message: Although this was initially intended to be a correction of some dodgy info regarding mtDNA haplotypes, my edit ended up turning into a massive revamp of the entire page. I knew absolutely nothing about the Aka before this. Somebody with more knowledge than me should clear up some major ambiguities (what does "affiliated with" actually mean?) and add some much-needed information about their habits + behaviour. This page seems to explain the whole affiliation business, but I'm currently too lazy to read it. Massivefranklin (talk) 22:04, 27 January 2014 (UTC)

message: The Parenting section needs serious reconsideration. It is off to a great start by showing a unique cultural difference, however the entire section is based upon that single fact.

No citation of this truly incredible claim.  This needs to be fixed, either with a citation showing the fathers care so deeply for the mother and children that they begin lactating....or the whole silly sentence should be removed.

message: The phrase "was coined in tribute to Adolf Hitler" - I don't believe this is at all correct? "Ralf Gerlach: A Brief Overview on the Discovery of Methadone. INDRO e.V. M nster 2004" states that "The invention of the term Adolphine by New York City street linguists in the 1970s was an apparent attempt to discredit methadone treatment by those unsympathetic to it, using the Hitler association" and that the name was actually derived in the 70's in the US. Wouldn't be best to describe it as a 'urban legend' or 'a widely held false belief' or similar. It certainly is not a "tribute" Glen Stollery 01:39, 28 December 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: If that is the point of the article then the article should outright state that, instead of implying it with a misleading implication, "tribute to Adolf Hitler" because when a person reads they they don't necessarily make a connection the the american TV show which exposes "urban legends."

thread_title:  old data  

message: Belated follow up on this & this. Courtesy ping to @Ibrahim Alkaseer and @Skitash.
The word "Moors" in English is an old exonym that can refer to roughly any or all North Africans, Andalusis, etc (a bit like Saracens referring to Arabs and/or Muslims). Its use here is confusing. The word is linked to Beidane; assuming this is correct, then per MOS:EASTEREGG it's preferable to just use that term. Any WP:COMMONNAME issues might be better discussed at that article. The cited source, Britannica, uses the term "Mauritanian Moors", which would be fine too. I've seen both used in current news/documents. R Prazeres (talk) 20:28, 22 January 2024 (UTC)

No other commercial uses of the stylized CTR emblem within shield, including tie tacks, lapel pins, stickers, clothing items, or any other printed or jewelry items, are authorized.

89.180.22.209 (talk) 06:38, 19 October 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  How do you pronounce ''Sassenach''? 

message: I've reverted the changes which saw it stated that the word was used by "Irish and Scots" and by "Irish and Scottish English users" which, as well as reversing the order of precedence given that the latter people in those phrases a) are the ones who most commonly use it and b) that that it is from Scottish Gaelic the word arrived in English. Also (indeed must importantly) the fact that these edits contradicted the second section of the article dealing with cognates in the Irish and Welsh languages which states that neither equivalent word is used by English speakers in those countries. An Siarach
There ought to be some reference to it though; Its certainly less frequent then in Scotland but i've heard the word used plenty of times in an english speaking context in Ireland where it carries a slightly more derogatory conotation than it would in Scotland. Furthermore, in Irelnad, it refers to the english specificaly rather than to lowland scots or even northern irish orangemen. The implication of calling an englishman a Sasannach is that the given subject is not only english by birth but also either particularly ignorant or intolerant of the native culture.

thread_title:  Irish use 

message: I was shocked to see the NFD tag at the top of this page. The concept of "Sassenach" and the evolution of the concept is incredibly important to Scottish Culture and the cultural history of the British isles. This page needs to be expanded, not merged. If merged, I will endeavor to provide enough of the expansion myself to prove that it warrants its own page. Note that Wiki-Project Scotland considers this a High-Importance topic.

Hello, yes, the arrows are going in the wrong direction - Can think of the N-Li bond ionically like at the top of the article. The -ve charge on N attacks the H atom, so, equivalently, the N-Li bonding electrons would attack the H atom. The mechanism shown at present is a hydride abstraction, not a deprotonation.

Talk:Cimbrian language

message: It is not unusual that a German dialect be unintellibible for speakers of standard German only. This argument alone does not qualify for it not a dialect of German.
Another argument often used in order to identify a certain variety of German as a German dialect is whether it is culturally embedded within the German language. In the case of the Alsatian language, for instance, this is not the case for many speakers, since they use rather the French language as written language and do not master standard German. The is (or was) true for the speakers of Walser German in Northwestern Italy (which is also totally unintelligible to speakers of standard German only).
Does anybody know how this is in the case of Cimbrian? If I have the time, I'll try to figure it out. -- j. 'mach' wust ˈtʰɔ̝ːk͡x 09:16, 22 Jun 2005 (UTC)

thread_title:  How many speakers? 

message: During World War II the German troops stationed in the Walser speaking parish of Formazza/Pomatt nr.Domodossola, Italy (mostly from Tyrol and the Salzburg region) soon learned to understand each other's language fairly fluently.Their officers,who only spoke Standard German,feared that they were conspiring against them ,although the local Walser speakers, most of which didn't know Standard German ,could get themselves to some extent understood by the officers , which proves that (uncorrupt) Walser is not totally unintelligible to (willing) speakers of Standard German.As far as the Cimbrian variety spoken in Luserna is concerned I know, by having frequent intercourse with the villagers, that the same thing that happens in Formazza applies to Luserna. Things are more complex with the virtually extinct, much more archaic, dialect of Roana whose speakers were much less exposed to contacts with people North of the Alps.I must finally add that the dialects spoken in Sappada,Sauris and Timau are not Cimbrian but just marginal varieties of East Tyrollean/Upper Carinthian.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2001:B07:6463:99D:7454:8394:938A:A124 (talk) 15:31, 10 January 2020 (UTC)
