Talk:Stephen Wurm
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] Name
I understand that umlauts are considered sexy but the name of this guy is WURM. Please move. --217.80.84.111 14:40, 27 April 2006 (UTC)
Whät ïs än ümläüt? Äm Ï sëxÿ? Seriously, I'm neutral in this but I think that someone who helped create this page really believed his name was spelt with an umlaut. Maybe he got rid of the umlaut when he moved to Oz.. if so, feel free to note it and move the page. Zargulon 17:46, 27 April 2006 (UTC)
- I just moved the page based on how User:Kwamikagami spells in the various articles about Papuan languages. I suggest you ask him. BTW, anons can't move pages. —Khoikhoi 02:46, 28 April 2006 (UTC)
Yes, Stephen never spelled his name with an umlaut. I'll make the change (soon). Also he said that he was born stateless (and remained so until he came to Australia. I'll check on this. Dougg 09:00, 11 May 2006 (UTC)
If Stephen's father died before his son's birth, what about then of the story I've heard that Stephen was raised up in a family of a diplomat, moving from country to country and always learning rapidly the language of the new country? / 15 June 2006 (Voice from Finland)
