thread_title:  Sockpuppetry at this article 

message: This page contains misleading and non-relevant information; and it doesn't allow me to remove it, because when I do it, minutes later it all comes back. The part "Portuguese speaking countries and regions in the world" has no relation whatsoever with this, because this word refers to Portuguese people (people from Portugal) and it has nothing to do with former colonies of the country, Portugal.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by ThePortuguese (talk • contribs) 21:35, 3 November 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: I have been reverting this, as I feel that it should be discussed by the many people who have created this page, rather than deleted by one person. You say that the word refers to only people from Portugal, however you've not provided any evidence of this. srushe (talk) 21:41, 3 November 2012 (UTC)

text: Although Lusitanic is rarely used, is relative to people of Portuguese descent throughout the world in various countries and has been used for Portuguese-speaking countries, although "Lusophone", "Luso-Countries... etc." "Lusophone nations" etc. and even Lusitanian (This one most commonly used in the strict sense for the Portuguese, but also sometimes for international People) are more used all over the world, very common and have the same broad meanings kind.--LuzoGraal (talk) 21:53, 3 November 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: Lusitanic or the kind - Relative to people of Portuguese descent throughout the world in various countries (lusophone or not) and has been used for Portuguese-speaking countries (despite wide ancestry as Brazil, also for linguistic reasons) To make that sentence clearer. But with several sources: historical, journalistic, literary, etc.. the article would be more clearer.--LuzoGraal (talk) 22:08, 3 November 2012 (UTC)

text: It is debatable whether in the U.S.A. and in other English-speaking countries is used more Lusophone or even in certain instances Lusitanic (or even Galician-Portuguese) for the language around the world.  And the question of Lusophone and Lusitanic is already mentioned in the introduction to the article. Anyway, remember that this is the English-language Wikipedia (though also inspired by the Lusophone world in this matter, but not only). --LuzoGraal (talk) 22:53, 3 November 2012 (UTC)

text: Already explained the difference, but not always different, hence the need for more sources (perhaps) or explaining it better. --LuzoGraal (talk) 23:17, 3 November 2012 (UTC)

text: Go ahead, discussion and research illuminates and is good for the encyclopedia and for general knowledge. I am not contradicting. Lusophone is the adjective (or noun as subject) used most (but not the only one) and is more related, as the etymology indicates, with the use of the Portuguese language by Peoples around the world. But there are alternatives, including the portuguese language and not only in the international arena related to portuguese ancestry and/or culture or related culture, as Lusitanic etc. for the languaje and other subjects - parallel to Hispanic (mostly to the peoples using this language in strict sense but not only, also in ancestry or related culture - not much used the Hispanophone in language matters as you see, even if more stringent to Castillian/Spanish language and by that way, to its speaking peoples), to Anglo-Saxon, Anglican, British Commonwealth, Francophone, Gallic and others as the various subjects in which they are applied, language of course, but some also to other matters or even some only to other matters, unrelated or related to a common language or culture.--LuzoGraal (talk) 00:30, 4 November 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Misleading information (and I'm not allowed to remove it!) 

message: This looks like pre-modern, 18th or 19th Century scholarship to me and therefore very doubtful. There's no Celtic word tanus meaning "tribe" and there's no god named Lus either - note the compositional vowel has been removed, too, which is a giveaway of the mentality of the writers of those times who envisioned the Celts as grunting primitives with a monosyllabic language. I suggest this derivation is misleading and should be removed. Paul S (talk) 14:26, 27 December 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: The article presently makes it clear that this is dubious, pre-modern folk etymology (and I made it really, really clear, by linking to folk etymology. :-)  — SMcCandlish ☺ ☏ ¢ ≽ʌⱷ҅ᴥⱷʌ≼  08:22, 19 October 2015 (UTC)
