Talk:Hayrack

message: Needs lots more photos and a better lay out. I have several thousand pics of kozolci as well as some line drawings. Find the time is the problem. Metulj 15:14, 4 March 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: More detail in the text about how the structure functions may be of more value than a large gallery of pictures.  How is hay compressed enough to cure properly?  Does a kozolec with a narrow roof allow rain onto the sides of the hay, making it important to store it in a way that sheds water?  The round lumber looks like it might be fixed only temporarily in the frames: is it moved to allow loading/unloading? --128.115.27.11 (talk) 22:55, 22 October 2009 (UTC)

text: Hayrack (or hay rack) is a good translation, and clear as well: a rack for hay. (Its polysemy with 'feeding rack' and 'hay wagon' are not problematic.) The term hayrack has been used in printed sources for the kozolec at least since 1954 and is quite common today: Google Books has 122 publications issued since 2005 using this term. Similar phrasal descriptions are even older: "cutting hay and hanging it to dry on wooden racks covered by little shingle roofs" (1936), "hay was hung out to yellow on great racks by the wooden barns" (1939). Any etymological association with goats (which is likely but not certain) is irrelevant for the English translation. Doremo (talk) 15:27, 12 February 2012 (UTC)

text: Please, provide reliable English-language sources and propose a move at WP:RM. When you get consensus through this process, feel free to change all occurences of 'hayrack' (except for the ones in titles of sources) to 'kozolec'. Judging by the conversation above, there is currently no such consensus. Thank you. --Eleassar my talk 10:11, 19 October 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: One: There is no "consensus" when one sees 2 people talking about the eytmology and another switching the word "hay rack" back in for the Slovene word.

replies: text: Metulj, your tone may be perceived as both insulting ("knows nothing about Slovene folk architecture") and condescending ("Razumeš?") to the other contributors involved in this discussion. Please review Wikipedia:Civility. Your constructive contributions to the project are welcome. Doremo (talk) 13:07, 19 October 2012 (UTC)

text: A visual survey of Google images does not support your suggestion: "hayrack", "drying rack". Doremo (talk) 15:22, 19 October 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: So, a bit of googling is the same as expert opinion by doctorate holding academics? I love wikipedia. It is a risible position.Metulj (talk) 21:08, 20 October 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: The personal characteristics of contributors are much less relevant than the weight of established usage and reliable published sources, particularly those by native English speakers in this case. (And please be more cautious in assuming who is an expert, who has a doctorate, and who has academic credentials.) Doremo (talk) 03:04, 21 October 2012 (UTC)

thread_title: Expansion needed

message: I don't know why it was proposed that this article be merged with hay rack. The hay rack article is about devices for feeding animals, and the hayrack article is about structures for drying and storing hay. Doremo (talk) 10:51, 23 June 2012 (UTC)
