Talk:Limousin dialect

message: Limousin is a language recognised as such in the ISO-639-3 and as such it should not be called a dialect. GerardM (talk) 07:50, 28 July 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Oh, so whatever's in the ISO-639-3, which was not written by anyone very knowledgeable on the whatever-thousand languages it gives codes to, can trample what pretty much everyone in the scientific community who studies this agrees to, what is found on the ground, and what the actual speakers themselves know and do? The only dialect of Occitan for which there is a 'separatist' movement with more than a handful of members is Provençal; there is no one in the limousin-speaking community advocating a 'limousin language'. But hey, what does that matter. NB: 'an Occitan language' makes as much sense as 'an English language'. Regarding the title, 'Limousin Language' makes no sense in itself, because if anything it should be 'Limnousin (Language)'. 85.138.140.132 (talk) 16:27, 28 February 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: ISO is not the ultimate judge on language issues. For example, it lumps Erromintxela and Caló together under the same code, yet they are overwhelmingly described as languages. Even the Occitan wiki runs this with a dialect label and the English article describes it as such too. I propose me mirror that and move to Limousin (dialect).

Talk:French Flemish

message: Hopefully, the French Flemish culture and language will not vanish in the 21st century, as the article provided a colored map of the decrease of the West Flemish language in the Dunkirk (Dunkerque) district. The West-Vlaams population faced forced assimilation under the French Republic and some dissidents decidedly move out of France to nearby Belgium and another option is to emigrate globally. There has been emigration of West-Vlaams (Flemish) peoples in the 19th century out of the NPdC region, notably to North America (the USA, see Dutch American), but a higher ratio went to Australia or New Zealand known for large Dutch-Nederlandic communities, some went toward South Africa in spite of the British occupation (culturally, the West-Vlaams and English peoples share some characteristics) and South America (esp. Argentina) where a small West-Vlaams descendant community is found in their geneaologies-the ill-fated Chilean president Salvador Allende may have West Flemish-Belgian ancestry-and family namesakes. The decline of local able-bodied people (esp. young adult males) by emigration and wars, esp. the two world wars I and II in the 20th century in the battle-ridden NpDC region, known for its' coal mines and factories made the French government install a guest worker program to hire 10,000-some Britons, Greeks, Italians, Poles, Spaniards and Scandinavians to fill the void left by the massive population loss. Today, the main center of West Vlaams culture in NpdC is in the community of Haut Pont, Nord-Pas de Calais or Haute-Ponte in Picard French about 10 miles (6 kms) north of the city of Saint-Omer on the boundary of the Nord and Pas de Calais departments, an estimated 90% of its' 20,000 residents in Haute-Ponte claim Flemish ancestral heritage. + 71.102.12.55 (talk) 09:49, 8 November 2010 (UTC)

message: The current article contains:
"Although French Flemish and West Flemish are together with Limburgish and Gronings the most distant dialects from Standard Dutch, Standard Dutch and Standard German are more distant still. However, that is not the case for Dutch and German dialects spoken at both sides of the Dutch-German border."
This text does not make full sense to me and appears confusing:
* first, French Flemish is one of the dialects most distant from Standard Dutch, and then this Standard Dutch is even more distant?!;
* and furthermore, that - i.e. French Flemish being one of the dialects most distant from Standard Dutch - is not the case for Dutch and German dialects on both sides of the border between Dutch and German (or the Netherlands and Germany?)?!

thread_title: Wiki Education assignment: Black Foodways in the United States

message: Pinging  as the main contributor.
This section is a bunch of WP:Synthesis. None of the provided sources mention "dirty rice". The ferris.edu reference used for "[...]such as fried chicken, chitterlings, watermelon, and dirty rice" doesn't mention any type of rice at all.
Also this part:
:Ben's Original, well-known and famous for its dirty rice[...]
That's not supported in either source, and Ben's Original actually doesn't even have a dirty rice. It also comes off as a strange type of MOS:PUFFERY. (Strange since it's condemning the brand as racist, but also showing the brand as being progressive for rebranding)
I think this section could be good, if you can establish (through reliable sources) that dirty rice is a stereotypical food, and if you can establish that Ben's Original's rebranding is a good example of this stereotype being acknowledged/fixed. But currently it's a pretty bad addition to the article.Brightgalrs (/braɪtˈɡæl.ərˌɛs/)[ᴛ] 03:55, 29 April 2023 (UTC)

message: Many universities in Louisiana have crawfish boils during the Spring semester.

thread_title:  University Crawfish Boils 

message: I am not a writer or contributor, just a reader and Texas resident and the question I ask is; is there any reason why there is no mention of crawfish in Texas? In Southeast Texas, one of the most populous areas in Texas, the Crawfish boil is a long standing tradition. Growing up in southeast Texas myself it was a standing tradition dating back some time that we had large crawfish boils with family and friends, mostly with crawfish we harvested ourselves from creeks and ponds. Now days almost 40 years down the road you can find crawfish on the menu of many different restaurants, from boiled crawfish served by the pound to more exotic fair like crawfish etouffee pistolettes. Crawfish boils are held by people of many different races and family backgrounds every weekend. 
The rice industry in Texas uses crawfish as a natural soil filter and function as distributors for crawfish after the rice harvest. Texas is 2nd behind Louisiana in farm raised crawfish production. 
The annual Texas Crawfish & music Festival in Spring Texas (est. 1986) will go through 20-25 tons of crawfish in 6 days. There is a Cajun Catfish Festival in Conroe Texas that features crawfish as a major part of its tradition. The Texas Gatorfest in Anahuac also features crawfish as a major component of its tradition, granted it is held during the waning months of crawfish season. All in all crawfish festivals are held all over Texas even as far west as Austin.
Due to the close proximity to Louisiana and the similar geography and cultures, Southeast Texas shares many of the same traditions and cuisine with creole Louisiana.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mcnubins (talk • contribs) 20:33, 27 January 2012 (UTC)

Talk:Steve Riley and the Mamou Playboys

message: I think this article needs some serious rewriting. It needs to retain a neutral POV and currently it seems to express a lot of the writer's opinions of the band. Here's an example:
:"Although the band plays primarily Cajun music, other forms are blended into the music. The mood of the Bayou Ruler album (produced by C. C. Adcock and Tarka Cordell) is a bit edgier than its other albums. This emotional quality seems to reveal a level of comfort with the music that far surpassed the bands other albums.
:On their latest album Dominos they have two excellent medleys "Napoleon B. Fruge" and the "Ardoin Medley". Their timing seems quite precise and allows the band to do interesting effects such as they do when they overlay parts on the fiddle on the song "Creole Stomp" on the Happy Town album."  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Yoshiman64 (talk • contribs) 23:55, 24 May 2008 (UTC)

Talk:Iry LeJeune

message: I edited the opening paragraph. Though Iry was immensely popular (and why not? he was great!), and was probably the most important figure to record with the accordion after WWII, he was not the first (Lee Sonnier for J.D. Miller), and not the only (Nathan Abshire, Lawrence Walker, Aldus Roger, Austin Pitre, and others were recording very soon after WWII). That is why I tempered the statement about "singlehandely." Through the book on the Hall of Fame of the CFMA of Lake Charles chapter, Atlas Frugé recalled that J.B. Fusilier was playing the accordion in his dancehall performances even during the string band era when the Hackberry Ramblers, Leo Soileau, Happy Fats, and Harry Choates were most popular. Frugé largely credited Fusilier for keeping the accordion in Cajun music. Also, I have interviewed people who recall Lawrence Walker performing on the accordion in Texas dance halls throughout World War II. It does not seem to be the case that no one played or enjoyed the accordion during those times. They simply were not recorded, for some reason, and the impression has been made that the accordion had fallen out of Cajun music.
There were NO references in this article at all until I added a reference to Ron Yule's book on Iry LeJeune which was published in 2007. This article will be more credible, in my opinion, once we cite some of the standard, popular academic works on Cajun music. These include Brasseaux and Fontenot: Accordions, Fiddles, Two Step and Swing; Savoy, Cajun Music: A Reflection of a People; and Ancelet & Morgan, The Makers of Cajun Music.

Talk:Tri Yann

message: The current Bretagne/Brittany edit war is indicative of the sheer absurdity of this distinction and the bizarre ignorance that seems to accompany it. Firstly Nantes is not in the région of "Bretagne" at all and never has been. It is in Loire-Atlantique, which is part of the région of Pays de Loire. Secondly, it was in the Duchy of Brittany, and since Tri Yann identify very strongly as Breton, it is very important to mention that fact. Paul B (talk) 16:18, 2 June 2008 (UTC)

It's a complex subjwect to be sure, but the folk revival dates back to before the war - indeed as far back as Barzaz Breiz. Of course Gallo is not quite the same as 'Francophone'. Most Tri Yann stuff is in more or less standard French, not Gallo. Stivell and Servat both have their own articles. Discussion of the relationship between them does not belong here.
