Wiktionary:Beer parlour/Quotation pages

 * ''The discussion below was started at Requests for deletion. Because of it's length and because it deals with a broader policy matter that goes beyond the deletion of a single article it has been moved here. Eclecticology 20:24, 19 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Pre-move discussion
Is this something we have agreed to do? I don't remember reading anything about it. Why can't these quotes just be included on the page for tidal wave, in the Quotations section? — Paul G 11:11, 21 Feb 2005 (UTC)

 * We haven't agreed or disagreed to do it yet. I've started it as an experiment which can be discussed. Apparently it is now being discussed.
 * These quotes have not been included on the tidal wave page because they would overwhelm that page. The idea is that they are equivalant to the citations gathered by lexicographers working on a real dictionary. From them some can be chosen for inclusion on the page. — Hippietrail 17:00, 10 Mar 2005 (UTC)

No, this is over the top. A subpage of the original could be considered, but there isn't even a link from tidal wave here. How are people expected to find it? SemperBlotto 14:09, 21 Feb 2005 (UTC)

 * Please show how it's over the top. I haven't linked to it from tidal wave because (a) until now it hasn't been ready, (b) I've been unsure what might be the best way to link to such pages before discussing my idea with other contributors. Nobody but the intrepid were expected to find it yet. Apparently now some have been intrepid enough to find it. — Hippietrail 17:00, 10 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Need I mention that the use of quotes to refer to quotations is contentious and should probably be avoided in the Wiktionary framework? ;-) Anyways, there is already Quotations:Tidal wave, which, though it might also be superfluous, should not be deleted unless we have some idea of where to put the content (i.e., do we want it all on the main page?). Two quotations pages are surely not necessary. Jun-Dai 07:06, 23 Feb 2005 (UTC)

 * Yes that's a good point. Where is this discussed? It's something I've been unclear with so far.
 * Quotations:Tidal wave is not superfluous. It looks like good research and analysis to me. We should have more of this type of work on Wiktionary.
 * I started my :Quotes experiment before I noticed the Quotations: experiment. After having looked at the latter I see we had very different goals in mind though we seem to have had similarish naming strategies. My goal is to archive published quotes/quoatations, especially by well-known or respected authors, to use as soure material for creating definitions. In this way we can be sure our definitions follow actual usage rather than our own points of view. — Hippietrail 17:00, 10 Mar 2005 (UTC)

 * This is starting to get silly. Delete.  Oh, and now Maremoto:Quotes and Flutwelle:Quotes.  --Connel MacKenzie 06:06, 3 Mar 2005 (UTC)

 * Please indicate how it is silly. Please indicate how the pages on the words "maremoto" and "flutwelle" are silly. — Hippietrail 17:00, 10 Mar 2005 (UTC)

 * Sorry, it seemed silly as I had no idea what you were up to. It was not clear from the first article on its own, and when others started cropping up unexplained...   Well, thank you for the explanation and clarifications.  Now in perspective (as an experiment) I think you have done a wonderful job.  Thank you.  --Connel MacKenzie 17:20, 10 Mar 2005 (UTC)

 * Phew! Thanks Connel. I'm glad my rant was convincing (-: — Hippietrail 03:49, 12 Mar 2005 (UTC)

 * It's worth noting that this is not the way to do sub-pages in any case. The colon has a special meaning in MediaWiki, as a namespace delimiter, and for this reason one should avoid using colons in titles.  Sub-pages are done with forward slashes: Tidal wave/Quotes, Tidal wave/Quotations, Tsunami/Quotes, Maremoto/Quotes, and Flutwelle/Quotes, which (as a selectable feature) garners them an automatic hyperlink up to the main page.  And I agree with Paul G (no relation).  There's no reason for the quotations not to be in the main article.  The main article isn't that long. Move to the correct sub-page name, deleting the resultant redirect, and then Merge into the main articles. I happily volunteer to do the merger of these four. Uncle G 11:05, 7 Mar 2005 (UTC)
 * This is a valid point. As the pages are so far experimental, I am very open to better naming and linking strategies. It is worth noting that while colons are best avoided for actual titles, they are also used in creating what are called "pseudonamespaces" in wiki jargon.
 * On my computer, the quotes I have collected for "tidal wave" now come to just over 5 screenfuls. This seems too much to include in the article in toto, it seems disingenious to delete this work which I expected people to see as a valuable resource for honing the article. — Hippietrail 17:00, 10 Mar 2005 (UTC)

 * This (and the others) should all be moved to Wikiquote - that is what it is for. SemperBlotto 11:10, 7 Mar 2005 (UTC)
 * That's a good point. However, WikiQuote mainly organizes by work, by author, and by theme; rarely by random phrase included within the quote, such as this.  (And I suspect that the people at WikiQuote would argue in their turn that such things belong at Wiktionary.)  What would one file Tidal wave:Quotes and Tsunami:Quotes under at WikiQuote (so that they could be directly referenced from the four Wiktionary articles) ? It won't be under a theme of "weather", for example.  Most of the quotations aren't even about the weather. Uncle G 11:29, 7 Mar 2005 (UTC)
 * Not being a WikiQuote contributor, I would be surprised if this is what they want over there. This is a collection of many uses of a word to see how it's used. I imagined WikiQuote had a different and more selective goal. — Hippietrail 17:00, 10 Mar 2005 (UTC)

 * Well, I've just copied it to a new Wikiquote article at "tidal wave" and added it to Category:Nature. We'll see what they do to it. SemperBlotto 11:42, 7 Mar 2005 (UTC)
 * The original author's rationale at Talk:Quotations:Tidal wave is worth reading. Personally, I don't see why Tidal wave:Quotes and Quotations:Tidal wave (another example of why it is bad to use colons in article titles, compare Quotations:tidal wave) are different and separate, and why examples deemed unsuitable or excessive for tidal wave, or being used to prove a point, couldn't simply have gone on Talk:tidal wave where the discussion was being had. Uncle G 18:29, 7 Mar 2005 (UTC)
 * My idea was that real dictionaries and real lexicographers collect quotes and analyse them as the background work to writing their definitions. Traditionally, slips of paper were used. Most current dictionaries surely now use databases of various kinds.
 * Quoatations:XXX and XXX:Quotes were independent ideas. Maybe they could be merged. Their names can probably be improved. So far they both seem experimental. It seems to me that XXX:Quotes represents the "slips of paper" and Quotations:XXX represents the analysis.
 * I chose XXX:Quotes because that seemed like a logical way to keep the source material I was collecting close to term I was researching. I chose ":" because I've seen it used on wikis before, I neglected "/" because I've had less experience with it. I didn't put it on Talk:XXX because (a) I envisaged it growing quite large (b) I thought of the Quotes subpage as being a third aspect to complement the article and its talk page.
 * If Wiktionary had its own software rather that being shoe-horned into something designed for an encyclopedia, one way of doing it could have been to have true namespaces for quotes and analyses as well as general free-form talk. — Hippietrail 17:00, 10 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Now that I have read and responeded to each point it has helped to clarify in my mind what a good approach would be. I believe the collection of "citations" to be a key part of building a dictionary. I believe the analysis of a corpus of citations to be another key part. I propose, therefore, changing XXX:Quotes into XXX/Citations and changing Quotations/XXX into XXX/Analysis. Some day they could become Citations:XXX and Analysis:XXX could be true namespaces just like Talk:XXX

Wiktionary need much more solid groundwork and I believe collecting citations and analysing them to be very serious and proper steps toward making Wiktionary more like a "real dictionary" as it is now becoming more mature. — Hippietrail 17:00, 10 Mar 2005 (UTC)

 I agree that the Wiktionary is kind of limited by the wikipedia interface. We shouldn't have all the languages on the same page, and we definitely shouldn't have all the translations on the same page. I don't think we should have the quotations on the same page either. That said, it is a little inconvenient to have them on totally separate pages at the moment, since we don't have a good interface for accessing the additional data. The main page should be for the definitions, etymology, pronunciation, sample constructions, etc. At some point it would even be nice to have a page for conjugations. But this is all way in the future, and trying to implement it all now would be a little too overwhelming and confusing (this is all part of the reason why I've mostly dropped out of the Wiktionary). That said, I'm all in favor of XXX/Quotations and XXX/Citations, the former being for well-known quotes, or good quotes from well-known works, and the latter being for a fairly large (upwards of a couple hundred) selection of situations in which the word has been found, covering as broad a range as possible of time, style, context, etc.

 * Also in an ideal Wiktionary there would only be one entry for each main word entry, with automatic redirects for anything specified therein as a plural, other sense or alternate spelling or other forms including adverb and adjective.  And lastly it would have automatic redirects also for all (undefined) translations (raw, transliterated and romanized.)  --Connel MacKenzie 22:46, 13 Mar 2005 (UTC)

 *  See, I'm not really in favor of much usage of automatic redirects. It makes sense for something like the wikipedia, where all the information is contained in a single article, and the user isn't going to necessarily know where that article is located (going to "new wave" brings you to "French new wave").  In the case of the Wiktionary, however, there is usually some information that is specific to that entry, that differs from it's other forms.  I would prefer that "puppies" contained a line saying "puppies is the plural of puppy".  There's no danger of confusing the user, and the quantity of information should not be a concern for us.  Additionally, I'd like to see pages like cacti vs cactuses or Usage:Cacti vs cactuses utilized to fully explain what the difference between the pluralizations are, and which is viewed as correct, better, or acceptable by whom.  This would be even better for something explaining the differences between synonyms--usage note articles, if you will.

I've just moved all of my XXX:Quotes to XXX/Citations. It seems opposition to them seems to have disappeared since I explained them but discussion has petered out and the RFD's are still there. Could somebody remove them or make further comments please? I've left messages regarding doing likewise for the Quotations:XXX pages but so far without reply. — Hippietrail 08:56, 19 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Post-move discussion
I support the idea that these long pages of quotes should be at Wikiquote. The purpose of quotations on a word's page here is to illustrate the use of the word, and give evidence of its usage in various ways and at various times. The idea of gathering slips of paper to be used as a resource makes sense, but it would make more sense at Wikiquote. I can understand Hippietrail's enthusiasm for the idea, but if the support for this idea does not translate into work from the other supporters the idea may not amount to much.

That being said, if this were to go ahead I would prefer the format XXXX/Quotations since it puts primary emphasis on the word in question. Whether "quotations" or "citations" is used is immaterial to me, as long as it is done consistently. Eclecticology 21:23, 19 Mar 2005 (UTC)

DO NOT CUT-N-PASTE FROM DICTIONARY.COM. Thank you. --Connel MacKenzie 00:28, 20 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Thank you for resubmitting the entry. However, I will need to undo it, as your submitted definition is clearly derived from the AHD definition, particularly noting the timestamp. It is tricky to avoid copyright violations, and there is no reason to increase Wiktionary's exposure. If you were to cut-and-paste the definition from ARTFL (the copy of Webster's 1913 dictionary now in the public domain) it would still not be in Wiktionary format.

It is customary to let someone else provide a definition for a word that you submitted that was flagged as a copyright violation (thereby reducing the argument that it could be a derivitive work.) --Connel MacKenzie 00:46, 20 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Talk:monkey wrench

I removed the picture that was previously on this page. It was not of a monkey wrench, but of a pipe wrench. A monkey wrench has smooth jaws for gripping nuts. A pipe wrench (formerly a Stillson wrench) has teethed jaws designed to grip pipes in a single direction. When the direction of motion is reversed the grip is released. Eclecticology 03:26, 20 Mar 2005 (UTC)

 * Well if you are right, you had better tell Google Images to clean up their act! They have about 50 more just like it in there. Boy oh Boy are those guys dumb! Thanks for straigtening me out, E--and kindly replace the correct image that I had D/L as a gesture of agreement that you were in error.

 * My time is worth something to me, bud. I don't do this stuff to fool you or anyone else. When I put something there that is wrong, I will be the first to admit the error and change it. I am a man, and I can take correction. --HiFlyer 14:38, 20 Mar 2005 (UTC)
 * See the Wikipedia article. The actual "monkey wrench" is obsolete. Modern pipe wrenches are often incorrectly called monkey wrenches. It is not surprising that a Google image search would show many images of pipe wrenches in this case. Both usages probably merit inclusion here.--Srleffler 17:57, 25 February 2008 (UTC)

epicentre

Etymology
, from +.

Sense of “center of an activity (particularly a disaster)” (1908) by generalization from earthquakes, possibly influenced by.

Noun

 * 1)  The point on the land or water surface directly above the focus, or hypocentre, of an earthquake.
 * 2)  The point on the surface of the earth directly above an underground explosion.
 * 3)  The focal point of any activity, especially if dangerous or destructive.
 * 4)  The geographical area in which an ongoing disaster, illness, crisis, or other destructive event is currently most severe.
 * 1)  The focal point of any activity, especially if dangerous or destructive.
 * 2)  The geographical area in which an ongoing disaster, illness, crisis, or other destructive event is currently most severe.
 * 1)  The geographical area in which an ongoing disaster, illness, crisis, or other destructive event is currently most severe.

Usage notes
The loose usage “center”, or specifically “center of a disaster”, is criticized by some as pretentious and incorrect,  since  specifically means “over, on top”, and is not a generic intensifier.

A more semantic objection is that epicenter implies a singular center of a disaster, which is misleading for many disasters, such as diseases, which do not spread simply by radiation. Instead, is preferred by some as less misleading.

Nevertheless, epicenter is widely used for diseases and other disasters, both in media and epidemiology.

Talk:mammock

Is this a real word? Can we have some citations in noun and verb sense please? — Hippietrail 10:55, 20 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Well, it's from Shakespeare and, as he just used to make up words, I don't suppose it has ever been actually used outside his plays. (Anthony and Cleopatra, Coriolanus) SemperBlotto 11:13, 20 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Mammock is in current use with various pronunciation and spelling among different populations in tidewater North Carolina including the Lumbee Indians, Ocracoke Islanders (1) and the Downeast Core-Sounders in Carteret County (2).

(1) Curzan, Anne 2002 North Carolina Language and Life, American Speech 77:2, 218,219. (2) Documented by a photograph of a front license plate on car reads ‘Pure-t Mommicked’ taken 21 Sept 2008 at First Baptist Church, Davis NC. I don't know how to attach the photo but will provide it at request: chris.geller@hotmail.com works fastest.

Pronunciation among the Carteret County speakers varies at least from /ˈmʌmɪk/ to /ˈmŭmɪk/. To the best of my limited ear it always rhymes with US Midwestern ‘pick’ and ‘lick’ but has an initial vowel varying between US Midwestern ‘monster’ and ‘mummy’.

RFV discussion: March–April 2022
RFV the extremely specific pronunciation and spelling note - term limited to some obscure parts of North Carolina - some even unpopulated. WTF??? I assume this is some esoterically inventive trolling. VealSociedad (talk) 18:35, 18 March 2022 (UTC)

 * We've already got three citations for the noun and two for the verb from the 16-, 17- and 1800s; I've now added some more modern ones. The only pronunciation we give is ironically a British one supported by a quotation of the OED I've now added (though we use the more modern notation /a/ for that British pronunciation where the old text has /æ/); the variability of pronunciation beyond that is supported by the various other spellings we have entries and sometimes citations or further-reading for, like mommick, mommuck, mummock, although some effort should probably be made to consolidate and cite those. Reference works about North Carolina dialect (some mentioned on the talk page and some I've added to the entry) do say it persists there, including on a modern-day licence plate. - -sche (discuss) 19:31, 25 March 2022 (UTC)

 * The old English Dialect Dictionary, for what it's worth, has this has "MAMMOCK, sb. and v. Sc. n.Cy. Cum. Yks. Chs. Der. Not. Lei. Nhp. War. Wor. Shr. Hrf. Glo. Oxf. Brks. Hrt. e.An. Ken. Sus.

(Their "o" is the o of mob, their "u" the u of full, their "ɐ" the u of up, "·" indicates the preceding syllable has stress, and the other symbols have their IPA values.) It would be helpful if anyone knows whether this term is still current in any of these British dialects. - -sche (discuss) 20:07, 25 March 2022 (UTC)

wog

Etymology 1
The origins are not entirely clear. The term was first noted by the lexicographer F.C. Bowen in 1929, in his Sea Slang: a dictionary of the old-timers’ expressions and epithets, where he defines wogs as "lower class Babu shipping clerks on the Indian coast."

The most common theory is that it is a, which was first used as the name of a black-faced doll in ’s 1895 book The Adventures of Two Dutch Dolls and a Golliwogg. A variety of folk etymologies exist, with the most common claiming that the word is an acronym for one of either, , , or preceding “Oriental gentlemen”. Another erroneous claim is that it was used in the mid 1800s, with WOGS (meaning Working On Government Service) stencilled on the shirts of Indian workers in Egypt.

The Scientologist sense is from the usage of, who apparently accepted the folk etymology from “worthy Oriental gentleman” but employed the term to mean “common ordinary run-of-the-mill garden-variety humanoid”.

Noun

 * 1)  Any person who looks in-between "white" and "black": originally specifically an Indian, but later also broadened to anybody of Middle Eastern or Mediterranean descent.
 * 2)  Specifically someone of Mediterranean descent.
 * 3)  A person who is not a Scientologist.
 * 1)  Specifically someone of Mediterranean descent.
 * 2)  A person who is not a Scientologist.

Spell checker changed Brahmin to Brahman. I am more familiar with the new term, but if someone likes Brahmin better, more power to them! I hope my spell checker doesn't find out it was wrong... --HiFlyer 14:05, 20 Mar 2005 (UTC)

 * I don't think the first definition is quite correct. Unless, of course, the word has changed meaning in the last few years and I missed it. Wjbean

I think that definition needs to be removed: "one who can regurgitate a substantial quantity of political slogans" is anecdotal and does not make clear the meaning this person intended. Definition 2, "a political commentator or prognosticator", seems to accomplish this fine. KyleWild 07:29, 13 December 2006 (UTC)

RFV discussion: May–October 2012
Rfv-sense: "a scholar or learned person". I'm not convinced this is used in such a way as to be different from sense 1, ‘learned person in India, Hindu scholar’, or sense 4, ‘professed expert in a particular field’. Ƿidsiþ 07:21, 8 May 2012 (UTC)

 * Could you clarify a bit what sense 4 means? Specifically — in "professed expert", does "professed" mean "self-professed", or "professed by the speaker", or "professed by anyone"? In the first and third cases, I think we should make that more explicit; in the second case, I think we should simply remove "professed". Either way, I think that will help clarify what would be necessary for this sense to be different from sense 4. —Ruakh TALK 11:43, 8 May 2012 (UTC)
