talk) 19:44, 1 July 2010 (UTC)
 * The senses of "spaghetti" in attributive use are somewhat interesting and illustrative of what we lose by focusing on the collocations as entries in themselves instead of as illustrations of the meanings language users convey by using words like "spaghetti". The meanings I find at COCA are:
 * shape (strap, stripe, string, shirt, paper?)
 * Italian (western, side [trust me])
 * configuration of strands (junction, bowl, maze, grid)
 * floppy (leg, limb, hair?, cord?)
 * Even in the food area, "spaghetti squash" and "spaghetti stickiness" convey somewhat peripheral attributes of spaghetti.
 * Does anyone have any good ideas about what we should do with such clearly demonstrable meanings. Should we assume that our users will figure them out either from our definitions of the noun or from the collocations we choose to keep? DCDuring TALK 02:25, 2 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Which of those even meet the CFI in terms of having three durably archived sources? As far as I can tell right off the bat, "spaghetti shirt", "spaghetti stripe", "spaghetti limb", and "spaghetti grid" do not. bd2412 T 03:42, 2 July 2010 (UTC)
 * You've missed the point. I have no particular interest in any of the collocations. I am interested in the attributive meanings of spaghetti that they show. Our fetishization of collocations like "spaghetti junction" leads us to neglect the meanings of that a word like "spaghetti" brings to the noun phrases in which it is an adjunct to the head of the phrase. A "spaghetti junction" is certainly a type of junction. What type it is can be inferred from semantically similar uses in other collocations, such as with "bowl", "maze", and "grid".
 * MZajac's interest in showing collocations is connected to my interest, but more general. I am specifically focused on the attributive use of nouns. This is one of the most common sources of debatable (and repeatedly debated) entries. Attributive use of nouns is also a source of repeated entry of adjective PoSs for nouns that have not become true adjectives. And, lastly, attributive use is the "bete noire" of those who don't understand the impulse behind our now-gutted CFI for proper nouns, that is, the impulse to maintain a distinction between linguistic and encyclopedic content. DCDuring TALK 09:46, 2 July 2010 (UTC)
 * I don't think he has missed the point. You've shown that this can be used attributively with different meanings. However this meaning (overcomplicated, entwined, etc.) only collocates with a few nouns. Spaghetti junction is literally a hundred times more common than all the others. If anything, I think your research reinforces his point. Mglovesfun (talk) 11:23, 2 July 2010 (UTC)

 * Keep due to etymology and due to heavy figurative use, either of which would suffice by itself IMO. DAVilla 06:45, 2 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep per BD2412's analysis. Mglovesfun (talk) 11:19, 2 July 2010 (UTC)
 * At COCA all nine hits for "spaghetti junction" are from newspapers and transcriptions of broadcast programming and are for proper noun use, eg, "a course aimed at making you able to drive through "Spaghetti Junction" northeast of town, where an eight-lane highway meets a 12-lane highway." How does that work out at bgc? DCDuring TALK  13:18, 2 July 2010 (UTC)
 * From a superficial inspection, only about 840 of the bgc hits (22%) are for the plural form or determiner/article + singular form. Arguably all of them are for the common noun. Of the remainder 75-90 percent are referring to specific intersections for which this is the nickname. So perhaps a third of the total usage at books is for the common noun. News is even more heavily weighted toward proper-noun use. DCDuring TALK 13:36, 2 July 2010 (UTC)

Kept. Mglovesfun (talk) 11:33, 29 August 2010 (UTC)

Category talk:English postpositions

Category:English postpositions
This empty category seems to be the result of some dirigiste effort at uniformity associated with templates such as etc. DCDuring TALK * Holiday Greetings! 16:44, 29 December 2009 (UTC)

 * Well, although we may not want "Postposition" as a POS header for English (per this dicussion), it seems like the category can still add some value, if supplied with tenants such as notwithstanding. Keep, or alternatively move to Category:English ambipositions. -- Visviva 17:01, 29 December 2009 (UTC)

 * Perhaps. But I am at a loss how to remove it from the text of Category:English parts of speech, which is controlled by the non-transparent logic of . DCDuring TALK * Holiday Greetings! 17:12, 29 December 2009 (UTC)
 * AFAICT it should be automatic. See template:categorytree/subcatlist. — msh210 ℠ 17:39, 29 December 2009 (UTC)
 * What do you mean? I don't really grok Template. What if we keep the category, but don't want to show it as a part of speech in the category? Can we not have one without the other? How about dumping then? Or did I miss a vote on that? DCDuring TALK * Holiday Greetings! 18:52, 29 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Can't think of a real reason to delete it. Is there any reason not to keep the category, even if it just has one or two articles in it, which are nevertheless correct? Mglovesfun (talk) 19:01, 29 December 2009 (UTC)
 * If its mere existence leads to the automatic creation of error in a page containing, then either it goes or (as currently written) does at Category:English parts of speech. I am indifferent as to which. DCDuring TALK * Holiday Greetings! 19:16, 29 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Sorry, I misunderstood your question. (I thought you wanted to know if it'd be removed from English POSes' list if deleted, which, yes, it would, automatically, AFAICT.) It seems it can be removed from English POSes' list if not deleted by removing  from template:poscatboiler/theList. But it would still be categorized in English POSes, and link thereto atop its own page. To get rid of those without doing the same for every language would require more template-fu than I have. — msh210 ℠ 20:09, 29 December 2009 (UTC)

 * Can someone give me a plausible reason to delete this? Mglovesfun (talk) 12:20, 30 December 2009 (UTC)

 * Our definition of postposition seems to imply that they don't exist in English; if true, this should be deleted. If false, could someone de-specify the definition and add an example or two to the category. Conrad.Irwin 15:01, 30 December 2009 (UTC)
 * I believe notwithstanding was in this category, but was removed. Mglovesfun (talk) 15:10, 30 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Most English reference grammars don't use the term, but often point out that preposition in English is a misnomer insofar as it is applied to terms like notwithstanding, which can appear either before and after its noun, and apart and aside when not followed by a PP headed by "from". Some put ago and on (in the sense of "following" or "after") in the same category. DCDuring TALK * Holiday Greetings! 17:25, 30 December 2009 (UTC)
 * User:Msh210/Sandbox. — msh210 ℠ 17:51, 30 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Judging from the use of the term in the context of the language pages it seems intended to reflect a grammatical category for a type of function word that seems usually to function like prepositions. I don't think that anyone would remove an English word from the English adjective class merely because it was used usually or always after the noun it modifies.
 * Because this might be a useful class in English, albeit in a sense different from its purported sense in the implicit universal grammar sense it was being imposed here, I have removed from Category:English parts of speech and replaced it with corrected and augmented text. The decision to keep it or not need not be influenced by the peripheral issue of that template family. DCDuring TALK * Holiday Greetings! 18:19, 30 December 2009 (UTC)

Kept, note this was emptied at one point, so whatever was in it should go back there (unless incorrect, of course). Mglovesfun (talk) 10:15, 31 October 2010 (UTC)

"thereafter"?
This is listed as an adverb, but can it also be a postposition, as in "five years thereafter". Mark314159 (talk) 19:50, 22 February 2014 (UTC)

 * No, it's still an adverb. "Five years thereafter" means "thereafter by five years", just like "five years later", "five years earlier", etc. This is different from "five years ago", where "ago" is a postposition because it can't be used on its own. "He died thereafter" works, but not *"He died ago". 2003:E5:EF08:5924:1F1:348D:D9AF:CCEE 14:05, 5 November 2020 (UTC)

reverted translation
Hi,

I disagree with some of your radical changes to my translations into Mandarin Chinese. The translations taken from Chinese literature and supported by a dictionary. 长椅子 a synonym for "sofa", not just "bench". 分不出 is OK as a predicative adjective, e.g. ...它给太阳拥抱住了，分不出身来. --Anatoli 14:05, 2 June 2011 (UTC)

 * 1) Do these 長椅子s look like sofas?
 * 2) 它给太阳拥抱住了，分不出身来. literally means "It has been embraced by the sun and cannot separate its body (from the sun)" or "It has been embraced by the sun and cannot leave", which is not at all similar to "indistinguishable". 60.240.101.246 04:15, 5 June 2011 (UTC)

updating Mandarin character entries.
When you update Mandarin character entries that have both simplified and traditional forms, can you make sure both entries are updated? We try not to prefer one writing form over the other and as a result we are currently stuck with this duplicate entry situation. Jamesjiao → T ◊ C 01:02, 28 September 2011 (UTC)

 * Ideally, either only one is kept or such repetitive work is finished by bots. Pinyin should be completely deleted. It is no more than a transcription scheme. Ease for non-speakers in learning is not an excuse. 60.240.101.246 11:12, 29 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Botting is a good suggestion, but there are other intricasies involved. For example, everything on a traditional script entry needs to be written in that script (except for references to its simplified counterpart), including example sentences, synonyms and etc. To achieve this, we will need to provide the bot with a database of simplified/tradition character conversions. I am not sure how this can be achieved at the moment. Jamesjiao → T ◊ C 23:00, 6 October 2011 (UTC)

 * Serbo-Croatian is being maintained in sync and by a very small number of people, if not one or two. If one version is done, the other doesn't take long to do, examples, synonyms, "see also" is the hardest bit. Not sure bot can do it well if at all. --Anatoli 23:43, 6 October 2011 (UTC)

Chinese
Please never never use Chinese as a header. Don't make me block you, believe me when I say I don't want to. Mglovesfun (talk) 10:50, 29 September 2011 (UTC)

 * Whatever. You manipulate the rules and rule this place, even though you don't and don't want to understand anything written in there. 60.240.101.246 10:53, 29 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Whether I understand them or not, at least I respect them. Which is more than I can say for some editors. Mglovesfun (talk) 10:57, 29 September 2011 (UTC)

 * Of course comprehension doesn't matter. 就是你这样不懂装懂、自欺欺人、秉承官僚主义的人在这里让人大煞胃口地高视阔步、大摇大摆，才有如此荒谬和仅仅政治正确的有关中文条目的规则被制定出来，什么都冇知却肆意压制其他用户，导致最后是奉承拼音至上的巨魔横行，本来好好地可以被合并在一起的中文标题被分裂成不知多少个子标题，条目质量低劣而数量也停滞不前. 60.240.101.246 11:04, 29 September 2011 (UTC)

 * Mglovesfun is right. The decision to use standard headers was made collectively by many editors, including native speakers, many, including me were against it but we must follow. Whether you speak Chinese or not is irrelevant in this case. Please respect the rules. Your contributions are welcome but they must follow standards, otherwise you'll create work for others. I'm sure you will learn quickly if you try. --Anatoli 11:18, 29 September 2011 (UTC)

 * Here are nice tutorial User:Tooironic/Chinese entry basic, User:Tooironic/Chinese translation. Some other rules: About Sinitic languages.

 * I'm Wjcd BTW. Wiktionary really hasn't changed. The ridiculous rules are still in place and the Pinyinisation advocate is still actively present. 60.240.101.246 11:21, 29 September 2011 (UTC)

(after edit conflict) Welcome back! I know you have good knowledge but it takes a bit more patience and flexibility. Things do change but they have to follow a pattern. --Anatoli 11:25, 29 September 2011 (UTC)

 * As for the abc123/Engirst, he keeps avoiding all blocks but the pinyin entries have been standardised and patrols can delete his entries if they don't follow standards. He has changed a bit (a bit more cooperative) but he is now pushing his Chinglish entries, as you know. --Anatoli 11:28, 29 September 2011 (UTC)

 * The only solution is to get rid of all Pinyin entries (not permitted at zh/ja/ko.wikt). Same goes for Japanese Romaji (not permitted at zh/ja/ko.wikt) and Korean romanisations (not permitted at zh/ja/ko.wikt), but I rarely edit those so don't really care. Because Pinyin has orthography rules and under those rules, forms directly importing Latin script names, such as "Thames Hé" are actually considered acceptable. I get irritated when I see Pinyin sentences and articles. 60.240.101.246 11:34, 29 September 2011 (UTC)

 * That's an arguable point about pinyin. It all depends on the publisher or whoever uses it. Spacing, capitalisation, punctuation, even the actual tone marks and tone numbers are used rather incosistently but get better. Forms like "Thames Hé" do exist, for example when teaching Mandarin, person's or place names may not be taught in the first lessons (names are notoriously hard), so they will often be written in English - Tom, Jane, Mark, etc. even if the rest is entirely in Chinese characters. If they ARE written in hanzi, eg. as 汤姆, 珍, 马克, then it's only right to transcribe them as "Tāngmǔ", "Zhēn", "Mǎkè" in pinyin. Looks weird, I agree but pinyin is not a language. Here we transcribe each Chinese characters. "Thames Hé" is to match "Thames河", not "泰晤士河". For "泰晤士河" the correct pinyin is "Tàiwùshì hé". --Anatoli 23:20, 6 October 2011 (UTC)

 * I second what Tooironic says. Mglovesfun (talk) 10:32, 14 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Just take note that adjectives don't need to be preceded by "to be" (on Wiktionary, "to" is used for verbs) and we usually separate translations by semi-colons not commas . Thanks again for your contributions - I noticed you're going through a lot of my back log. :) ---> Tooironic 22:39, 14 October 2011 (UTC)
 * OK, although I think many Chinese adjectives function like verbs (書 貴 得要命) and that colons may be effective in separating out some less closely-related senses (as in 再來), but anyway.. 60.240.101.246 23:10, 14 October 2011 (UTC)
 * I think you mean commas? I get what you're saying, though - the line between verbs and adjectives in Chinese is often blurred - but either way we need to maintain consistency on Wiktionary in terms of the way we define parts of speech. ---> Tooironic 04:27, 15 October 2011 (UTC)

"men" as classifier
If "men" is a classifier, why not add that information to the definitions at the "men" entries? There's nothing there about it being a classifier right now. 71.66.97.228 07:44, 19 October 2011 (UTC)

 * I'd love to, but frankly, I'm quite confused by the format of character entries. The current format, with definition-containing "Translingual", and Japanese, Korean first, and then Mandarin, seemed to suggest that a Chinese character inherently has meanings, and that it's because of the inherent meanings which enabled them to be used in multiple languages, which is of course false. A Chinese character has no inherent meaning if it weren't associated with any language. It's only the representation of speech which provided them with meanings. Almost all Chinese characters were used originally to write some stage of Chinese, and so its coinage and usage fundamentally reflect how Chinese at that time was spoken. I used to edit character entries, but subsequent changes at 目 and 帅 had me puzzled. As a result, I'm confused as to whether the etymology I added to 字 really belonged to that page, because there's no "Chinese" section there, and the so-called "translingual etymology" appeared to suggest the character coinage was independent of language (as if all languages below pronounce the words "word" (字) and "child" (子) alike!). 60.240.101.246 10:27, 19 October 2011 (UTC)

We can only do our best in the "Translingual" section. Yes, the characters were also used by Koreans, Japanese, and Vietnamese, but they were mostly invented in China, by Chinese people, and usually had original meanings that are common across all four languages. Those are probably the definitions that should be placed under "Translingual," just to give the basics about the character and its basic meaning(s). But most of the focus should be on the definitions in the specific languages. So, any difficulty in dealing with the "Translingual" section would have no bearing at all, nor hinder any editor from adding accurate information to the definition in the Mandarin section at "men" stating that it is a classifier for languages (and similar things). 71.66.97.228 20:44, 19 October 2011 (UTC)

 * Well, not if they are subject to unexplained removal like this. 60.240.101.246 06:19, 20 October 2011 (UTC)

I have added this sense to the entry along with 2 quotations and have changed Connel Mackenzie's  to an  applying to the specific Canadian usage.

Specific individuals X–Z
We're not a Who's Who or a universal dramatis personae. US presidents and the person of Nikolai Gogol/Гоголь have been deleted. Do the following folks' names have any English wordness? —Michael Z. 2010-04-07 18:33 z
 * Redefine as given names/last names/cognomens or whatever applies. --Vahagn Petrosyan 18:39, 7 April 2010 (UTC)

 * Odd. I would have wanted to keep Gogol, at least, because authors' names are often used to represent the corpus of their work, or to refer to a specific work by that author.  Of the following, I have a personal preference to keep all the Classical names, but Xerxes is the only one I can support keeping on the basis of CFI.  It's a Biblical name (both Persian kings), and so appears in a well-known work, and one that is frequently translated into other languages.  I'm for keeping names like that, whether from myth, religion, or fairy tales that have lasted in the language for a very long time.  The name Zorro might qualify in this way, but it hasn't been around as long, so I could see either side.  --EncycloPetey 18:44, 7 April 2010 (UTC)

 * You mean using the author's name as a book citation? Every book, academic paper, or other publication can be cited by its author's name, or by just the title, author–year, author–title, title–year, ISBN, or some other conventional identifier. Likewise, any person's name can be used to refer to what they made, or said, or wrote. These are functions of names. But wouldn't including individual people's names on this basis lead to us becoming a who's who of authors or a catalogue of creative works? That's not what the dictionary is for. It would bury the tools of the languages under a tide of people and things. —Michael Z. 2010-04-08 17:18 z

 * No, I don't mean that. Nice diatribe, but you've misunderstood.  Also, please note that your arguments run counter to the practice of modern dictionaries like the AHD, which does include biographical entries.  They do it to an extreme I wouldn't care for us to follow, but I do feel that single-name elements can and should be clarified in a dictionary, at least to a degree that would allow a person to then locate an appropriate encyclopedia article about that individual. --EncycloPetey 19:12, 8 April 2010 (UTC)

 * AHD and many other popular dictionaries are meant to partially replace the need an expensive, bookshelf-sized household encyclopedia. Our readers already have the biggest encyclopedia at no cost, and they could keep it in their pocket. So we should make use of Wikipedia by linking, rather than emulate encyclopedic print dictionaries, or their aspects that come from the marketing department, by trying to inadequately replace bits of the encyclopedia. Let's look to “pure” dictionaries, like the OED.

 * I absolutely agree with your last. We should have an entry for the name Xerxes, and it should link to the Xerxes disambiguation page, which will always have a list of every biblical, historical, musical, cinematic, and video-game Xerxes worth mentioning. But I don't think the lexical definition of any term includes “died 212 BC” or “created in 1919 by pulp writer Johnston McCulley.” —Michael Z. 2010-04-08 20:19 z

 * I see, and will we be making lists of "pure" and "impure" dictionaries, so that we know which are OK and which are not? Will I need to place a big yellow star / red letter A / sackcloth and ashes on my copy of the AHD?  --EncycloPetey 20:40, 8 April 2010 (UTC)

 * Keep all. Most have useful translation sections. Improve others. SemperBlotto 07:19, 8 April 2010 (UTC)

 * I can add your and my names to the dictionary with useful translation sections. How does this relate to our CFI? —Michael Z. 2010-04-08 17:18 z
 * Well, for starters, no one is likely to come across names of any Wiktionarians outside of Wiktionary, so those names would fail on the criterion of "likely to come across them". Names of Wiktionarians are also not attested, but the names below are easily attested in many, many citations.  Semper skipped the obvious criteria, and went directly to pointing out additional utility of the entries. --EncycloPetey 19:12, 8 April 2010 (UTC)

 * I don't want to remove entries for names. I am trying to delete the so-called “definitions” which identify specific persons.

 * My name appears in my high-school yearbook, my phone directory, the credits for a few web-based works I contributed to, and in the front a publication I wrote. So someone is likely to come across it. If someone refers to these or writes about me, then it may be attested – perhaps I should see if it already is. You're saying that any person who's name is used three times in print should appear as a “sense” in the dictionary? Wikipedia has notability criteria for persons, and that's where articles about them appear. A dictionary should only include names. —Michael Z. 2010-04-08 20:19 z

 * You seem to be fascinated with the idea of setting up straw men for me to knock down. Instead of doing that, why not try to understand my position, rather than some imagined position no one has? --EncycloPetey 20:37, 8 April 2010 (UTC)

 * I'm trying to identify some principal under which we can include senses for individual persons. I don't think there is one. “Having useful translations,” or some kind of notability criteria aren't productive, because they would open up a free-for-all. —Michael Z. 2010-04-08 23:23 z

 * Keep all. Let's do a more productive work on creations, not deletions. --Anatoli 19:25, 8 April 2010 (UTC)

 * You can definitely translated names of films, books, TV series. Plus line one, all words in all languages. Why not Ghost, the film? Or Waterloo, the name of a song. Mglovesfun (talk) 20:00, 8 April 2010 (UTC)
 * That's why we have WT:BRAND. You can find the answer to your question there. --EncycloPetey 20:09, 8 April 2010 (UTC)

 * I believe physical objects fall under BRAND. Titles of creative works themselves aren't copyrighted, and I don't think BRAND applies to them. But while proper names are formed from words, they themselves are not words in the language. —Michael Z. 2010-04-08 23:23 z

 * One quotation for you, Mzajac:
 * 1882, John Stuart Mill, A System of Logic, Ratiocinative and Inductive:
 * But it is no part of the signification of the word John, that the father of the person so called bore the same name; nor even of the word Dartmouth, to be situated at the mouth of the Dart.
 * Single-word proper names are words. --Dan Polansky 11:32, 9 April 2010 (UTC)

 * (Please remember that we are not concerned with words as defined in phonology, orthography, or grammar, but of semantics, and more specifically as lexicological units, lexemes.)

 * But of course we have an entry for the proper name (“word”) John (“A male given name very popular since the Middle Ages”). But what's your point? Mill doesn't say that Wiktionary should have a definition line for each of ten thousand persons named John. —Michael Z. 2010-04-09 16:03 z
 * (<) Mzajac, you keep repeating that proper names are not words. My point is that you should stop repeating that. Some proper names are words. You want to exclude proper names from Wiktionary, and many language dictionaries agree with you in excluding proper names. They exclude proper names altogether: they have no entries for "Peter" and "London". I want Wiktionary to include some proper names, and so do other Wiktionarians. Repeating the falsity that all proper names are non-words is needless and unconvincing. --Dan Polansky 17:05, 9 April 2010 (UTC)

 * Now you're just mixing things up. Wiktionary absolutely should have entries for proper nouns like Peter and London, with these words defined. But it should not have have so-called “definitions” that represent specific persons and places like Peter (I, the Czar of Russia), or London (Ontario, pop. 450,000), and certainly not entries for proper names like Peter I of Russia and London, England. —Michael Z. 2010-04-10 05:51 z

Hmmm....I thought that we had already figured out how to deal with names. Every name is a word, and most words qualify for inclusion in Wiktionary. However, we define words, not describe their referents. In some cases, a specific referent is important enough to be briefly noted in the definition. However, generally, any personal name will not have more than one definition (i.e. "a given name"). Note that Mzajac is not arguing that these entries should be deleted, but rather some of their definitions. The entries should be kept, and their definitions pared down to what is appropriate. This allows for translations to be added. There may be some merit to having info about authors, but, if so, this would go somewhere besides the main namespace, perhaps in appendices. EP, you would do well to remember that AHD, and many other dictionaries, are stand-alone entities, whereas we are part of a collective group of reference materials. If the 'pedia has an article on an author, we would do well to utilize it and not duplicate, not in the interest of purity or some other nonsense, but in the interest of focus. -Atelaes λάλει ἐμοί 23:49, 8 April 2010 (UTC)

Keep all, provided they are attestable; none are sum of parts. Wiktionary should include in single-word entries attestable senses for specific entities. --Dan Polansky 11:32, 9 April 2010 (UTC)

 * Keep the Ancient Greek persons. Xenophanes isn't a "given name" of anybody except the philosopher, no English person is named so. --Makaokalani 14:31, 9 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Xenophanes is just a name, like John or Matt. The fact that we only know one Xenophanes does not qualitatively alter the type of word it is.  It does make that particular referent a bit special, and I agree that we should note the guy.  However, please think about the broader ramificiations.  Xenophon is similar, but we know of a few of them.  We know a bunch of Alexanders.  We need a consistent policy so we don't have to set goofy, arbitrary lines in the sand.  By giving a lexical definition ("a given name"), we have a policy which works for all names, regardless of their popularity.  By defining referents, we have a big mess.  -Atelaes λάλει ἐμοί 00:50, 10 April 2010 (UTC)

This may be a good time to review the relevant point from WT:NOT. We should relate our decisions and preferences to a Wiktionary principle whose essence hasn't changed since 2002. —Michael Z. 2010-04-09 16:45 z

 * 1) Wiktionary is not an encyclopedia, a genealogy database, or an atlas; that is, it is not an in-depth collection of factual information, or of data about places and people. Encyclopedic information should be placed in our sister project, Wikipedia. Wiktionary entries are about words. A Wiktionary entry should focus on matters of language and wordsmithing: spelling, pronunciation, etymology, translation, concept, usage, quotations, and links to related words.

I see no relevance of the quoted unvoted-on non-policy WT:NOT to the discussed subject.

An identification of a specific entity on its sense line (London—The capital city of the United Kingdom and of England, situated near the mouth of the River Thames in southeast England) is per se not encyclopedic. Most dictionaries that contain "London" at all also contain some dedicated sense lines for specific cities. I have hyperlinks to at least two such dictionaries (see and MWO:London).

I would like to see a hyperlink to a dictionary that has "London" as "a place name", failing to include specific entities. I know of no such a dictionary. --Dan Polansky 17:29, 9 April 2010 (UTC)

 * The relevance of all pages that have been used without challenge for longer than most current contributors have been here is that they provide a stable core to enterprise. Very few policy and guideline pages have been voted on, but they have provided guidance. As I understand it, WT:NOT was an effort to make it clear that Wiktionary was not to become a short-attention-span encyclopedia.
 * Why would WMF have established a separate project duplicative of WP when it has such a strong aversion to the forking of projects?
 * I do not understand how we can avoid having either multiple senses for placenames (Cairo large city on the Nile river in Eqypt" and "small city near the confluence of the Ohio and Mississoppi Rivers in Illinois") or a proliferation of placenames of a multi-part form (Cairo, Egypt; Cairo, Illinois). I do not understand whether there would be any notability limits on placenames. I do not understand what determines what the right content would be for all the placenames that would seem to be includable under the gazetteer concept of defining toponyms with reference to each of the individuals sharing the toponym.
 * Until someone troubles to address these questions satisfactorily, the discussion of toponyms is quite idle. There are relatively simple ways of drawing bright lines between included and excluded terms which I commend to the attention of all:
 * No proper noun words
 * Proper noun words only to the extent that they have a sense that is not solely a reference to an individual referent.
 * Proper noun words qua words (eg, attestable), but no specific individual referents.
 * Proper nouns that meet notability criteria that we decide and maintains.
 * Proper nouns that meet notability criteria that someone else (eg, WP, Google Earth, ISO, UN, the Post offices of the various nations) decides and maintains.
 * Proper nouns referring to individuals in specific classes (eg, nations, subdivisions of nations, groupings of nations, organizations of the preceding, vernacular place names, natural features, geographic regions), each class having its own criteria.
 * Our consensus with respect to toponyms seems to be shifting from 2 to 3, reflecting the desire to provide etymologies and translations and transliterations for them. Going beyond toponymic words qua words to include senses relating to individual referents requires a dramatic change in our concepts of inclusion before we even get to specific criteria for inclusion for all or any of the classes of toponyms that might be included. That no advocate has taken the trouble to do even this superficial analysis itself condemns the proposals for any kind of toponym inclusion. DCDuring TALK 19:02, 9 April 2010 (UTC)

 * What you are saying about where our consensus is shifting is false.

 * WT:NOT is not a policy.

 * Just send these things which you think have a consensual support to a vote, and let us see. --Dan Polansky 09:46, 10 April 2010 (UTC)

 * WT:CFI is a policy. So is WT:About given names and surnames. Okay?

 * WT:NOT is also linked from the CFI, so it carries some weight. It is a long-lived and fairly stable page, which is an indicator of consensus.WT:NOT deserves to be made a policy think tank. —Michael Z. 2010-04-11 03:01 z
 * (Uh, the given names and surnames page is not a policy. It's a policy think tank that I put together a few weeks ago hoping someone would flesh it out a bit and it could become a policy. The "policy think tank" status doesn't require consensus at all, or I made a mistake putting that label on the page.) --Yair rand 03:16, 11 April 2010 (UTC)

 * I must have overlooked the memo. Anyway, 1. 2 looks good at first glance. Remember that the given name–surname pattern is not universal. —Michael Z. 2010-04-11 07:51 z

 * Delete all. I don't know why we have all these proper nouns anyway, they're all much better defined in Wikipedia and if something isn't in Wiktionary you get a list with the term as defined in Wikipedia along with other variations. Why do we need Harrisburg, Tower of London, or even London (England) itself?  Not for the translations of London, which all seem to be "London". We have Seattle, but not Tacoma or Redmond. We're not Wikipedia, so let's not act like a second rate Wikipedia.  Facts707 13:59, 13 May 2010 (UTC)

 * Re 'Not for the translations of London, which all seem to be "London".': You should do some fact-checking in the London entry.

RFD result
Xerxes

Two Persian and one Armenian kings.

 * Should the first two carry a biblical label?
 * Yes, becuase the average Engish speaker is unlikely to encounter the name outside of that context or an historical context (for which there might need to also be a tag). Its context of use is therefore restricted. --EncycloPetey 20:09, 8 April 2010 (UTC)

 * Hm. Historical labels a term or sense that is obsolete, but still used for its historical referent, or perhaps to add historical flavour. But it's not as if we have developed a new term replacing the name Xerxes, or as if Xerxes the Second had become obsolete in favour of the modern Zerxo 2000. The sense line doesn't define the name Xerxes, but indicates a particular person. Our diachronic labels like historical can't be applied the same way. —Michael Z. 2010-04-08 20:30 z

 * If you think the CFI allows us to include Xerxes of Armenia, then doesn't it also require “definitions” for Xerxes of Commagene,  Xerxes (Klaus Lunde) the electropop musician,  XerxesDZB soccer team,  Xerxes (Dune) from Brian Herbert's Legends of Dune, XERXES the computer from the game  System Shock 2, Xerxes from  Little Zizou, Xerxes Break from  Pandora Hearts, and anything else listed in  Xerxes? —Michael Z. 2010-04-08 19:54 z

 * A biblical label is silly. There is nothing specifically biblical about the Xerxes'.  As I see it, we should only have one definition.  Whereas Wikipedia is defining the people, we're defining the name.  We should have one definition which might read, "a given name of Persian origin, notably held by two Persian kings."  We should also have a link to Xerxes, so readers can find out about the people, if they want.  -Atelaes λάλει ἐμοί 20:28, 8 April 2010 (UTC)

 * The combined definition for both Biblical kings works for me so long as they're actually spelled the same in the Hebrew/Greek sources. That isn't always the case.  Different spellings in different sources means different etymologies. --EncycloPetey 20:33, 8 April 2010 (UTC)

 * I guess I fail to see how that's relevant. They're spelled the same in English.  If we were going to single out any language and ask about similar spelling, it would be Old Persian, not Hebrew or Greek.  However, English speakers use the same name, with the same spelling, to refer to both kings, and that should suffice for the English entry.  -Atelaes λάλει ἐμοί 20:39, 8 April 2010 (UTC)

 * If they have different etymologies, then there will be two Proper noun sections under separate Ety 1 and Ety2 headers, so a unified definition line would not be physically possible. --EncycloPetey 20:42, 8 April 2010 (UTC)

 * Ah, yes. Good point.  -Atelaes λάλει ἐμοί 21:17, 8 April 2010 (UTC)

 * Well, so far we do put a biblical label on names of people in the Bible, so I don't see why we wouldn't put this on the Xerxes. Or is biblical for names only used in a biblical context? Regarding separate etymology sections, that's only needed if the names are unrelated. A single etymology can include notes about exceptions or differences for particular senses. —Michael Z. 2010-04-08 23:15 z

 * Huh? Why would a single etymology section be used when there are two completely different etymologies?  We're still talking hypothetically, but in this instance the issue concerns two definitions.  If those two definitions derive from separate word origins, then there is not an exception to be discussed, there is an entirely separate etymology to be discussed.  Adn when the two definitions in question are "this Persian king" or "that Persian king", it becomes ridiculuous to try to explain that clearly in the etymology section itself; you end up essentially repeating the definitions in the etymology just to get them to match up with the appropriate referent.  The situation gets even worse if one of the two names has alternative forms (which is not at all unusual for Biblical names), or if the two individual names have different sets of alternative forms.  Hopefully, we won't have to worry about any of that, but it is a very real possibility. --EncycloPetey 15:25, 9 April 2010 (UTC)

 * Um, I thought I wrote that a single etymology section could be used when there are not two completely different etymologies. Can you point out which Xerxes's name is unrelated to which? Or is this all academic? —Michael Z. 2010-04-09 16:06 z

 * Since no one more competent than I has done the check, I'll do it now... Yes, in fact there are two entirely separate etymologies with different Ancient Greek origins, different Greek translations, and presumably different Persian sources, but I don't have the resources to check the Persian.  The king of Persia in the book of Esther is Xerxes in the NIV (Ahasuerus in the Authorised Version; gen. form  in the Septuagint).  But in Daniel 9:1, the "father" of Darius is a different Xerxes (NIV; the AV has Ahasuerus), and the Septuagint has gen. form .  Note also that neither one of these is the king known as Xerxes II.  --EncycloPetey 19:42, 9 April 2010 (UTC)

 * So which English Xerxes in Wiktionary comes from which etymology? —Michael Z. 2010-04-10 05:38 z

 * That's debated historiclly among Bible scholars. The passage in Daniel refers to "Darius son of Xerxes", although Darius was actually the father of Xerxes I and Wikipedia lists Darius' father as Hystaspes.  If this is assumed to be an error of reversed relationship in the Daniel text, then the Xerxes in Daniel is Xerxes I.  The Xerxes in Esther has traditionally been assumed to be Xerxes I, but this is not at all certain.  The Greek spelling in the Septuagint implies that this Xerxes is the king known to archaeologists as Artaxerxes I, rather than Xerxes I or II. --EncycloPetey 05:56, 10 April 2010 (UTC)

 * Thanks for the patient explanation. So Xerxes I and II may be the same person, or are they known from other sources? Maybe this requires separate definitions for the biblical and archaeological Xerxes, allowing that they may or may not be the same. —Michael Z. 2010-04-10 23:21 z

 * Xerxes II is definitely a different person and is not either of the Biblical kings known by that name. Xerxes I (the Great) is the king currently famous for his (wildly historically inaccurate) portrayal in the move 300 (based ever-so-loosely on one of the most significant military campaigns in history).  By contrast, Xerxes II reigned only 45 days before being assassinated, leaving him little time to accomplish anything.  --EncycloPetey 03:12, 11 April 2010 (UTC)

Zorro

Has a generic sense, I think. Added this sense ("A daring and mysterious avenger") with three citations. Equinox ◑ 19:51, 7 April 2010 (UTC)

 * Perhaps. The good citations lead me to believe it means something more specific, like “an avenger with a secret identity, who appears at dramatic moments to save the day and vex his evil enemy, and disappears again.” Is it an encyclopedic reference that only has meaning if you've seen or read Zorro? At least it doesn't require a horse and mask. —Michael Z. 2010-04-08 19:45 z

Zhukov

 * It might be explained in a usage note, Wikipedia link, or in the definition ( A surname,notably of...) Transliterations like Zhukov are a headache. How can an English word be a Russian surname? --Makaokalani 14:31, 9 April 2010 (UTC)

 * So what is the criteria for notability sufficient to be mentioned so? How do we mention the person or place if there are six of them, or 26, or 106? They're already listed at Zhukov (disambiguation) (27 notable Zhukovs) or  Paris (disambiguation) (100+), and Wiktionary is WT:NOT paper, so we can just link there.

 * Yeah, names themselves aren't exactly normal words that belong to a language. That's why onomastics and lexicography are separate disciplines. Maybe the spellings of names belong to languages: we can attest Zhukov as an English form of this name in English publications, and in telephone directories, passports, and legal documents. —Michael Z. 2010-04-10 01:08 z
