expressions and propositions in tautologies

I want to add the following to the article but there is a dispute concerning it please resolve: Please discuss at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Tautology_(rhetoric)

The Pragmatics or context with 'unmarried bachelor' by the user would determine whether it is a tautology or language verbosity. In an academic setting such as a peer reviewed journal propositions are put forward in an attempt at deriving an independent explanation for an observation. Tautologies in such a setting would be a tautological proposition and unacceptable. Tautological expressions used in an informal setting such as a sports event with its associated colloquial speech is acceptable because of the pragmatics with it. The dividing line between a tautological proposition and expression is pragmatics.


Preservable traits becoming more common

For example preservable traits become more common and unpreserved traits become less common. The word preservable and the term more common are a synonymous play on words that alludes to the same observation that traits increase but it doesn't tell us the actual reason the traits become more common.

Why is this being deleted by Woland. Please motivate why this isn't a tautology because it is. Please discuss at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Tautology_(rhetoric) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 41.208.48.160 (talk) 17:40, 24 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Trouble moving a page? help?

I recently was looking through articles and found that there were two articles for the same reflex. One is very detailed and the other is short and not as informative. I don't think that anyone realizes that they are both the same material yet and I tried to move the pages together but was unsuccessful, I don't know much about the tuning of wiki... Could you please help me move oculocephalic reflex to vestibulo occular reflex? It should be done but I can't do it without spending time I don't have right now figuring out how to do so ( I am in med school and too busy, sorry). Also, thanks for the advice on moving genetic heterogeneity to the mutations page, I will get around to is sooner than later; I just realized you sent me a message about it. Thanks again.

Pusswania

Hello there, you and your fellow administrators have deleted the page in question many times, I fail to see why; the page contains nothing but facts, the first page clearly states Pusswania is a conceptual county, one that is almost registered if you can find it your heart to help the survival of a new-born country please allow this page to exist; we may not be the best at creating well constructed articles, but we have great imagination, powerful tools of literature and are quite simply word-smiths, if you aid our quest for recognition we shall make you an honorary citizen. Please help us, Many thanks The Donzordz (talk) —Preceding undated comment was added at 22:23, 24 November 2008 (UTC).[reply]

Speedy deltion of Chromatic_(Person)

Cripes, could you at least let the ink dry on the page before scheduling it for deletion? My last edit wasn't even 5 minutes before your SD request. Let me get some content on there. --Schwern (talk) 22:38, 16 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Woland37. Just to let you know, I declined the speedy on this article, since it did not qualify. Prod or AfD may be in order, however. Best wishes, Paul Erik (talk)(contribs) 21:48, 18 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
