== The Views of Different Schools? ==
This entire section appears to be an advertisement for the Azerbaijan Linguistic School. The citation links to an article in the Russian version of Misplaced Pages, and the content is of questionable importance, at best. I think the section should be removed in its entirety. ] (]) 07:12, 30 January 2012 (UTC)

== More examples from other languages? ==

I just saw this page and noticed that it's surprisingly weak for such a prominent linguistic topic. I think it could really use some changes. For example: since English pronouns don't show much distinction, wouldn't the section with all the types of pronouns be much more beneficial with clear examples from other languages? Or should we leave that to their respective pages? I'm going to be adding things here and there to help with the typological understanding of pronouns. ] (]) 15:36, 16 December 2013 (UTC)

Article needs citation improvements

This article needs citation improvements, throughout the page.

I removed some unsourced info added by an IP, at DIFF.

Cheers,

I see some was vandalism, but the unsourced info should not have been added back in, without citations. I've removed it, and fixed the vandalism, diff. — Cirt (talk) 03:58, 2 February 2014 (UTC)
Unsourced content was added back in, again, here diff. This article should be trimmed of all unsourced content, and replaced with appropriately cited material. — Cirt (talk) 04:10, 2 February 2014 (UTC)

Original research problems

Tagged with original research problems, as the majority of this article is wholly unsourced, and therefore violates WP:NOR.

Cheers,

Cirt (talk) 03:59, 2 February 2014 (UTC)

Unsourced section tags were removed

Diff, unsourced section tags were removed.

This article has multiple subsections that have zero (0) sources whatsoever.

I added {{unsourcedsect}} tags to those sections.

Those tags were removed inappropriately.

Cheers,

Note on unsourced content in article

NOTE: I won't be removing this material another time, or tagging this article anymore. But the article as it stands is in pretty poor shape with some determined individual who keeps adding back in completely unsourced content. — Cirt (talk) 04:11, 2 February 2014 (UTC)

It's not hard to find sources for the first section - after all, it was basically an annotated list of articles. The views of different schools is a much more difficult proposition. I have tried to find some sort of survey article or book that summarizes these theories, without success. As for pronominals, I'm a little skeptical that the term is used very much. I am going to change the tagging accordingly. RockMagnetist (talk) 00:15, 4 February 2014 (UTC)

Pronominals

I have searched for uses of the term "pronominal" and can't find any that match the discussion in Pronoun#Pronominals. If none can be found, this section should be removed. RockMagnetist (talk) 00:19, 4 February 2014 (UTC)
