Basarab the First

Hello, the one to be doing personal research input right now is you! All I've said is that his name may be coming from the daco-thracian substrate from the area. I've cited a book written by a renowned historian and linguist Sorin Paliga. Until you get a degree in the matter and publish a book yourself, I don't think you are fit to contest his work! Maybe you are anti-romanian or anti-autochtony, maybe you are now revealing the political bias of Wikipedia.. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.120.207.251 (talk) 17:01, 12 November 2020 (UTC)

Or maybe you are spreading a fringe theory. Marginal views are ignored by our community. Borsoka (talk) 01:33, 13 November 2020 (UTC)
It seems like you didn't take the time to actually research what I'm saying. A literally PhD linguist and historian is marginal to you? Are you daft?

Hello Borsoka. I've seen that once again you've took interest in editing my contribution. I'd like to point out to you that the modern Romanian language does indeed have a Daco-Thracian substrate, fact agreed upon by all universities in this country and abroad. There's no reason to put a undue weight tag there... As for the rest of the tags, I'll leave them there until we reach a consenus in the talk page. Thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Boyar Bran (talk • contribs) 01:57, 19 November 2020 (UTC)
1. Yes, "Daco-Thracian" may be the substrate language of Romanian. Or, it is also a possibility, that early medieval Romanians borrowed a specific pastoralist vocabulary from Proto-Albanian and this specific vocabulary is described now as heritage of a supposed substrate language. Both views are mentioned in international scholarly literature. 2. Romanian also borrowed words from Slavic and Turkic languages, from Hungarian, from Western Romance languages. If you understand Hungarian, you certainly realize that the name "Basarab" is extremly similar to two Hungarian words ("to make love" in slang and "Arab"). Could we assume that the name is of Hungarian origin based on this similarity? No, because similarity does not make a connection. Borsoka (talk) 02:15, 19 November 2020 (UTC)
Well, it's not the nicest of assumptions, but you could nullify in the same manner the cuman theory, which is also based on such connections. The Proto-Albanian language may have also derived from a Thracian idiom, hence some similarities between our languages. Your derogatory way of using "pastoralist vocabulary" shows me that you may have indeed a visible adversion to Romanians. Keep going like that and you'll also find your way into ANI. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Boyar Bran (talk • contribs) 02:37, 19 November 2020 (UTC)
No, the Cumans dominated the Pontic steppes just decades before Basarab's birth and Cumans made up a significant part of the population of the Golden Horde in the 14th century. Making a connection between a language widely spoken in the region in the 12th-14th century and the name of a ruler born in the 13th century is quite logical. However, making connection between a ruler's birth and a language spoken in the region more than a millenium before his birth is a fringe theory.

Proto vs. Common

Hi, the former Proto-Romanian article has been renamed to Common Romanian, argued as it is not a reconstruction. The Proto-language article's lead definiton contains reconstruction as a possibility, while in the definiton section is says it is compulsory....what is your opinion, in spite of these or the relevance or usage, is this rename ok (along with the addition (inaccurately) to the lead regarding Proto-Romanian)?(KIENGIR (talk) 20:50, 8 April 2020 (UTC))

So far I have been convinced that a "proto-language" and a "common language" are one and the same. I think the editor who moved the page should be approached on the issue. Borsoka (talk) 00:06, 9 April 2020 (UTC)
@Kwamikagami:,
Please convince us/react to our concern/approach...Thank You(KIENGIR (talk) 19:54, 9 April 2020 (UTC))
Note: more informative response below the dividing line

I don't feel strongly about this. People use the prefix "proto-" differently, for either the hypothetical ancestral language or for the reconstruction of that language. I made this move while adding {{infobox proto-language}} to the reconstructed proto-language articles. Proto-Romanian didn't seem to qualify, as AFAICT it's not a reconstruction. If "Proto-Romanian" and "Common Romanian" are the same thing, then for the sake of consistency I thought it better to place the article under the name "Common Romanian".

Bickerton, writing on "protolanguage" (meaning the precursor to human language) in the ELL2 (Encyclopedia of Language and Linguistics), says, It is essential to distinguish the term 'protolanguage' from the protolanguages reconstructed for the various language families of the world, e.g., Proto-Indo-European or Nostratic. These, if they existed, would be full-fledged human languages with a time depth of thousands ... of years, implying that "protolanguage" in this situation means a reconstruction.

The ELL2 article on Romanian doesn't use either term, saying only, This early Romanian soon (perhaps as early as the 10th century) began to split, first into four dialects which later tended to become languages in their own right.

Graham Mallinson, in the Rumanian chapter of Harris & Vincent (eds) The Romance Languages (Routledge Family Series), speaks of "Balkan Romance". The intro by Harris includes Dalmatian in that, so Balkan Romance is Dalmatian plus Rumanian, but doesn't posit a common Romanian apart from Dalmatian.

So I don't see a particular dominant convention. The phrase "Common Romanian" is self-explanatory, while "Proto-Romanian", like "Proto-Romance", will suggest to many readers a reconstruction. I think "Common Romanian" is therefor the better title, but it doesn't matter all that much as long as we're clear in the lead what the article is about. — kwami (talk) 23:21, 9 April 2020 (UTC)

Brown & Miller's dictionary (CUP 2018) defines "proto language" as,

In historical linguistics the reconstructed, or hypothetical, ancestor of a family of known languages.

Crystal's dictionary (Blackwell 2008) defines "proto-" as,

A prefix used in historical linguistics to refer to a linguistic form or state of a language said to be the ancestor of attested forms/languages, e.g. Proto-Indo-European, Proto-Romance

Bussmann's dictionary (Routledge 2006) defines "proto-language" as,

Term indicating an early stage of a language or language family that is not historically attested but rather reconstructed through the comparative method (e.g. Indo-European).

Matthews' dictionary (OUP 2003) defines "protolanguage" as,

An unattested language from which a group of attested languages are taken to be historically derived. Thus Proto-Indo-European is the protolanguage posited as a source for all the Indo-European languages, Proto-Germanic the source for English and the other Germanic languages, and so on.

How well those definitions capture actual usage I don't know, but they suggest there's at least an implication that a protolanguage is a reconstruction, though the term may also be used for the actual historical ancestor. I've seen other sources state categorically (like Bussmann does above) that a protolanguage is not actually a language, but the reconstruction of a language, but unfortunately I don't remember where else I saw that. And of course it's very common for people to take e.g. reconstructed PIE as an actual language, posit actual people who spoke it, etc., even though that's all quite speculative. But, in the end, IMO "Proto-Romanian" has implications that may be misleading for people, while "Common Romanian" does not (though of course it may have other misleading implications I haven't though of). — kwami (talk) 23:44, 9 April 2020 (UTC)



Okay, I think this is perhaps a more informative source to consider: Frederick Browning Agard (1984) A Course in Romance Linguistics, volume 2.[2]

Part One is "From the Romance languages up: Phonological reconstruction", and chapter 2 is "The reconstruction of Proto-Romance". Part Two is "From Latin down: Phonological changes", and chapter 1 is "The Latin language becomes the Common Romance language". Section 1.9 is "Equating Proto-Romance with Common Romance".

At the title of Part Two chapter 1 there is a footnote, explaining the term "Common Romance", and this is on p. 60, as follows (italics in the original):

As applied to what had become by present criteria new language, this new label [Common Romance] quite properly supersedes not only the imprecise and much-abused term 'Vulgar Latin', but also Hall's preferred term 'Popular Latin' and, indeed, Agard's (1976) 'Imperial Latin'. ... As for the term 'Proto-Romance', which must be kept fully distinct from Common Romance, it refers simply to the common source of all Romance languages as reconstructed by the comparative method, and therefore should be reserved for use in a different fram of reference. The fact remains that all the grammatical features for which the comparative method does not show evidence—e.g. the phoneme h or a six-case nominal system—need not be ascribed to Common Romance as we define it. Proto-Romance and Common Romance are, in this sense, the two faces of one and the same coin.

If we follow this model, then Common Romanian would be the actual language ancestral to the modern Romanian languages, which like Common Romance / Vulgar Latin we have some attestation for. I believe that is the topic of our article. Proto-Romanian would then be the reconstruction of this language. — kwami (talk) 00:46, 10 April 2020 (UTC)

@Kwamikagami:, thank you for your above remarks. My concerns are the following: 1. Proto-Romanian/Common Romanian is not attested. It is reconstructed based on the four variants of Romanian (Daco-Romanian, Istro-Romanian, Macedo-Romanian and Megleno-Romanian); 2. A quick google search suggests that the term Proto-Romanian is more common in the context of the article ([3]) than Common Romanian ([4]). Borsoka (talk) 01:12, 10 April 2020 (UTC)

Hi Borsoka,
This seems rather like "Proto-Norse", which is simultaneously minimally attested and reconstructed.
At least, after the intro, the only content of our article is about its attestation. That's not the format for a reconstructed proto-language. And there is nothing in the article about an actual reconstruction.
So, if our article is supposed to be about reconstructed Proto-Romanian, then it needs to be rewritten to actually cover that topic. If, on the other hand, it's supposed to be about the actual Common Romanian ancestral to the modern languages, then it seems adequate. Given its contents, and assuming we agree on using the terms "proto" and "common" as Agard does, then I think it needs to remain at Common Romanian. Of course, we could expand it to cover both topics, in which case "proto" should probably take precedence, since a lot can be reconstructed but very very little is attested.
I don't see how you conclude from those google searches that "Proto-Romanian" is more common than "Common Romanian", and both searches returned inappropriate hits. We do have sources like Dindelegan & Maiden (2013) The Grammar of Romanian who say, "The oldest Romanian period (also known as Common Romanian, Proto-Romanian, Primitive Romanian) is the period prior to the separation of the four Romanian dialects" -- in other words, that they're synonyms -- beside those who make a distinction. And even if we can determine which is more common, do we decide based on blind statistics, or on what is appropriate for WP?
I'll ask someone who commented on Proto-Norse for their opinion. — kwami (talk) 02:55, 10 April 2020 (UTC)
Yes, it is similar. As far as I know, Proto-Romanian is not attested at all. Borsoka (talk) 03:37, 10 April 2020 (UTC)

Borsoka, Did you follow the link provided in my short summary? Did you read the content there? Are you comfortable with what ref=harv means? —¿philoserf? (talk) 06:32, 18 May 2020 (UTC)
1. Yes, but lengthy texts rarely help to understand edits. 2. Up to this point, ref=harv have worked well. 3. Do you know that you can raise further questions instead of explaining your reasons, but I will ignore them? :) Borsoka (talk) 07:22, 18 May 2020 (UTC)
Borsoka, ref=harv are the default. Thus the maintenance category. I am removing the setting which has no negative effect. I does cleanup the maintenance backlog. The person who reverts is responsible for understanding why they revert.
I am now done. I am moving on. There are so very many reference and citation errors and warnings to clear up. —¿philoserf? (talk) 07:27, 18 May 2020 (UTC)
Thank you for your clarification. Please also remember that editors who make edits are required to explain it without demanding other editors' time to read lengthy texts. Borsoka (talk) 07:42, 18 May 2020 (UTC)
Borsoka, that is what my edit summary did. It was more thorough than most I see. Your revert for instance was an edit. It had the default edit summary. No reason. —¿philoserf? (talk) 07:45, 18 May 2020 (UTC)
Tax authorities would gladly employ you if you think an average editor can understand your edit summary. My edit summary was a question mark. And you answered it by raising a series of questions above. WP is not an immigration authority. Sorry, I will not discuss this issue with you. All the same, I am grateful for you for fixing the problem. Borsoka (talk) 07:52, 18 May 2020 (UTC)
Borsoka, Okay. Truce. you got me to laugh. have a great day. —¿philoserf? (talk) 08:00, 18 May 2020 (UTC)


Why did you revert this text with super refernces?

Romania in the Middle Ages section.

Unlike the autonomous Kingdom of Croatia, medieval Transylvania was not a separate Land of Hungary, however it was an administratively distinct[1] and integral part[2][3] of medieval Kingdom of Hungary.

"We do not write what was not"

This is not a real reasoning.

All encclopedias contain negative statements , denials of some common misconceptions/stereotypes, because it is also spread of knowledge what encyclopedias were made. --Liltrender (talk) 17:39, 18 May 2020 (UTC)

It is a real reasoning. Please remember you are not allowed to edit articles because you were banned from the community. Borsoka (talk) 02:19, 19 May 2020 (UTC)

Running out of reasons ? Deny the stereotypes can be found in the printed versions of Britannica, Broickhaus and Larousse encyclopedias. Óvónéni ments meg a sarkokba állított gonosztól?--Liltrender (talk) 07:15, 19 May 2020 (UTC)

You can always entertain me. I especially love when you list renowned encyclopedias. Sorry, now I do not have time to continue this discussion. Have a nice week. Borsoka (talk) 07:53, 19 May 2020 (UTC)

It was just an argumentum ad hominem, due to the lack of reasoning. Until you cannot provide a rational reason, I will neglect your claims.--Liltrender (talk) 14:35, 19 May 2020 (UTC)

Theodore II Laskaris

Hello:

The copy edit you requested from the Guild of Copy Editors of the article Theodore II Laskaris has been completed.

Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns.

I have added a "Clarifrication" tag to one sentence in the Illness and death section as I was unsure what the sentence was trying to convey.

Best of luck with the GAN.

Regards,

Vlad II Dracul

Hello, I think you wrote the article by Vlad II Dracul. You wrote that you were born before 1395. Can we give this a source? When did he say he was born, 1394, or 1393? --Thothr(talk) 17:52, 30 May 2020 (UTC)

I am slightly younger than 625. :) The cited source says: "We know very little of [Vlad Dracul]'s early life beyond the fact that he was born sometimes before 1395 in Wallachia."

Moldova

Hi,

see the recent edits. Regarding the Viking mention, the source I cannot retrieve, regarding Andronikos, as far as I know when Béla III won over him, took many Vlachs from the surrounding territories of today's Sofia and settled them in Szeben and Fogaras Counties then...it is not clear to me where he claims Vlach territories exactly, or how those "Vlachs" were named by him...Please look on it, Thank You(KIENGIR (talk) 14:48, 31 May 2020 (UTC))

Sorry, I do not fully understand your above message. Rodfos was killed by Blakumen who may have been Vlachs and may have lived in Moldova, but this is only PoV. Andronikos was captured by Vlachs somewhere to the north of the Lower Danube - likely in Moldova. Borsoka (talk) 14:57, 31 May 2020 (UTC)

Your recent editing history shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See the bold, revert, discuss cycle for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

Seven captains in chief of the Kingdom of Hungary

Hi Borsoka. Do you know who the Captains in Chief were?

In 1445, seven nobles were chose to rule the Kingdom of Hungary in the name of the young king Ladislaus the Posthumous, however only John Hunyadi is mentioned, but there is no information about the rest even in Hungarian Wikipedia. Although they rule for only one year, I want to know if they played a role on Hungarian history. Greetings Kardam (talk) 07:25, 12 November 2020 (UTC)

Vassal status of Moldavia

Hi,

a question. See ([7]), see this ([8]), and recently this ([9]). I don't see the relation with Poland necessarily appropriately expressed, with exact timeline as before, maybe I miss something (the recent version would suggest earlier 1514 Poland would be exlcuded)? Thank you for your time.(KIENGIR (talk) 04:57, 12 December 2020 (UTC))

I remember that the Moldavian voivodes did homage to the Polish kings several times, but I cannot remember the exact circumstances. The following article is a good source for the early history of Moldavia: Deletant, Dennis (1986). "Moldavia between Hungary and Poland, 1347–1412". The Slavonic and East European Review. 64 (2): 189–211.. Borsoka (talk) 06:48, 12 December 2020 (UTC)
Thank you,
recently I could directly access this link ([10]), please affirm if this exraction from the books covers the issue, or I'd need to gather the whole book..(KIENGIR (talk) 15:50, 13 December 2020 (UTC))
I may not understand your above remark. Yes, it is the article and it covers Polish-Moldavian relations from 1347 to 1412. Borsoka (talk) 16:33, 13 December 2020 (UTC)

If I was able to be of help than I am glad. If you have a new question or wish to pursue part of the original question, of course that is your right, but it is likely better to move on. Enjoy your editing :) Springnuts (talk) 15:57, 17 December 2020 (UTC)
