Talk:Massachusett language
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Article listed on Wikipedia:Votes for deletion May 7, nomination was withdrawn following page expansion. Discussion:
Substub. As of this writing, entire content is:
- An Algonquian language.
Delete unless expanded soon. Also, this may be my ignorance showing, but if not deleted, shouldn't it be moved from "Massachusett language" [sic] to "Massachusetts language"? Dpbsmith 16:30, 7 May 2004 (UTC)
- I have expanded the page a tad. "Massachusett" is correct. Later tonight I will see if Marianne Mithun's book has some more data I can add to the page. Smerdis of Tlön 16:52, 7 May 2004 (UTC)
It looks fine to me now. Thanks. Since I put the VfD notice in, and since there are currently no votes for deletion other than mine, I'm removing the VfD notice from the page. No further voting needed here unless anyone feels strongly that it still needs to be deleted. Not sure of the etiquette--can I just remove this discussion from the VfD page, too?

End discussion
[edit] To do to improve
- examples of words to other Algonquian languages
- toponyms and their meanings
- basic grammar
- when it went extinct
- dialectology of the r/l/y/n dialects
- map showing range
- state of ethnoarcheological efforts in reviving the language
