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. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 41.208.48.160 (talk) 07:23, 26 January 2009 (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]

Sorry to see you go - the more who help the better. I know how you feel, however. Hope you will come back and assist again in future. Wdford (talk) 17:45, 5 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Are you leaving the article? I scrolled up the talk page and saw your name as a contributor to the discussion, so I dropped by to ask your input[1] regarding some suggested language to replace the existing lead. If you have a change of heart, it'd be appreciated if you'd stop by to register your questions, thoughts, suggestions and your opinion. Trying to get this article unlocked and moving along again. Thanks. :) deeceevoice (talk) 18:33, 5 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

User:Woland37/CSD

Hi Woland, I've created a CSD subpage for you and changed the link at the top of your userpage to point to User:Woland37/CSD, instead of User:Cunard/CSD. It belongs in your userspace because I don't want to receive hate mail from angry article creators who wonder why their article has been deleted. :) See here for CSD subpages of other users. Best, Cunard (talk) 22:59, 19 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Ah, thanks, I didn't see that. --Woland (talk) 00:34, 20 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Nazi, Swastika References Being Purged from Syrian Social Nationalist Party

Would you mind having a look at the problem of the Syrian Social Nationalist Party's Nazi history and swastika flag being systematically deleted/vandalized? This removes an important aspect of neutrality from the article. References from many reliable sources are provided. See its talk page. The edits are being done by users with IP addresses from very similar domains. Thanks, Histopher Critchens (talk) 20:23, 25 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Given Wikipedia's definition of notability in terms of sources, having a source in an article (that actually discusses the topic) is a direct assertion of notability for the purpose of A7. Read Wikipedia:Notability--carefully this time. You may also want to read this. 160.39.213.152 (talk) 01:57, 1 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
