replies: text: There is nothing really "official" about that source.  The City of Toronto has never official designated neighbourhoods or neighbourhood boundaries.  The neighbourhood information on the City's website was done at a staff level, and doesn't have any official status - and a handful of the boundaries and neighbourhood names are a little dubious.  Having said that, it is the City of Toronto website, and although the designation might not be official, it is a reliable source unless someone has reason to doubt the accuracy of the neighbourhood name in this particular instance (and I can't imagine there would be any such reason).  It would be great if you found another source to show that Elms-Old Rexdale is the name in the "real world" as well, and not just a monicker used by a handful of bureaucrats.  But even absent an additional source, I would support your proposed move.  Jusr make sure that you conform to the style set out at WP:CANSTYLE -- the title should be at Elms-Old Rexdale, Toronto (no brackets).  Or, given the uniqueness of the name, the title doesn't need disambiguation, and as per WP:CANSTYLE and WP:DAB, and can just be at Elms-Old Rexdale.

Talk:Middle Frisian

message: The article reads like there could be some Dutch or West Frisian POV. Hints: "Netherlands", "Dutch province", "Gysbert Japix ... father of modern West Frisian", "grammatical feature in almost all West Frisian dialects [...] Therefore, the Modern Frisian period is considered to have begun at this point in time, around 1820". 
Sources contradicting this article:
* Roland Harweg, Studien zum Verbum und seinem Umfeld Aufsätze, 2014, p. 408: "... vom Altfriesischen (eine mittelfriesische Sprachstufe pflegt man nicht anzusetzen) zum Neufriesischen ...". That is: It's uncommon to have a Middle Frisian period.
* Damaris Nübling, Prinzipien der Irregularisierun, 2000, p. 33: "Eine mittelfriesische Periode wird entsprechend erst von 1550-1800 angesetzt (Tiersma 1985: 4)." That is: The Middle Frisian period ranges from 1550 till 1800 (and not 1820). A reason for using 1800 could be: dialect literature (German: Mundartliteratur, also Dialektliteratur) arises in Germany around 1800 (e.g. Johann Peter Hebel), and so does the rare Frisian literature in Germany (e.g. "Der Geitzhals auf der Insel Silt" from 1809). Between 1600 and 1800 there isn't much Frisian from Germany (for example, for Wursten Frisian only a short word list was published during that time).

In Horst H. Munske (in German and English). Handbuch des Friesischen – Handbook of Frisian Studies. Tübingen, p. 284 is said: "Zum Festl.-fr. gehören die Mundarten der Wiedingharde, Bökingharde, Karrharde, Norder- und Mittelgoesharde sowie der Halligen. Die einzelnen Hauptmundarten lassen sich teilweise wiederum in Untermundarten einteilen, etwa [...] in der Bökingharde zwischen Wester- und Ostermooring." This makes quite clear that the Mooring dialects are part of Bökingharde Frisian. On page 285 is map, but I'm a little bit irritated about it because it could be interpreted in that way, that both Oster- and Westermooring are main dialects by themselves. But in the whole article "Bökingharder Friesisch" is the term that referes to the main dialect and "Westermooring" and "Ostermooring" refere to subdialects. So I guess the map is just a little bit unprecise. Frisia (talk) 11:00, 15 September 2011 (UTC)

Talk:Tweants dialect

message: Why does the name of the article have to contain 'dialect'? Yes it is a dialect of a wider Low Saxon dialect continuum, but no other article on related Low Saxon dialects has the 'dialect' addition, nor any dialect of any language group, for that matter: Scouse, for instance, is an English dialect, but the article's lemma doesn't include 'dialect', as that description would be pretty obvious. A request hereby, to rename it to just 'Tweants', please. Woolters (talk) 17:32, 4 February 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: There is another reason to rename it Tweants, and that is the principle of parsimony. "Tweants" as a noun is nothing else other than the language, and as a standalone lexeme has no other meaning. We don't call Wikipedia articles Parsnip (root vegetable) or Chimpanzee (primate) in case there is either only one definition or no contender for an equally prominent definition. The article itself can explain that Tweants is a dialect - or, more neutrally, a variety - of the Low Saxon language. Ni'jluuseger (talk) 22:51, 30 November 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: Yet another argument: strictly speaking, Tweants isn't even a dialect but a group of Low Saxon dialects - with not insignificant variation between them - collectively known as Tweants.

Talk:Heptatonic scale

message: The article says:
The term diatonic scale refers to a pitch collection and does not imply any particular tonal center or note of especial emphasis. It is in this respect different from the term major scale, which does imply a tonal center.
'''
It seems like opening a can of worms to bring pitch hierarchy in on a term like this.  (Can you think of a diatonic scale that does not imply a tonal center?)  I think we should re-word this:
The term diatonic scale refers to any pitch collection of seven notes.  As a generic term, it is used in conjunction with more specific terms such as major or minor to imply a tonal center (i.e. F-Major diatonic scale).
Any thoughts?  66.130.161.95 (talk) 06:56, 4 September 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Section: Diatonic Scale 

message: Having read the distinction in the article between diatonic and major, with major implying a tonal centre, I'm not comfortable with the famous examples of heptatonic scales including diatonic, melodic minor, harmonic minor, etc., as that implies that harmonic minor is not diatonic.
