Talk:teinipeili

teinipeili
Finnish: "A selfie taken through a mirror, especially one that is published in the internet."

Nominated on 26 April 2014.

What about Finnish teinipeili and meitsie? Can you find the results on books or on groups? --88.251.11.42 05:32, 27 April 2014 (UTC)
 * Teinipeili (lit. "teen mirror") has been around for years and finding three quotes in newspapers would be a piece of cake. First internet appearances of meitsie seem to be from January this year, and thus it does not fulfil our "spanning over one year" -criteria.--Hekaheka (talk) 17:53, 29 April 2014 (UTC)
 * Turkish word 'sanalgı' has been around for years and you may find three quotes in newspapers but it was deleted. Is it not same with 'teinipeili'?--12:46, 1 May 2014 (UTC)
 * If they were actually nominated, someone might check. Chuck Entz (talk) 05:45, 27 April 2014 (UTC)

No quotations in the entry, no quotations in this RFV. Please add quotations or this will be deleted. --Dan Polansky (talk) 12:19, 10 January 2015 (UTC)

could you add some citations, please? I couldn't find any on Google Books or Issuu, and I only found one citation on Google Scholar, but you have better access to Finnish newspapers and the like than I do. - -sche (discuss) 01:50, 30 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Allright, I'll get the quotes. Meanwhile, some numbers. Teinipeli gets 50,000+ Google hits in a direct search. English is at least 100 times as big as Finnish as measured by the number of speakers. Thus, an English word relatively as frequently used should get at least 5 M hits. --Hekaheka (talk) 07:25, 30 January 2015 (UTC)

Now quoted, IMHO. , do you agree? --Hekaheka (talk) 11:08, 31 January 2015 (UTC)
 * @User:Hekaheka: note that does not work lately for some reason; it did not ping me.
 * I see three quotations at teinipeili, formatted accoring to WT:ELE, providing the date and identifying the source. I do not know whether they are from permanently recorded media (WT:ATTEST), but I do not contradict the claim. The safe core of permanently recorded media is Google books and Usenet, which they are not from, but again, they may still be permanently recorded and lie outside of the core. What makes you think they are permanently recorded? --Dan Polansky (talk) 14:04, 1 February 2015 (UTC)
 * No. 1 is a university dissertation published both in book format, of which ISBN is provided, and in pdf-format for which the URL is provided in the quotation
 * No. 2 is from the blog series of the, the official guardian of the purity of Finnish language. Their (electronic only!) dictionary is to Finnish what OED is to English. They archive permanently everything they publish.
 * No. 3 is from the pages of YLE, the national broadcasting company. They, too, archive everything that they have published in the electronic era, and they have also made a lot of their earlier productions available through internet, see here: The pages are in Finnish, but if you type "teinipeili" in the search window you get links to the YLE articles in which the word is used.
 * --Hekaheka (talk) 21:00, 1 February 2015 (UTC)
 * As for durability, I am not really sure, but I think it is fine with me; any other input?
 * However, the following is a mention, not use: 'This type of picture may be called "selfie" but also teinipeilikuva (lit. "teen mirror image") or more shortly teinipeili.' --Dan Polansky (talk) 13:54, 14 March 2015 (UTC)
 * True, it is a mention, but it is a mention in a linguistic article in the e-mag of Kotus. The purpose of the quotes in RFV process is to prove that the word exists. What would do it better than this type of an article? Anyway, I have added one more quote and there are three uses. I would very much prefer to keep this "mention" as well. --Hekaheka (talk) 05:04, 22 March 2015 (UTC)

Talk:meitsie

meitsie
Finnish: "selfie"

Nominated on 26 April 2014.

Hekaheka said in April 2014: First internet appearances of meitsie seem to be from January this year, and thus it does not fulfil our "spanning over one year" -criteria

Three quotations are in the entry but they are not from durably archived sources. --Dan Polansky (talk) 12:19, 10 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Define "durably archived", and explain to me in which sense they are worse than the quotes provided for "selfie". The quotes for meitsie are from the pages of three well-established newspapers. --Hekaheka (talk) 07:30, 30 January 2015 (UTC)
 * If they're print newspapers, they're durably archived. —Aɴɢʀ (talk) 09:36, 30 January 2015 (UTC)
 * I remember cases where we have accepted postings from discussion groups. All but one of the current quotes for "selfie" are from non-print sources, one even appears to be a transcript of a radio programme. All three newspapers I quoted are print newspapers but the quotes are from their web pages. --Hekaheka (talk) 09:18, 31 January 2015 (UTC)
 * @User:Hekaheka: The safe core of "permanently recorded media" (WT:ATTEST) is Google books and Usenet. Usenet is a collection of discussion groups. Not any and all discussion groups on the Internet are considered permanently recorded media.
 * Can you please format the quotations at meitsie as per WT:ELE, especially providing dates, author, and work title? --Dan Polansky (talk) 14:08, 1 February 2015 (UTC)

Now done, sorry for the delay. --Hekaheka (talk) 15:17, 27 February 2015 (UTC)
 * @User:Hekaheka It is now apparent that the quotations in meitsie do not meet the "spanning at least a year" requirement of WT:ATTEST. Furthermore, the quotations seem to be mentions, not uses: "Santtu Toivonen has claimed the fatherhood of meitsie. First, he asked for proposals from his Facebook friends. Other suggestions he got included omis, omakas, itsi, itsari, itsukka, meikkis, meitsis, meitzu, peilaus and peilitsu" talks about the word and mentions other words that could have been used instead of that word. Similarly, 'I wonder if "meitsie" will become to primarily mean such self portraits which the speaker doesn't take quite seriously himself…' seems to talk about what the word is going to mean rather than using the word to convey meaning. --Dan Polansky (talk) 22:02, 27 February 2015 (UTC)
 * This is a new word, still chiefly used in speech and in non-permanently recorded media. Therefore, it is not so odd if majority of permanently recorded uses are from articles that discuss the word itself. I would turn your argument upside down: if media such as the country's leading newspaper  and the homepages of the guardian of Finnish language  publish an article about it, it is most likely used. Also, 74,000 Google hits and hundreds of hits in picture search for e.g. "meitsie 2015" must count as something. --Hekaheka (talk) 05:25, 28 February 2015 (UTC)
 * Further, you may want to reflect what the word "or" means in our definition of attestation criteria:
 * clearly widespread use, or
 * use in permanently recorded media, conveying meaning, in at least three independent instances spanning at least a year

--Hekaheka (talk) 05:34, 28 February 2015 (UTC)
 * In the previous paragraph (including "it is not so odd if majority of permanently recorded uses are from articles that discuss the word itself"), you are arguing against WT:ATTEST, claiming that WT:ATTEST is too strict, right? I am not convinced by the arguments; we should not include emerging neologisms at any and all costs; they should meet WT:ATTEST, IMHO.
 * As for clearly widespread use, my position is that "meitsie" is a Finnish neologism that is not in clearly widespread use, and that "clearly widespread use" item of WT:ATTEST is for such obvious cases as "dog" or "city".
 * Maybe the hot word lovers will come here and arbitrarily declare this to be a hot word, and thereby defy most of attestation requirements (durably archived, used rather than mentioned, spanning a year); I don't know.
 * One more thing. Citations:meitsie does not get deleted even if this RFV fails. I have copied your quotations there to prevent their accidental lost. --Dan Polansky (talk) 08:42, 28 February 2015 (UTC)

@User:Dan Polansky I added three new quotes, which to my understanding will do the job. --Hekaheka (talk) 14:49, 3 March 2015 (UTC)
 * The first three quotations in meitsie seems to be uses, not mentions, so they meet this requirement of CFI. I make no comment about their being durably archived. --Dan Polansky (talk) 13:58, 14 March 2015 (UTC)

There have been no new comments within a month. Shall i consider this "passed"? --Hekaheka (talk) 07:38, 29 April 2015 (UTC)

Fear of floods. Only in word lists. The one citation given has poor grammar and appears to be a vanity-published poem by a subliterate writer. Equinox ◑ 20:58, 7 January 2015 (UTC)
 * "Th eother" and "learing" were typos introduced by an editor. They weren't found in the original text. It's "learning to read was thy great antlophobia."

bathmophobia
Fear of stairs/slopes. Only in word lists. The WP article only cites a word list. Equinox ◑ 21:14, 7 January 2015 (UTC)

 * It is my position that the likes of "bathmophobia (fear of stairs)" and "bathmophobia, which is a fear of stairs or steep slopes" should not count for attestation. Or they should count to show the meaning, but should not count to the list of quotations in which the word is pressed to do a semantic job on its own. However, there is no consensus for this position, AFAIK; WT:CFI supports 'They raised the jib (a small sail forward of the mainsail) in order to get the most out of the light wind' as fine, which I don't. --Dan Polansky (talk) 13:13, 10 January 2015 (UTC)

An IP tried to remove the Italian section with the edit comment "please don't be silly: this word DOES NOT EXIST". It may not be the normal or preferred form, but does it actually not exist? I found this, but I don't know this dictionary very well, so I don't know if they include as dialects what we consider to be separate languages, and I hardly speak Italian at all (it's only a mention, anyway). There seem to be Italian Google Books hits, but I'll leave it to others who speak Italian to decide if they're applicable, and whether it merits context tags.

inb4

Etymology
From in before. It originated on 4Chan: on threads that users thought would be locked, they would comment " before the lock", or "I got a comment before the thread locked." Before then got abbreviated independently into B4 or b4.

Usage notes
For the most part inb4 is interchangeable syntactically with before, but only as a conjuction. It's rarely used with gerunds (as a preposition): Position in a sentence inb4 is sometimes used in forums as a response to anticipate or comment on an action that might be perceived as incorrect by others, offering guidance or suggestions in a non-judgmental manner.
 * Conjunction + Clause:
 * Preposition + Infinitive:
 * Preposition + Infinitive:
 * inb4 is usually found at the start of a clause, most commonly at the start of a sentence.
 * When used in mid-sentence, it may simply be an abbreviation of "phrasal verb ending in in + before". For example:
 * Despite separating the particle in from its verb get that forms a phrasal verb, the sentence still retains its original meaning despite the use of inb4.
 * Because inb4, when used with its original meaning, works as a whole expression, in right before inb4 is attestable. An example using the same sentence:
 * Here inb4 is being used as a conjunction to separate two independent clauses: "Get your votes in" and "inb4 the poll is closed". It can also be used to separate depended clauses.
 * Here inb4 is being used as a conjunction to separate two independent clauses: "Get your votes in" and "inb4 the poll is closed". It can also be used to separate depended clauses.
 * Here inb4 is being used as a conjunction to separate two independent clauses: "Get your votes in" and "inb4 the poll is closed". It can also be used to separate depended clauses.
 * For example, if a new and amateur user posts a sincere question about "X" in a forum where it's well known that "X" is bad, they are sure to receive hateful comments that the user probably won't even understand because they are inexperienced on the topic. Before that happens, one could reply with "inb4" answering their question in a non-judgmental way while letting them know that it's frowned upon to say that.

 * [Second storyteller:] He ran after [them], and beat [them]. [He had lost control of himself.]
 * [Principal storyteller:] He beat [his wives], he beat his wives without restraint. [The chief allowed his anger to show before all the people]. The women ran, [and] he ran after[ them], striking them repeatedly: TUK! TUK! TUK! [resounded the blows] "Ow! ow! ow!" [the women shrieked]. [He abandoned all dignity in his fit of jealous rage].
 * [Second storyteller:] Meanwhile they had killed [the women's lover]!

 * 1)  he/she is executed for witchcraft
 * Mainxakonaha.
 * [He] was executed [for witchcraft] (lit., everyone struck him [down]).

Usage notes

 * In the story of the "Caiman Spirit" (Yakaojokuma), human beings in ancient times create jealousy, possessiveness, and stinginess for the first time. A chief who already has two wives takes two additional wives, and then neglects the first two in favor of the new ones. The two neglected wives feel intense jealousy, and decide to take a lover – who happens to be a fearsome caiman spirit being. The chief learns of the women's love affair, and experiences intense jealousy in turn. In the excerpt above, the chief exhibits appalling behavior, completely losing self-control and publicly striking his wives (a spectacle that would disgrace any chief, and that one does not see in actual Wauja daily life). This aspect of the story serves as a cautionary tale of what happens when people give themselves over to feelings of jealousy and possessiveness.
 * The suffix –taitsa describes actions that are repeated, excessive, immoderate, unrestrained, outrageous, disproportionate, extreme, or uncalled for. In the narrative excerpt above, mainxawi (he hit them) becomes mainxataitsawi (he beat them repeatedly and without restraint).
 * The term mainxakona (mainxa + collective suffix -kona) is used only in reference to witchcraft executions. In practice, only men are executed for witchcraft.

Please don't go. I know what it's like to feel unwelcome at times. But I think that if we let incivility drive us away, then the responsible parties will never have to acknowledge the impact of their behaviour, and nothing will change. -Cloudcuckoolander (talk) 09:47, 26 September 2014 (UTC)
 * I have also felt unwelcome at times and you have inspired me to take the same route as yourself. Pass a Method (talk) 12:21, 27 September 2014 (UTC)

requests
There seems to be an aversion to including more requests in the English request section. People think of the request section as a place to solicit words that people actually desire to know. It’s not supposed to be a to‐do list that lets the users know which valid words are not yet included. I’m tempted to quit requesting words, and since it’s improbable that the page will ever really be cleaned up, the action may be long‐term. Plus, I dislike English, so requesting more English words is illogic. --Romanophile (talk) 01:08, 3 October 2014 (UTC)

"ASS"

 * 1. Test edits to see if anybody would soon notice my vandalism. I thought that if I vandalised articles that only I worked on, nobody would (soon) notice.
 * 2. Boredom and lack of respect for the community. --Romanophile (talk) 13:20, 2 December 2014 (UTC)
 * 1. Since you're not an autopatroller (for good reason, apparently), all your edits are listed in Recent changes as needing to be patrolled. That means those of us who patrol recent changes will see it, if we have time to check thoroughly.
 * 2. How about respect for the people who use the dictionary?
 * If you're tired of contributing, take a break- don't take it out on the dictionary. I routinely block people for doing what you did there. Chuck Entz (talk) 14:52, 2 December 2014 (UTC)

 * I thought that I was one already, but that’s O.K. Even if I never vandalised, I feel more secure when somebody else is reviewing my edits. As for respecting our readers…hmm, I could, but I don’t expect people to read the entries that I create. I create them because I feel that the project is incomplete and that they must be documented somewhere. But to answer your question, I’m not going to obstinately argue for my right to vandalize, so you could say that yes I will ‘respect’ the readers in this fashion. --Romanophile (talk) 16:39, 2 December 2014 (UTC)
 * That'll teach me to post messages when I'm in a hurry. You actually are an autopatroller. Your edit showed up because an IP marked it for deletion: people do read your entries. Even if you add entries for your own reasons (which is perfectly ok), what you did was completely against those, too. Whether you respect the community or not, whether you respect the readers or not, have some respect for the dictionary and for what you're doing- if you're not going to do it right, don't do it.

Scots Wiktionary
I don't know too much about the Incubator, but I see that you had made some edits to the Scots Wiktionary there. I want to ask you if you know why entries there are all written mostly in English? I mean it even has the word "English", "Etymology", "the", and other things, that are not used in Scots. The term for English in Scots is Inglis. So why? Is it a rule on Incubator to write in English first for all the stuff besides definitions themselves, or is it just ignorance of the language by users? Rædi Stædi Yæti {- skriv til mig -} 04:29, 15 December 2014 (UTC)

 * I don’t recall making this strange edit, but maybe my memory is serving me poorly again. I’ve never seen anybody create a page by reversion, which is very strange. And I cannot I find any other contributions by the I.P. that I (supposedly) reverted. The fact that this account has only one edit, which is old, and that it was a reversion should indicate that I never had any serious interest in this project. My knowledge of Scots is limited at best. --Romanophile (talk) 05:47, 15 December 2014 (UTC)

Romanophile’s editing philosophy
Since I feel that my intents aren’t always clear from my edits, and I desire to comprehend myself more, I feel obligated to outline my editing philosophy. But for brevity, it can be summarized as this: everything has to be perfect.

Much of my work is copied from other Wikis, so as a result, I’m obligated to gives thanks to the source in my edit summaries. But I also conduct some of my own original research. I look on Google Books and sometimes Wikisource to confirm terms from dead languages.

I must always document Italic and specifically Romance words. If it is an alternative form, then I must document it. If it is a non‐canonical word, then I must document it also. I normally don’t encourage myself to include words from language unrelated to Italic, but sometimes I still do, but usually only to a minor extent. In contrast to Italic entries, everything must be as complete as possible. If I know that the term exists, but I’m unsure how to define it, I should include the section with a tag requesting a definition.

For Italic sections, everything has to be as perfect as possible. If there exists an etymology, then it must be complete (exceptions include alternative forms and non‐canonical forms). Every ascendant must be included, even hypothetical words. So for example, a French etymology for a typical French term should include its Middle French ascendant, the Old French one, the Latin one or ones, the Proto‐Italic one (or ones), and finally the Proto‐Indo‐European one or ones. (Currently, there is no widely accepted ascendant of Proto‐Indo‐European.) If an original attestation date exists, it should be included, but for inherited terms the history should say « atestiguado (en [x]) desde 0000 ». Cognates, particularly from related languages, may be mentioned, but I usually obligate myself to do this if I am copying an existent etymology that mentions cognates.

Pronunciations, like etymologies, should be complete. Since I’m not an expert phonologist, I obligate myself to use pronunciations from other Wikis instead. Although I can read an IPA spelling, I consider it dangerous to create my own. Nevertheless, existent pronunciations may be modified with parentheses. Any pronunciation file should of course be included. Homophones, likewise, are obligatory if existent (as in the case of modern French, they usually are).

Alternative orthographies and variants should be included, but if it’s an extremely obscure form, then I don’t usually consider it worth mentioning. Archaic Romanian orthography vacillates between diacritics and the absence thereof, but I like to include the diacritical forms because they’re less likey to be mistakes. I feel uneasy including those sans diacritics since it’s possible that they existed due to typographical limitations. But then again, our own project includes informal forms such as coeur, cliche and jalapeno, so perhaps including them is not a terrible idea. But again, if it’s extremely rare, then it might be acceptable to intentionally leave it out.

Plurals and inflected forms should be included when they’re available. If the noun happens to be uncountable, I could just add a usage note saying such.

Definitions, the most important feature of any good dictionary, should likewise be complete. So I should list synonyms, including dialectal ones, in order to make the definition comprehensible to everybody who desires to read it. Obsolete forms and obsolete words generally shouldn’t be used, but there exist some exceptions: 1. if the entire language is an antiquated version of the modern equivalent, and 2. if the word or sense per se is obsolete. Hypernyms (especially for foreign languages), hyponyms, antonyms and synonyms should be included and not absent. Wikcionario permits cataloguing these terms underneath the relevant senses (which I like).

Currently, I’m not sure what to do with related terms since «derivados» could imply that they came from the word, which is not always true, but if I feel it necessary I can just include them in the «véase también» sections.

Wikipedia links should be included, but usually only for nouns. Giving them to verbs, adjects and so on would be strange.

Conjugation is admittedly not a high priority of mine since 1. they can be rather time consuming to design and 2. I don’t always have access to a reliable conjugation. Currently, only Spanish verbal forms have been prioritised, but every other verbal form must be included manually. Likewise, creating entries for all non‐canonical forms is not a priority of mine, but if the entry per se includes at least one lemma word in an Italic language, then the non‐canonical forms must be included for the sake of completion.

Criticism is welcome. --Romanophile (talk) 22:15, 11 January 2015 (UTC)

Good language vs. bad language
There is a big continuum of what is considered good language. One on side there are those who think that only what is specifically laid out in grammars is good, and that terms not found in dictionaries don’texist. These people are usually uninvolved in linguistics.

Then on the other side there are the hippies, usually people involved in sociolinguistics, who think that everything a person uses is correct. You could incorporate farts into your phonemic inventory and they would say “of course it’s correct, it’s just Romanophile’s English”.

As for your Portuguese, your spelling skills are above the Brazilian average, and your vocabulary is pretty good, but your grammar still needs improvement. — Ungoliant (falai) 02:31, 6 May 2015 (UTC)

I think I improved/matured on Simple English wiktionary
, on Simple English wiktionary I've managed to edit for a while now without having significant problems.

Do my contributions there look better than my ones here to you? PaulBustion87 (talk) 10:13, 17 May 2015 (UTC)

 * I’m not very familiar with simple English or the policies (assuming that there are any) over there, but from the recent edits that I’ve seen, I do notice a few inconsistencies between your modifications and those of the (assuming again) regulars. For starters, the defs read more like something from a normal dictionary than ones for Simple English. ‘A circumcision is’ would be redundant here, but there it’s obligatory. I can’t say much else there. Irrespective of that, I do have some general advice: You need to avoid burning bridges; just take a break. I myself would feel pretty embarrassed if I claimed that I was leaving only to come crawling back in a few hours. If you are going to make some potentially questionable edits, it’s best to make but a few of them (if any), or simply contact a administrator to discuss it in advance. The safest way to avoid becoming obstructed is to simply go with the flow. If you dislike a practice, you can discuss it and maybe it will be permuted, or maybe you will learn why the current one is superior and agree to it. --Romanophile (talk) 10:56, 17 May 2015 (UTC)

For example, Equinox criticized me for insisting that only men could be rapists, in my latest edit to the rape entry, I made it more clear that women could also be rapists, . I also in the pedophilia entry was criticized by Equinox for arguing on focusing on the medical definition of the term, which is sexual attraction by adults either to only prepubescent children or to both prepubescent and early pubescent children, and he said I should focus on real world use, which views it as sex against any child under some arbitrary chronological age, such as 15 years or 18 years, and I gave up pushing my viewpoint and decided to focus on real world use and removed the medical definition, . I also was criticized for being hyper-specific in my editing by Equinox, and I dropped my hyper specific insistence on terms like "mostly or only" and "primarily or exclusively" in the geronotophilia, hebephilia, and teliophilia entries,, , . I also dropped my hyper specific wording from the British Empire and Anglo-Egyptian Sudan entries. , . Are those improvements? PaulBustion87 (talk) 18:32, 21 May 2015 (UTC)

Obsolete Romanian forms

 * :, , , , , , . -- Romanophile ♞ (contributions) 11:10, 25 February 2016 (UTC)
 * Aha, now I see! I thought you had some kind of acient Romanian dictionary :-) Keep up the good work! --Robbie SWE (talk) 11:12, 25 February 2016 (UTC)
 * These forms actually come from a weird era of Romanian history (mid to late 19th century) when some of the elites and scholars, having relatively recently "rediscovered" the linguistic identity of Romanian within the last century or so, went on a spree of trying to hyper-Latinize as much of the existing language as possible. This was the time when thousands of words were added from French, Italian, and literary Latin (which was okay since it was aimed at modernizing the language with more technical terms, which stuck around) but a few took it even further, and attempted to create a new orthography for much of the existing inherited Latin-based vocab. They sought to purge it of influences they deemed foreign, like some of the diphthongs like -oa-, which was attributed partly to Slavic influence, and added a final -u to masculine or neuter nouns, which normally appears only in the definite articulation or colloquial speech, or presumably in older, pre-written Romanian. The aim was to make it look somewhat like an Italian language, or perhaps to create clearer visual connections to the other Romance languages. Needless to say, this orthography never really took off as most found it a bit ridiculous. So I guess while it is fair to list and call them "obsolete" forms, it kind of implies that they were actually just older, but normal and commonly used forms of existing words at the time, which isn't precisely accurate. Like for listed as an obsolete variant of ... some people might get the impression that the diphthong there arose relatively recently, in the last couple of hundred years as the shift to a Latin script happened, evolving from the earlier mole. Which isn't quite true. Yes, at some point in the deep past, such as well before the first written records of Romanian in 1521, there probably was a form like that, and also forms where the final -u was normally a part of a word (like  in the above example, even though  in particular is a learned borrowing or neologism added to the language from French in the 1800s). But the ones I'm talking about in this post are relatively modern creations, or at least modifications of existing words, that never gained much currency in common usage. Word dewd544 (talk) 00:10, 7 June 2017 (UTC)
 * Very insightful, thank you for bringing this up! I've been thinking along the same lines: how should we treat these so called "obsolete" forms considering that they were never really naturalised in the language? I'm convinced that this tendency is not exclusive for Romanian (wondering if for instance Portuguese isn't similar in this respect, thinking of actor vs. ator, where the former seems to be a revised orthographic version of the latter naturalised word). I guess for now the only place remotely close to being correct is under "Alternative forms", but maybe it's worth discussing in the Beer Parlour. On a separate note, I would really enjoy discussing the development of the Romanian language with you, because you have shown profound knowledge in the subject – I have a lot of questions of my own, so let me know if you're up for it. Keep up the good work, either way! --Robbie SWE (talk) 09:10, 8 June 2017 (UTC)
 * Sure thing. I'm not a complete expert, but I am certainly interested in the matter. But yeah, if you actually read through the old (Google Books) document linked to above, you can tell something is fishy there. There's no way the language would have naturally changed that much since the 19th century, so you can tell many of the forms there are artificial. They even modified their surnames to an extent, haha. Another question regarding how to classify these terms is whether to describe them simply as having a different, modified orthography or actually being different forms... I think they actually tried to change the pronunciation, but again few people actually attempted writing, much less speaking, that way. I, for one, am not even sure they should be included as alternative forms since it was uncommon, being restricted to a few overzealous erudites, and part of a relatively short-lived phenomenon; might be misleading to some users. And yeah, I guess Portuguese and other languages did this to an extent too, but in different ways. Normally, modern Portuguese doesn't maintain the -ct- consonant cluster, but just opts for the -t- (most of these words are still borrowings that occurred at some point in the Middle Ages or Renaissance eras, like actor/ator). Word dewd544 (talk) 16:26, 8 June 2017 (UTC)

 * Lexicographer's license and registration, please.
 * The mere number of instances is meaningless. Hyphenation of multi-part terms, especially of noun phrases used as adjectives or adverbially, is common. It is highly advisable when it helps avoid ambiguity. One would like to have a KWIC display to see how the words were used. I'd bet that "one-time-only offer" is a fairly common use of the orthography. Without the hyphens it takes a little longer to exclude other groupings of the component terms (eg, one time-only offer).

Folk linguistics
Recently, I’ve come across something similar to what you mentioned in SGB’s talkpage. I am taking an English Literature major in college, and one of my professors claimed that Germanic languages come from Classical Latin (as opposed to Romance languages, which come from Vulgar Latin).

Now, that’s an understandable mistake to make, since Germanic languages (especially English, which she doesn’t speak well) have loads of loanwords directly from CL. But the sad thing came afterwards, when she mentioned that she has a degree in linguistics. Probably in an unscientific field, like sociolinguistics. Kind of made me lose my faith in the course. — Ungoliant (falai) 17:10, 25 April 2016 (UTC)

Why when we define forms, do we not put the definition directly on their page for example

Adjective

 * 1) suitable, adapted
 * 2) ready
 * 3) apt, proper
 * 4) tied, attached (to)
 * 5) dependent (on)

 * no, because somebody decided that the masculine adjectives (when existent) should be lemma. I don’t know why, but frankly I’d be surprised if misogyny were never once a factor (Rome was indisputably patriarchal). Having an inflected form contain the same information would create extra work because then info from one place would have to be pasted there as well. If the form had unique senses, that would be another matter. -- Romanophile ♞ (contributions) 17:57, 2 May 2016 (UTC)

 * would it be possible to petition wiktionary for a system to automatically copy the definitions to the forms? I'm primarily thinking from a user's perspective, sometimes when interent is slow it can be difficult to get to the actual definition of the word I'm looking for.

 * I always hate checking edits to those appendices, because it's so hard to see what's changed in the diffs alone. But I reverted the whole bunch anyway, because I found one mistake and to me, that makes me lose any trust at all in the anon. —Μετάknowledge discuss/deeds 15:35, 4 May 2016 (UTC)

the -ilk rhymes
Hi. Are you sure about nonsilk, nonmilk, soymilk? I don't think the stress is on the final syllable. Equinox ◑ 11:16, 7 May 2016 (UTC)

 * No, I’m not sure. I assumed because the root words are silk and milk. I find stress to be an extremely subtle feature anyway. -- Romanophile ♞ (contributions) 11:24, 7 May 2016 (UTC)

Wiktionary:Votes/sy-2016-08/User:Dan Polansky for admin
Hi. I came to let you know about this admin vote for Dan Polansky that's going on. Because of our similarities in opinion, I just thought I'd let you know in case you wanted to chip in to the discussion. Thanks. :) Philmonte101 (talk) 14:20, 27 August 2016 (UTC)

 * : thanks. I think that a victory would only further discourage me from contributing, but fortunately for me, I can recognise how good life is without this project. -- Romanophile ♞ (contributions) 17:52, 27 August 2016 (UTC)

 * As mentioned by Dan Polansky here, I don't think Philmonte101 should have called Romanophile based on that reason.
 * Wikipedia has a rule, explained at, that does not apply to Wiktionary but I believe that makes sense: "don't preselect recipients according to their established opinions". Sometimes I get a little frustrated when I create a vote and someone that I have seen supporting my idea in discussions does not show up in the vote. But if I start calling supporters individually, it would compromise the normal consensus-making process. If a vote has low attendance or it is not clear if it will reach a consensus, I prefer creating a post in the BP calling everyone at once. --Daniel Carrero (talk) 20:55, 27 August 2016 (UTC)

 * Votes can be overturned in future. I think it's tacky to go hunting for supporters but I don't see why it's illegitimate. If we banned it on here, people would just do it on Skype or Kik or whatever the kids use these days. Equinox ◑ 02:03, 28 August 2016 (UTC)

 * (Or IRC!) For the record, in, Wikipedia explicitly bans going hunting for supporters in secret using tools like these. --Daniel Carrero (talk) 02:51, 28 August 2016 (UTC)

 * Might be a good rule. Maybe we need yet another vote, to bring that over here. haha. Sorry Romanophile I will get off your page now ;( Equinox ◑ 02:53, 28 August 2016 (UTC)

Wrong Portuguese verb inflection template
Romanophile, can you help me with this template Which wrongly produces instead of the correct Sharkb (talk) 16:13, 21 December 2016 (UTC)

 * Thank you for your response, but the template is used in the exact same way, look at foi - the template parameters are the same as you (and me) specified, but it still produces a "nós" description instead of the correct one. Sharkb (talk) 09:45, 24 December 2016 (UTC)
 * missed one. Thanks for bringing this to someone’s attention, by the way. Cheers. — Ungoliant (falai) 16:22, 24 December 2016 (UTC)

That IP
Hey Romanophile, congrats on passing your RfA here. I just wanted to let you know that I mass-reverted the contributions of the vandal here, but pages he created still exist. Not sure if you've found this yet, but Special:Nuke can very quickly clean those up.

Regards, Ajraddatz (talk) 07:46, 24 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Though, some of his contributions seem to be fine. I typically just mass rollback since it denies them the recognition of seeing their work stay, but if some contributions are good and you feel they're worth keeping, let me know. I'd be glad to go back through them and undo the appropriate reverts. Ajraddatz (talk) 07:48, 24 December 2016 (UTC)

Old Spanish
Romanophile, I don't know whether you are aware of it, but in w:Cantar de Mio Cid, there is an excerpt from the Song of My Cid in Old Spanish, with translations into Modern Spanish and English. The reading of the fragment can be heard in Old Spanish [//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/hu/1/14/Oración-Cid.ogg here]. —Stephen (Talk) 04:38, 2 February 2017 (UTC)

remember
that we are supposed to be documenting how language is used, and not how it would ideally be used in a perfect society. I assume all these phrases where you have robotically replaced "man" with "woman" are actually in use, right? And if they are rare or nonstandard, you are marking them as rare or nonstandard? Wikt is not your political soapbox. Equinox ◑ 00:37, 10 April 2017 (UTC)

 * : hey, do me a favour and quit messaging me. :^) — (((Romanophile))) ♞ (contributions) 00:46, 10 April 2017 (UTC)

 * what's wrong with replacing "man" with "woman"? Sounds quite sexist . . . . . . . Mirrorbird (talk) 21:34, 20 April 2017 (UTC)

 * Equinox is not being sexist; what he says is the truth. If a phrase is not being used, whether or not it's sexist that it isn't, it shouldn't be here. Perhaps someone should go and check to make sure that all these entries are attested. If "woman about town" is not attested, for example, it shouldn't be here, even though "man about town" is attested and it's sexist how it's "man" and not "woman".

Judeo-French entries
I noticed you added a few entries in Judeo-French. I think this is a bad idea without at least having some access to actual texts in the language, beyond just glosses and glossaries, and verifying that the word you're adding actually appears in the text. Do you know of anywhere online that we can access Judeo-French manuscripts? --WikiTiki89 15:58, 6 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Do you think that the Handbook isn't reliable enough of a source? Considering how hard it is to read some of the manuscripts, it might be more reliable to work with peer-reviewed transcriptions. Does the Handbook have transcriptions of texts? —Μετάknowledge discuss/deeds 20:22, 6 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Right, I forgot that the Handbook transcribes a few excerpts. But still, what I'm saying is we should limit ourselves to adding words that we actually see appear in those excerpts, and again excluding the glosses (5.1) and glossaries (5.2). --WikiTiki89 21:25, 6 March 2018 (UTC)
 * No, I don’t know if there is an online depository of Judeo‐French texts, but the source that I gave does have some snapshots of the manuscripts. Many of the manuscripts seem to derive from Der altfranzösische Fiebertraktat Fevres, though I am unsure if there is a (legal) way to access that resource online. — (((Romanophile))) ♞ (contributions) 21:38, 6 March 2018 (UTC)
 * All I meant was, I think we should only be adding words that we've seen appear in the texts (whether manuscripts or transcriptions, including the transcriptions in your source), rather than in the glosses or glossaries, or those mentioned in the body of the article in your source. --WikiTiki89 21:45, 6 March 2018 (UTC)
 * You mean something like nonfictional examples? There are some featured in that book, but I have to admit that some of the entries that I already submitted may lack corresponding examples. I was working under the assumption that while mentions don’t count for popular and vivid languages, they’re acceptable for ones that went extinct. — (((Romanophile))) ♞ (contributions) 07:26, 7 March 2018 (UTC)
 * I don't get what you mean by nonfictional. Mentions are only acceptable after editors who work with the language have agreed on a set of acceptable sources for mentions, and scholarly works don't count for that anyway. But also, if we treat Judeo-French as part of Old French, then I would say it's better not to add the Judeo-French spellings of words only attested as mentions, after all their equivalents are already present in the Latin spelling. I do realize that you've already added words that don't follow that, and that is why I brought this up. --WikiTiki89 15:28, 7 March 2018 (UTC)
 * I'm a bit confused by both of you. Wikitiki, can you please give a specific example of a Judeo-French entry that you think should not exist? —Μετάknowledge discuss/deeds 18:29, 7 March 2018 (UTC)
 * It's not that I don't think they should exist, but I don't think they should have been created without verification. For example,, and probably most of the other ones that Romanophile created. --WikiTiki89 18:40, 7 March 2018 (UTC)
 * How is that entry not verified? It has a link to the Handbook wherein the spelling and meaning are confirmed, and a quotation transcribed from a manuscript by Pflaum (1933) including the word is given. —Μετάknowledge discuss/deeds 18:48, 7 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Well for one thing, it's a romanized transcription, not simply a transcription, making it not clear what the original spelling is. (I was also going to say that unless someone here has access to "Pflaum 1933", we don't even know which text it is from, but it turns out "Pflaum 1933" is available online.) --WikiTiki89 19:02, 7 March 2018 (UTC)
 * The handbook gives the Hebrew transcription for the word in question, making it quite clear what the original spelling is. —Μετάknowledge discuss/deeds 19:18, 7 March 2018 (UTC)
 * That's exactly what I'm opposed to. We should see the word in its original context in the original script. --WikiTiki89 20:06, 7 March 2018 (UTC)
 * That standard is not usually applied, and although it is obviously preferable, it may not actually be possible in some instances. I don't agree that it is necessary, in any case, and I don't know of any consensus to that effect either. —Μετάknowledge discuss/deeds 21:22, 7 March 2018 (UTC)
 * I think that then we are just starting to add words in a language, we should go for the verifiable ones first. Once we've got those down, we'll have an editor or editors who have built up some familiarity with the language and can go add the words that are not as easily verifiable. There are a couple passages quoted in full in the Handbook in the original script. Let's start with the words that appear in those. What we don't need is editors with very little familiarity with the language simply copying words from other sources. --WikiTiki89 21:16, 8 March 2018 (UTC)

How we will see unregistered users
Hi!

You get this message because you are an admin on a Wikimedia wiki.

When someone edits a Wikimedia wiki without being logged in today, we show their IP address. As you may already know, we will not be able to do this in the future. This is a decision by the Wikimedia Foundation Legal department, because norms and regulations for privacy online have changed.

Instead of the IP we will show a masked identity. You as an admin will still be able to access the IP. There will also be a new user right for those who need to see the full IPs of unregistered users to fight vandalism, harassment and spam without being admins. Patrollers will also see part of the IP even without this user right. We are also working on better tools to help.

If you have not seen it before, you can read more on Meta. If you want to make sure you don’t miss technical changes on the Wikimedia wikis, you can subscribe to the weekly technical newsletter.

We have two suggested ways this identity could work. We would appreciate your feedback on which way you think would work best for you and your wiki, now and in the future. You can let us know on the talk page. You can write in your language. The suggestions were posted in October and we will decide after 17 January.

Thank you. /Johan (WMF)
