[edit] Urindish

Neologism. There's nothing on google[1] about this. The author has removed the unreferenced template and left it with no sourcing. Seems highly unlikely that urndish is the 3rd most spoken language when its mentioned nowhere. mmmbeer^{T / C / ?} 01:23, 18 December 2005 (UTC)

• Delete As per nom. I mean, if there's an English Wikipedia, a Hindi wikipedia and an Urdu Wikipedia, then one woudl think that the "third most understood language" would have its own. DeathThoreau 01:46, 18 December 2005 (UTC)

• Whilst the controversy related to the religious connotations of Hindi and Urdu is a very real one (that has indeed caused a long-running edit war to exist on those two articles, and that gives the U.S. English/Commonwealth English controversy a good run for its money), there is no evidence whatsoever that people have adopted this idea in order to distance themselves from it. Indeed, there's no evidence whatsoever that this idea even exists outside of Wikipedia. This appears to be the author's original invention. Delete. Uncle G 07:11, 18 December 2005 (UTC)

• Comment: Just because you are not familiar with the term "Urindish" does not mean it does not exist. The usage of the term Urindish to refer to Hindi-Urdu language is slowly taking off and it is only a matter of time before it gains popularity.

• Delete: Unreferenced, unsubstantiated term. Just because someone coins a term doesn't mean it is used in reality. --Ragib 07:46, 21 December 2005 (UTC)
