Utilitarianism
Hi - I notice you added 'This argument has been revived by Richard Rorty's work' to the section in Utilitarianism on Marx's argument about human nature. It wasn't clear what argument you meant or how Rorty is relevant, to be honest, so I've cut your addition for the moment. I'm happy to be shown how I'm wrong, though, so feel free to reply at my talk page. Cheers, Sam Clark 10:36, 19 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Articles on accents
When you add material to articles on accents, could you add references to the article at the same time? Most of your additions seem plausible (though I'm sceptical that RP is based on Northamptonshire accents, given what the people I've met from Kettering sound like) but it would be nice to have sources.--JHJ 17:25, 1 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I've heard the thing about the South-East Midlands many times.
http://www.bbc.co.uk/northyorkshire/voices2005/glossary/barrie_rhodes.shtml "Standard English is nothing more or less than a particular dialect from the South East Midlands".
The three counties that I specifically identified were based on B.B.C. Voices: the book "Talking for Britain", Simon Elmes, p.114 I can't say that I've ever met anyone from Kettering. As it is in north Northamptonshire, it seems peripheral to the Standard English area that was described in the book, and probably not too big a problem. Epa101 17:51, 1 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Mill Town
Hi, many thanks for the contact.
I do agree with your view - and I believe (though am unsure exactly) that Sky and the BBC (and I suspect some of the middle-class national papers) have used the expression Mill town in this way.
However, I know for certain that someone will come along in the near future and challenge it on the grounds that they may never heard of this; a reference (or ideally two/three), would simply prove this statement and back up this view.
I'm uncertain of your level of experience on Wikipedia, but I would say that there are a few policies which dictate why this should be.
. As I say, you may however be familiar with these.
I'd take a look at
Oldham Riots
(which is very much linked to this article and one which I've contributed significantly to) which indicates roughly the amount of sourcing which would be expected for a B-class standard article, and how to present such a topic.
A source wouldn't necessarily need to be found imminently - but it is best to keep the tag in place whilst one is found, as this would help say a serious researcher who is unfamiliar with the topic to know that it has not been checked.
I'll try to take a look for a source, though if you could aid in this I'd be very grateful.
Thanks for contributions, keep up the good work! Jhamez84 00:27, 5 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Accents
Excellent work on the Mill town article. I knew sources would exist for this as I remember vaugley the term being used in such a way! Great stuff - thanks for that contribution!
With regards to accents - my immediate concern is that Wikipedia is an encyclopedia based upon verfiability and other such ideals. However, accents are not an exact science.
There are also issues of say, what constitutes an Oldham accent, is it based upon the exact town proper, or the wider Metropolitan Borough of Oldham (which includes other towns and even parts annexed from Yorkshire itself!). Also, as you no doubt are aware, Oldham and other such towns have high ethnic minority populations - do their accents legitimately form part of or influence what is an Oldham accent?
I'm not challenging such articles, but I am thinking outside of the box, so to speak/type (!), and these could be pitfalls which one may face.
I guess that I could confirm to an extent that (broadly) Oldham does have a Rhotic accent. Though I would add that it's unusual proximity to Yorkshire, Cheshire, Manchester and Derbyshire means that the accent for the area is not strictly a Lancastrian one. Indeed, I'm lucky/unlucky enough when travelling to be assumed to be Mancunian because of my accent - which happens rather consistently!
I'm certainly interested in your projects and ideas for this, and would like to work closely on it if you feel I could help? Hope I have done so, so far. Thanks for the contact and support. Do please get back in touch! Jhamez84 23:48, 8 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Trap-bath split in the South-East
I removed your bit about Sussex and the
English English because the links you used do in fact show it: they show a long [aː] (like a lengthened form of the Yorkshire short vowel) in the BATH words, whereas TRAP words have a short [a] or [æ]. This isn't quite like RP and similar accents, which have a long back [ɑː] in the BATH words, but it still shows the split. I noticed you added something similar to Estuary English; was there another source?--JHJ 17:15, 20 December 2006 (UTC)[reply

Largest village article - similar claims
Hi, please can you reference your source for list of largest towns without railway stations. This article is generally suffering from a lack of references to claims being made, and hence the claims could be just made up with no basis. It doesn't matter to the article that the claims are untrue (only one village can be the largest, only one town without a railway station can be the largest), but the fact the claim was made needs to be referenced. I'm afraid without a reference, this can only be taken as own research and will be deleted. Thank you. (I will check here for any responses) Halsteadk (talk) 12:24, 27 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
AfD nomination of List of collieries in Yorkshire 1984-present with dates of closure
Such information is hard to come by from a reliable source. This statistic, although plausible, is very dubious; the stat apparently comes from Deodato, but I've yet to encounter an interview with him in which he mentions this. As for the countries that did ban the film, these countries:
Australia
Italy
The Maldives
New Zealand
Norway
Singapore
UK
...are all confirmed by reliable sources as to have banned the film at some point. Other countries that are believed to have banned the film but lack an immediately ready and reliable source are:
Finland
Germany
Ireland
Malaysia
South Africa
Sweden
West Germany
This list of countries is unfit to be included on Wikipedia, as they have not been confirmed. Other countries where it has been rumored that the film was banned include:
Iceland
The Philippines
These two are even less fit to include.
As for films that weren't banned, the most significant would be Japan for the film's supposed box-office success. However, that statistic has yet to be confirmed. Helltopay27 (talk) 17:07, 2 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
The United States doesn't ban films for censorship reasons, unless it falls under extreme exceptions that fall under the obscenity clause. Films that are banned in the United States for obscenity have mostly been extremely violent or perverse fetish pornography (i.e. the feature film version of 2girls1cup). As for conventional films, they can only be banned (i.e. barred from distribution) for civil reasons, such as slander, libel, or copyright infringement. Cannibal Holocaust was never banned in the United States (such an action would be impossible under the First Amendment) and in fact had a rather successful run on the grindhouse circuit in 1985.

Ethnic cleansing
I agree that the entry on settlement dismantlement should either be removed or altered to reflect other POVs which do not view it as ethnic cleansing. Making changes to that page is highly problematic however. I don't know if you noticed, but I did have an entry for Palestinians there that I spent days working on only to have
. He didn't delete the entry for the Jewish exodus from Arab lands which we were also discussing and which is, in my opinion, much more problematic given the lack of scholarly sources discussing it in terms of ethnic cleansing. I haven't been able to discuss it with him since, because I'm frankly still angry about it.
Many thanks to you for re-adding the entry in a simpler form. If you do wish to work on those other entries, I will pitch in what I can. Be forewarned however, that people tend to let their POVs rather than reliable sources determine what goes into that page. Cheers. Tiamuttalk 11:19, 5 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

You are invited to join the Romani WikiProject, an attempt to build and maintain an extensive and neutral database of Romani related articles on Wikipedia. To join, simply add your name to the members section of Romani WikiProject.
Not a problem, it can be difficult to see changes sometimes. BTW you are not correct on Hamburg and Dresden. There have been others particularly when the popular estimates for the number killed at Dresden rivalled those of the A-bombings. Frank Chalk and Kurt Jonassohn wrote on page 24 of their book The History and Sociology of Genocide "[our] definition of genocide also excludes civilian victims of aerial bombardment in belligerent states. In this we differ from Jean-Paul Sartre and Leo Kuper".
That article was written in 1982, the Americans ratified it in the late 80s and as the last member of the UN security council so to do, it allowed for the UN sanctioned International Tribunals of the 1990s and 2000s. As for
Bosnian Genocide Case
particularly the ECHR interpretation of the ICJ decision on Serbia in their judgement on Jorgic v. Germany. Basically Ethnic Cleansing under international law is not genocide unless it involve the biological destruction of a significant part of a protected group. What will be interesting given the ICJ and the ECHR rulings, is if the German courts will still use the wider definition of genocide that they used before those International courts made their rulings.
That is not to say that genocide scholars will not continue to use different definitions from that of the Genocide Convention, and therefore conclude that some events are genocide even if under international law it would not be, however I think that the body of international law built up in the late 1990s and 2000s will have a an affect on academic research (just as the term Ethnic Cleansing has been used in analysis of historical events like the
A problem we have a lot on Wikiepdia is ediots make up their minds that such and such is the correct definition for something and then go around adding people or events that fit their own view on the subject. See the very long debate on what is or is not
WP:WTA, but it spills out onto the talk pages of terrorism articles). Also see the deletion debates over List of massacres
.
Genocide is an unusual crime because it requires the prosecution to show what was in the mind of the person accused of genocide. Not only do they have to prove mass murder, but they also have to show that the motive for that mass murder was to destroy a protected group. So for it to be genocide one has to assess the what
Bosnian Genocide Case partly because they could not bring Serbia for crimes against humanity. But if you look ruling and those of the ITCY several times they find that crimes against humanity and war crimes have been committed or to put it in legal jargon there was actus reus they did not find enough evidence that the accused possessed genocidal intent mens rea. With crimes against humanity one only has to prove actus reus as it would take a real exception (like insanity or coercion) for there to be no mens rea
.
But all this is academic because we do not have to decide whether it was or was not a genocide all we need to do is report that such and such an notable person thinks it was a genocide, and hopefully be able to show which one of the many

BBC Pronunciation and BBC English
Hi, thanks for your message. I hope I am following the right procedure to send you a reply. I am, as you can see, very new to this, though keen to learn. My main concern at present is the "Accent" section of "Norfolk Dialect", which needs some sorting out.
For some reason I thought the change back to "BBC English" had been made by someone called Q Chris, so I sent a reply to him or her. Sorry about that!
It is true that in the English Pronouncing Dictionary I make use of the term BBC English, but I also use (and prefer) BBC Pronunciation and BBC Accent. In the latest edition, the 18th (2011) on p. vi, I wrote " The accent of British English that we describe in this dictionary is called BBC Pronunciation ... It is also sometimes referred to in this section as BBC English or BBC accent ...
Now that I have had this brought to my attention, I regret having used "BBC English", for the same reason that I regret "The Queen's English" is used in the Wikipedia article on Received Pronunciation. These terms could also apply to grammar and vocabulary, and I should have used the term which refers exclusively to pronunciation. I will change this in the dictionary.
Hi,
I mentioned that I was hoping to tidy up the material on "Accent" in the Norfolk Dialect entry. I have now finished the rewriting, in consultation with Profs Trudgill and Lodge of UEA. At the moment it's in ordinary text, and I must put it into a form where I can edit it into Wikipedia. If you had time to look at it before I start work on that, it would be much appreciated. I think the simplest thing would be for you to let me have an email address I could send a PDF version to, but if you have a different suggestion I would be happy to follow.

Hello, yes, the feature of glottalization is very noticeable in Norfolk, and I have spent some time trying to write it up correctly. I have decided to leave doing my major rewrite of the Norfolk accent until I am back at base in Norwich, as I am away in my holiday home in France and separated from my books. I will be returning next Wednesday. There is a lot I could say about glottalization in general - many years ago I did my PhD on the subject! It is very difficult to disentangle glottalization, glottal reinforcement, glottal replacement, glottalling and pre-glottalization, unfortunately. Just at the moment I seem to be getting a bit overwhelmed by all the information about English phonetics scattered around Wikipedia, and the number of things that need correcting. Peter Roach. RoachPeter (talk) 17:56, 11 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Yorkshire accent
The material on Yorkshire accents looks good. It's quite nostalgic looking at it, as I taught at Leeds Univ. from 1978 to 1994. I'll go through it at leisure and make a few comments. The main comment I have just now concerns the devoicing of voiced consonants. I don't think it is parallel to the final devoicing in German, Dutch and Polish, as it is, I believe, conditioned by the following consonant being voiceless. So the word 'wide' in isolation ends in /d/, but in 'wide trousers' the first word ends in [t] and there is no difference between 'wide trousers' and 'white trousers'. I remember being shocked hearing a local in Bridlington order a crab sandwich in a cafe!
On other matters - I'm sorry to say things have not been going well for me on Wikipedia. I got busy on a number of topics, and also tried to get some other professional phoneticians to join in. Unfortunately I tried to make some wide-ranging changes to the article on Reduced Vowels in English, which seemed to me to have some serious weaknesses. This seemed to bother an editor called KwamiKagami who kept turning down the draft changes I was putting in my sandbox, and in the end his counter-arguments seemed so unhelpful that I told him that I was quitting and leaving the article unchanged. I had decided that I wasn't going to do any more editing, and it's just by chance that I noticed a message from you. I think perhaps English accents are less controversial topics.

Alternative transcriptions
Thanks for your message (i'd much rather be called Peter). The subject is much on my mind at the moment, and I risk going on for hours about it. Geoff Lindsey's work is very well reasoned and backed up by careful observation. I have been meaning to ask him if he is going to put his ideas in a "proper" publication. BTW, your link to his article didn't work for me, so I'm not sure which of his postings you are thinking of. As for a WP mention, I think it would be quite appropriate to have a section on the subject of why the transcription system used for RP/BBC has been more or less fixed for so long (I would date the unofficial agreement to the 1970's). This could mention various published mentions of this agreement and point to some recent attempts to modernise it, mentioning the OUP dictionary innovations, Geoff's ideas and one or two other authorities that I have noticed.
There is no doubt in my mind that change is due, and I feel a bit guilty that my 'English Phonetics and Phonology' textbook is helping to hold back such a change. Everyone would prefer a situation where we all agree to change together, but it's hard to see how we could manage it. It would need to be put forward by someone with the clout of John Wells, backed up by established names in the subject, and debated at a major conference. The major publishing houses would have to brought on board. I remember CUP turning down the transcription system I proposed to use for my book and insisting that I use the "Gimson system".
Just at the moment I am up to my ears in work producing a new edition of my CUP book (an enhanced ebook to run on iPad, with all examples of sounds, words, sentences etc. having audio when you tap on them), but when I get a break from that (I have just recorded 2500 audio files that have to be checked) I would be glad to cooperate in a suitable section for WP.
Yes, Geoff’s blog articles are meant to provoke discussion, I think, and in places he sticks his neck out quite a way. BTW, the Geoff Lindsey page in WP is not for him. His own website is http://englishspeechservices.com/home.htm
I do think that discussion of the current “de facto” standard is worth a mention in the RP page. The subject comes up such a lot in John Wells’ blog, and in Jack Windsor Lewis’ “phonetiblogs”. In my English Phonetics and Phonology I wrote (in the 1980’s)
A problem area that has received a lot of attention is the choice of symbols for representing English phonemes. In the past, many different conventions have been proposed and students have often been confused by finding that the symbols used in one book are different from the ones they have learned in another. The symbols used in this book are in most respects those devised by A. C. Gimson for his Introduction to the Pronunciation of English, the latest version of which is the revision by Cruttenden (Cruttenden, 2008). These symbols are now used in almost all modern works on English pronunciation published in Britain, and can therefore be looked on as a de facto standard. Although good arguments can be made for some alternative symbols, the advantages of having a common set of symbols for pronunciation teaching materials and pronunciation entries in dictionaries are so great that it would be very regrettable to go back to the confusing diversity of earlier years.’ (EPP, 4th Ed., p 5).
There is a book written about the symbolization issue by a former student of mine (Systems for the Phonetic Transcription of English: Theory and Texts (Linguistic Insights: Studies in Language & Communication) Rafael Monroy-Casas (Author). I didn’t have many proposals for symbol change when I submitted my book to CUP. As far as I remember, I wanted (still do!) to use ‘a’ instead of ‘æ’, and /əː/ for /ɜː/
A bit off this subject, could I ask your views about the WP transcription proposed in ‘IPA for English’? When I first looked at it, I thought it was rather a mess, and it took me quite a while to understand what the transcription was actually designed to do. I now appreciate that it is an extremely difficult undertaking. I feel that if it is to be useful to everyone, it needs some sort of user-manual style introduction so that readers don’t write it off as too complicated, as I did. I feel the idea really needs some further development. Unfortunately that would, I think, bring it close to OR. That’s what makes me reluctant to start making suggestions for reworking the presentation.

Hello, you have previously helped me with advice on contributing to WP in the area of phonetics. I am in a difficult situation at the moment - I contributed a recording of Received Pronunciation for the WP article on RP, and I have just been told it is going to be deleted because I didn't submit it with the right copyright declarations. I find the rules for such things terribly hard to understand. A friendly editor is trying to help me with this, but I really need some backup from someone who understands how things work. You will find all the relevant discussion on my Talk page. I would be grateful for any help or advice. RoachPeter (talk) 17:14, 1 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Yorkshire dialect
Are you the person who responded to me on the latest section on the talk page for the "Yorkshire dialect" article? If so, I've responded to you and it'd be nice to get some feedback. 176.252.240.151 (talk) 21:57, 25 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Also, if there's anywhere else I could contact you on (even annonymously), that'd be really nice. Being from Yorkshire and generally having a fascination with linguistics, I've been trying to find out and make observations about South Yorkshire speech, and being from Wakefield, which isn't far away, I feel you'd probably be rather helpful to me (and possibly the reverse as well), considering you seem fairly knowledgable about it. 176.252.240.151 (talk) 22:06, 25 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, thanks for your addition to this article. I hope you don't mind, but I've upped the heading strength and moved it down the article. The reason for this is that - although I haven't got around to working on the page in a while - you're spot on that it became more myth than reality, and the Conservative party's and emergency planners' adaption effectively sealed the fate of all future mass pickets. I think it's important enough to receive detailed treatment as the "concluding" section of the page. Thanks again!

Good evening 101. Your recently added links to [2] on the Morning Star page. The site does not have a valid certificate and readers clicking on the links you added may be exposed to various attacks.

Are you able to check the links to the articles please and either remove the links or modify them to point to a valid site. Thanks. Burrobert (talk) 11:51, 20 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Hi, @Burrobert:. Sorry about that! I didn't realise that it might expose some people to attacks. I have replaced them with one source from The Independent and another from the Morning Star itself. On the subject of references to Northern Ireland, I've paid some attention to this after reading the sentence with said that articles on the province say "From our foreign desk" (the part that I changed). Maybe that was true at one time, but it doesn't seem to be so any more. It's not very consistent: their title in bold for the area reported on sometimes says "North of Ireland", sometimes says "Six Counties" and sometimes just says "Northern Ireland". I don't think that these headings are used on their website. I suppose that I could use references to the paper version itself. Epa101 (talk) 14:04, 20 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for updating the links. I would be inclined to remove the Northern Ireland sentence if we can’t find a reference. The statements “On Northern Ireland, the paper takes a pro-Irish nationalism line. News reports from Northern Ireland often use Republican terms for the province such as "the north of Ireland" or "the six counties"” seem to involve an editor’s opinion of the content of the paper. It may be accurate but we generally need a reliable source for such statements. I would avoid linking to the paper itself unless the paper itself makes an explicit statement about its allegiance. Burrobert (talk) 16:46, 20 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Right-ho no problem. What about if we leave the “citation needed” tag on the page for the moment? Someone may find something we can use. The statement isn’t particularly controversial so I don’t think there is any urgency in removing it. Burrobert (talk) 02:57, 21 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there,
It may no longer be of interest but I saw some of your comments on Peter Tatchell's Talk Page regarding the first of his Guardian letters and I thought this article might be of interest to you. It is a long investigative piece in Peter Tatchell and if he had any links with PIE, and includes a long-form unedited interview with Tatchell at the bottom.
@Perpetualgrasp: Hi. Thanks for sharing this with me. That is interesting. Looking back at what I wrote on the Talk page for Tatchell's article long ago, I feel some regrets myself. I thought that he was a great activist for a while. He's not done a huge amount in the last ten years, and now I realise that I had overestimated his contributions. I do not stand by what is on the talk page now: I've changed since then. Thanks. Epa101 (talk) 17:44, 12 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
