[edit] Dutch Low Saxon

Since when is DLS considered a Dutch dialect in mainstream linguitics? Please show some (English) non-chauvinistic sources. Until then, DLS goes, as it is a minority of (Dutch) linguists who share this view, including Rex, though this should be dealt with in detail at the article. What you are (rightfully so) conceding is that a Low German family does exist. Please refrain fromr everting until sources are brought up front. Ulritz 21:49, 1 November 2006 (UTC)

I refuse to communicate with you as long as you refuse to participate in wikipedia dispute resolution. You might have gotten away with refusing a mediation, I don't think you'll get away with ignoring an Arbcom case.Rex 22:07, 1 November 2006 (UTC)
According to the European Charter for Regional or Minority Languages, Limburgish and Dutch Low Saxon (as spoken in Drenthe, not Niedersachsen)are not Dutch dialects. Here is a Dutch Low Saxon source [1] free of any chauvinist bias. Ulritz 22:08, 1 November 2006 (UTC)
