A Message to Pro-Life Wikipedians

The section "Foetal Pain" (Fetal Pain) has been deleted from the Abortion article. Could you help restore it? If you would like to see what was deleted, go to my talk page, scroll to "Fetal Pain," and click the provided link.--Thomas Aquinas 22:06, 28 November 2005 (UTC)

Thanks

Thanks for the Klingon thing! Will sort that out

Thanks for Tongan help on Babel template!

I'll go see what sense I can make of it all. If I need help, I know whom to bother <g>. Merci beaucoup. Zora 01:20, 10 December 2005 (UTC)

Finished. I think I did it right -- at least technically. My Tongan is rusty and was never quite native. Zora 02:29, 10 December 2005 (UTC)

I'm wondering now ... I think that using Faka Tonga for Tongan language is an error. I didn't want to challenge it at first, but on thinking it over ... Tonga is the name of the country, and "faka" is a common prefix that means "to make" or "in the style of". They're combined, like this: fakatonga. Fakatonga just means "Tongan style". A common phrase is "anga fakatonga", Tongan custom. Language or speaking is "lea", so Tongan language is "lea fakatonga", speaking Tongan-style. I think all instances of Faka Tonga should really be changed to "lea fakatonga". It isn't usually capitalized.

But I'm not going to go around changing everything until you tell me that it's OK -- or you do it yourself, which might result in fewer dumb mistakes. Let me know what you think. Zora 18:00, 10 December 2005 (UTC)

Pro-life celebrities cat. up for deletion

Hi, I see that you are listed as a Pro-Life Wikipedian, well the Pro-life celebrities category is up for deletion. Category:Pro-life celebrities The abortion zealots don't want anyone to think that any celebrity is actually pro-life. Dwain 23:39, 15 December 2005 (UTC)

Nawatl speaker categories

Thanks for your comment about the nahuatl speaker category things. You mention that the nah-1 and nah-2 are the same. They are not quite identical, tetepitzin is less than tepitzin. The reduplication is a diminutive in this case and not a typo. Magnuspharao 22:36, 17 December 2005 (UTC)

zh link

the article talks about the Homeric Hymns, and the Chinese link links itself to 荷馬史詩 (Homer's epics), they are two different things, so the link is wrong. --K.C. Tang 07:15, 12 January 2006 (UTC)

Je ne sais pas qui d'abord a fait la faute ... le Misplaced Pages chinois??? :P --K.C. Tang 07:22, 12 January 2006 (UTC)

the case seems to be that someone added the wrong link at Chinese Misplaced Pages first, then the bots spreaded the mistake to the wikipedias of other languages. Hope that I've expressed myself clearly :P --K.C. Tang 07:38, 12 January 2006 (UTC)

i try to explain once again: the term 荷馬史詩 in Chinese means "the epics written by Homer", i,e. both the Iliad and the Odyssey, but the inter-lingual links in that Chinese article link themselve to articles about the Homeric Hymns, so the links are false. OK? --K.C. Tang 07:50, 12 January 2006 (UTC)

you know the Homeric Hymns are hymns, not epics ... anyway, the problem seems to be solved :P --K.C. Tang 08:10, 12 January 2006 (UTC)

Gheg Albanian

Pouvez-vous svp m'aider ? L'Albanais gegue est seulement un dialecte et devrait-il avoir le meme statut avec l'anglais americain (American English AmE) ?--Pjetër Bogdani jr. 04:18, 5 February 2006 (UTC)
