- Fair enough But I don't see anything that should be retained; the previous introduction was more useful to readers and contained more information. -Justin (koavf)·T·C·M 20:49, 19 September 2006 (UTC)
I corrected the following inaccuracies:
- 1) Hassaniya is not spelled commonly spelled H.assaniya by linguists.
- 2) Hassaniya is not a Bedouin dialect. Bedouin is not a linguistic category.
- 3) the authority of the Beni Hassan tribes was not ended with the war of 1644-74.
- 4) That it was isolated from norther Berber languages and Romance languages is completely irrelevant (so was Egyptian and Syrian)
- 5) Its geographical ISOLATION did not expose it to influence from Zenaga and Wolof
- 6) It is not just spoken by specific tribal groupings
- 7) That Sahrawis and moors are closely connected is very vague and irrelevant. Language is the topic.
- 8) Hassaniya is not "derived" from the Arabic spoken by the Bani Hassan. The Bani Hassan spoke Hassaniya.
I corrected these items. I did not add information. Please do not revert these corrections without adressing these errors. S710 21:09, 19 September 2006 (UTC)
- Okay Where did you get this information? -Justin (koavf)·T·C·M 21:30, 19 September 2006 (UTC)
Wikipedia rules:"Do not simply revert changes in a dispute. When someone makes an edit you consider biased or inaccurate, improve the edit, rather than reverting it. Provide a good edit summary when making significant changes that other users might object to. The Three Revert Rule forbids the use of reverts in repetitive succession." To answer your question. If you read my points, you will see that I don't introduce new information. In that case I would have included my sources. S710 21:59, 19 September 2006 (UTC)
- No new information I apologize; clearly I was mistaken. I was being sloppy when studying your edits; pardon me. -Justin (koavf)·T·C·M 22:18, 19 September 2006 (UTC)
