Then remove the disputable first and fourth paragraph, but there is no need to delete the whole article as those artificial "North Slavic" languages have really been created. Miaow Miaow 21:45, 30 November 2005 (UTC)
Wow, no less than FOUR templates in one short article. Well, no need for the first paragraph; two authoritative sources have already been provided for that. As for the fourth, I have to look for that. --IJzeren Jan In mij legge alle fogultjes een ij 21:49, 30 November 2005 (UTC)

Maybe someone more knowledgeable than myself could check whether these are actually useful for this article? HTH HAND —Phil | Talk 09:28, 1 December 2005 (UTC)

I've added all of them. It's up to others to decide whether or not they really deserve a place in the reference section (personally, I have some doubts, because they don't prove much more than the fact that the term "North Slavic" is indeed in use. --IJzeren Jan In mij legge alle fogultjes een ij 09:37, 1 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Old Novgorod Dialect

It seems that the most important addition that this article needs is a reference for the theory that the Old Novgorod Dialect represents an otherwise unknown North Slavic branch. Can anyone provide this?

While I'm at it, I reformatted the article so that all the natlang stuff was together - this seemed a more logical structure than natlang - conlang - natlang

[edit] Accurancy tag

After User:Dbachmann's edits, I don't see any reason why accurancy tag should stay at the article page. --millosh (talk (sr:)) 00:07, 14 April 2006 (UTC)
