Talk:Diccionario de la lengua española

message: *I've started a new section and I'm not entirely happy with the title of the section.  If you have any better ideas, please feel free to try it out and see if it's better. Also, this is obviously a hot-button topic for some people, so please read the external link provided before considering any changes.  I believe I have been fair to both sides.--Hraefen 17:20, 1 July 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: New section (Criticisms of the dictionary)

message: "The earliest editions also had X entries that no longer appear."  I'm not sure what this means.  Possibilities: (1) Entries where the headword begins with the letter X.  If so, this is pretty much obvious, since the article has already stated that the 1803 edition substituted J for X. (2) Ten entries. (3) A certain number of entries, but we don't know how many, so we use the algebraic X. -21:51, 17 August 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: X entries

message: I just came upon and was perplexed as to why the article title is in spanish. Considering that this the english wikipedia I'd figured titles should be in english especially when the title can be easily translatable. Therefore I would like to the move the title to: Spanish Language Dictionary of the Royal Spanish Academy, or Dictionary of the Spanish Language of the Royal Spanish Academy. What do you think?

replies: text: After four years, I saw your question, checked the policy, and yes, the title should be in English, so I changed it. Now it is in English.Thinker78 (talk) 19:37, 25 October 2017 (UTC)
thread_title: Spanish or English Title?

message: The official title is, simply, Diccionario de la lengua española, and nothing else. DRAE (for Diccionario de la Real Academia Española) is a popular initialism for naming this dictionary but, even if the Spanish Academy uses it, as the Academy also sometime mentions diccionario usual, DRAE and other titles including "Real Academia Española" are not official titles. Thus, this article should be moved to Diccionario de la lengua española. Kintaro (talk) 23:18, 9 November 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: Clearly. No question whatsoever. If you haven't already done so, I shall request the move forthwith. --Technopat (talk) 23:58, 9 November 2013 (UTC)

thread_title:  Official title 

message: I will ask Justlettersandnumbers to do his/her proper homework before reverting other people's hard work. He/she should really take into account the significant amount of time that other editors put into editing articles before reverting their work, which is something that a senior editor should know. "Dictionary of the Spanish Language" is not an obscure or made up name, it is actually the official translation in English that the Royal Spanish Academy uses for the name in Spanish of its dictionary, Diccionario de la Lengua Española.http://www.rae.es/sites/default/files/Triptico_RAE_ingles_web.pdf Thinker78 (talk) 02:45, 5 November 2017 (UTC)
thread_title:   "Do not, however, use obscure or made-up names"? "Dictionary of the Spanish Language" is not an obscure or made-up name 

message: He/she did not state what is the mistake and what is misguided. I spent a significant amount of time editing the article, so I think it is completely unreasonable to revert my work without even providing an explanation. Thinker78 (talk) 02:48, 5 November 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: If you're going to name  you should ping them. From below it appears that Justlettersandnumbers was right and your claims are without 3rd party evidence in books. In ictu oculi (talk) 08:31, 5 November 2017 (UTC)
thread_title:  Revert of Justlettersandnumbers was unreasonable and did not provide explanation
