Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of Romanian words of possible Dacian origin
The deletion request is based on non-sense and political agenda, constantly pushed by this user. The list name says it all "List of Romanian words of ''possible'' Dacian origin". I agree it needs more work, such as newer sources and cleanup, but the user's attitude and sarcastic comments don't help in any way in that direction. If he wants to help, he should do it with an open mind and honesty. Otherwise, he should take his political agenda elsewhere. This is not the right place. All the books/authors in the ''Sources'' section treat the listed words as Dacian or Thracian. Even the titles of some of the books have it very clear in them. Ion I. Russu, ''Limba traco-dacilor'' (i.e. The language of the Thraco-Dacians); Ariton Vraciu, ''Limba daco-geților'' (i.e. The language of the Daco-Getae). Sorin Olteanu, "The TDM Palatal" ("Sorin Olteanu's Thraco-Daco-Moesian Languages Project"); The statement ''Moreover, its sources mainly support non-Dacian origins'' is a pure fabrication for the un-advised reviewer of this "deletion request". What this article really needs are inline citations from the mentioned sources plus newer, modern sources. However, the research on this field is limited in the modern times, hence, the latest good sources remain the books from Russu and others.ther stuff exists and ikipedia is not a dictionary are ridiculous and frivolous arguments. By your logic, would you delete the hundred or so articles under :Category:Lists of English words, particularly List of English words from indigenous languages of the Americas and :Category:Lists of English words of Celtic origin
