message: Support the May proposal to merge Niser bin Muhammad Nasr Nawar to here, on the grounds of WP:1E, overlap and context. Klbrain (talk) 17:35, 11 September 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: Oppose the merger because where the person is the PERPETRATOR of a notable crime a sub-article can be written about them. WP:1E is meant to apply when no prior article exists about the (usually living) person and the additional information can be readily incorporated into the article about the event. This also avoids creating an article about a living person. If one considers the relative sizes of the articles, the existing article about the perpetrator is already larger than the article about the bombing. This suggests that undue weight could be given to details about the (now deceased) perpetrator. Additionally, sources from 2015 and 2017 suggest there is sustained coverage and ongoing research about the perpetrator under the name "Nizar bin Muhammad Nasr Nawar", or perhaps "Nizar ben Muhammad Nasr Nawar". Subsequent coverage concerning a person most notable for a particular event may mean that WP:1E no longer applies because the person becomes notable for more than one event as a result of the post-event coverage. - Cameron Dewe (talk) 08:21, 15 October 2022 (UTC)

Talk:Phonotactics

message: What about pleasure and azure? Those are the classic examples of /ʒ/ and both have syllables that begin with /ʒ/.
63.247.160.139 (talk) 23:10, 31 July 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: Maybe. Many phonologists believe that the /ʒ/ in those words is in the coda of the first syllable rather than the onset of the second. —Aɴɢʀ (talk) 19:01, 1 August 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: Who? Who are these "many phonologists" you refer to? The requirement for a syllable onset is the universally unmarked state, whereas syllables with codas are universally more marked than codaless ones - so much so that English entirely lacks onsetless syllables - any syllable that would otherwise begin with a vowel has an epenthetic glottal stop inserted to satisfy the onset requirement (if you're a native speaker, just try it out for yourself: say the word "Anna" a few times in a row and you'll feel it, and if you still don't believe me, record yourself speaking and plot it out in PRAAT or similar software and you'll see the acoustic "bump" in the waveform where the glottis closed and reopened, and a sudden transition to the vowel in the spectrogram). Using your logic, pleasure and azure should be pronounced *'plɛʒ.ʔɚ and *'æʒ.ʔɚ. Quite literally the only counterexample I can think of is Breen's analysis of Arrernte, and that's hardly an uncontroversial subject in and of itself. 79.176.36.183 (talk) 09:52, 13 November 2020 (UTC)

So admittedly this article shouldn't have been included, but I'm still in the dark about who, where & why these articles are selected.

Talk:Munda languages

message: The 16 or so Munda languages are all spoken in India, Pakistan, Nepal, and Bangladesh. Most scholars classify them as a language family within the Austroasiatic stock. Santhali is the Munda language with the greatest number of speakers (a few million); Mundari, Ho, Sora, Kharia, and Korku have significantly fewer speakers. Some scholars include Nahali, spoken by a few thousand people in southwestern Madhya Pradesh, among the Munda languages. Khasi, spoken in Assam, Meghalaya, and a number of other Indian states, is a member of the Mon-Khmer language family. See Austroasiatic languages
(Actually, none of them are spoken in Pakistan.)
----
From a dup, possibly useful:
"The Munda languages are spoken in West Bengal, Bihar, Orissa and Madhya Pradesh, India. Together with the Mon-Khmer languages, they form the Austro-Asiatic phylum. The main branches are:
* Santali, Mundari and Kharia,
Juang, Bhumij, Korva and Ho,
* Sora and Gutob
* Kurku
Altogether speakers number several millions 
but they are without a linguistic state, in
contrast to, for example, Hindi, Dravidian
and Tibeto-Burmese speakers in Uttar Pradesh, 
Tamil Nadu and Mizoram respectively. 
The Munda languages are thought to be the most
ancient linguistic stratum of India, ante-dating
even Dravidian. Their relationship to the 
Mon-Khmer languages is remote."
