Category:Linguistics Workgroup (Top)

Some specific languages that you removed Category:Linguistics Workgroup (Top) and tagged Category:Linguistics Workgroup is included in High priority articles for pilot. --Versuri 07:29, 27 December 2006 (CST)

I changed them because linguistics does not primarily deal with specific languages, rather the system of language itself. Perhaps there should be a separate category for specific languages. John Stephenson 09:58, 27 December 2006 (CST)

OK, as I am not an expert, I have nothing to say, but, please, see this. Many editions were reverted in CZ:High priority articles for pilot. --Versuri 04:31, 28 December 2006 (CST)

My article on "Lexis" has been removed during the recent Wikipedia purge; it was, however, mostly my work and can hardly be considered a re-write. Can I just replace it? --Douglas MacKevett 11:10, 21 January 2007 (CST)

Acrolect

I have to admit I use acrolect English myself - in fact I am a stauch opponent of Singlish, not so much out of snobbery as out of fear that it debilitates one's ability to speak proper English. It's a very well-written piece. --Yim Kai-mun 02:15, 14 February 2007 (CST)
