User talk:Imperial78
Welcome!
Welcome to Wikipedia, Imperial78! My name is Ryan, aka Acetic Acid. I noticed that you were new and haven't received any messages yet. I just wanted to see how you were doing. Wikipedia can be a little intimidating at first, since it uses different formatting than other sites that use HTML and CSS. In the long run, though, you'll find that the WikiSyntax is a lot easier and faster than those other ways. Here are a few links to get you started:
- How to edit a page
- Editing, policy, conduct, and structure tutorial
- Picture tutorial
- How to write a great article
There are a lot of policies and guides to read, but I highly recommend reading over those first. If you have any questions, feel free to leave me a message on my talk page. Please be sure to sign your name on Talk Pages using four tildes (~~~~) to produce your name and the current date, along with a link to your user page. This way, others know when you left a message and how to find you. It's easier than having to type out your name, right? :)
I hope you enjoy contributing to Wikipedia. We can use all the help we can get! Have a nice day. Sincerely, Acetic Acid 05:28, August 24, 2005 (UTC)
== Bahnaric languages
[edit]Hi, thanks for adding all those links to Bahnaric languages. The reason I kept the links to a minimum in the first place is that red links are vandalism fodder. I don't know how many times I've encountered situations where someone follows a red link to a blank page and then adds nonsense to it. But we can keep our fingers crossed and hope that doesn't happen here! --Angr/tɔk tə mi 08:50, 26 September 2005 (UTC)

Don't know if you haven't seen it already, but there's a question here that you might be able to answer. Regards, —Khoikhoi 02:08, 18 May 2006 (UTC)
Iranian languages map
[edit]Hi. Could you correct the borders of India on the map of Iranian languages you have uploaded? Thanks! deeptrivia (talk) 04:19, 18 May 2006 (UTC)
- Sure, I just took the blank map from wikipedia free maps. I see what you mean, let me fix it. Imperial78
- Etnolinguistic maps of Afghanistan vary. Here is another one: [1] As you can see, (by area) Turkmen is NOT the predominant language spoken in the north, but Uzbek. By population, Persian is the predominant language spoken in the north, while Pashto dominates the south. Persian-speaking Hazaras and Aimaqs dominate central Afghanistan. And this is probably the most accurate map (published by the Afghan government in 1985): [2]
- As for "Tajik", "Farsi", and "Dari", these are different names of the same question. This is not my opinion, but that of Persian scholars and experts. Here is a BBC article about this issue. Scholars from Tajikistan, Afghanistan, Iran, Uzbekistan, Pakistan, India, Lebanon, and Bahrain agree that the name of the language is "Persian" (="Farsi"), while terms such as "Dari" and "Tajik" are modern political designations. Tajik 22:47, 22 May 2006 (UTC)
- Maybe you should also edit the Uzbekistan part. Bukhara and Samarqand are both Tajik cities, and the southern parts are also dominated by Tajik-speaking "Sarts" (not necessairily "Tajik" by ethnicity). Tajik 22:51, 22 May 2006 (UTC)
Small suggestion for the map: Ghazni and the Logar-area in Afghanistan are Persian-speaking (including Hazaragi) areas. This should be corrected. Tajik 14:14, 25 May 2006 (UTC)
- Wikipedia has Logar as a Pashto speaking area. I added the Dari and Hazaragi speakers for the areas in Ghazni. Imperial78
- OK, good. Looks fine to me. Maybe you should create a legend for the languages, explaining which language has which colour. Tajik 17:59, 25 May 2006 (UTC)
- I could but since the languages are listed on the map itself, the reader would know. I thought about creating a legend and numbers for the central Iranian languages since it is getting crowded! Imperial78

Greetings. Khoikhoi told me of your map and so I thought I'd give a little input. Something small should denote the Iranian population in Israel I would think and also some indication of the large Tajik community in western Pakistan (I encountered them myself when I was there) that numbers upwards of 1 million (including 250,000 refugees from afghanistan) probably deserves some mention (they live just to the north of the Pashtuns in Pakistan as well as in Peshawar and Quetta). Everything else looks great! Much better than the other map we were using. Tombseye 22:06, 25 May 2006 (UTC)
- OK, I added the dialect of Madaglashti, where Dari is spoken and the three languages spoken in Israel. Imperial78
- Hi.
Thanks a lot for creating the wonderful Iranian languages map. One point: Along the Persian Gulf coats of Bushehr and Hormozgan except some scattered Arab villages the language of the majority is Persian (local dialect). Your map also ignores the Persian-speakers of the Khuzestani cities such as Ahvaz, Abadan, Ramhormoz, Sarbandar, Shush, Mahshahr, Ramshir etc. Actually the majority of the residents of these cities are Persian-speaking. Arabic only is dominant as a spoken language in areas west of Ahvaz and between Ahvaz and Khorramshar, in areas such as Shadgan, Hoveize, around Khorramshahr, between Ahvaz and Mahshar.
Take care, Mani
- One thing that has not been discussed yet: "Dari" is the name given to ALL Persian diealects spoken in Afghanistan by the Afghan government(s), but actually, it is wrong. The dialect of Herat, for example (commonly known as "Herati" or "Khorassani") is much closer to the Persian dialects spoken arround Mashhad than the dialects spoken in Kabul or Mazar. The map distinguishes between the different Persian dialects spoken in Iran (i.e. it does not refer to all dialects as "Farsi"), but it does not distinguish between "Herati", "Kabuli" (wrongly called "Dari"), "Mazari", "Ghaznavi", etc. For more information, read the following articles of the Encyclopaedia Iranica: "Dari", the New Persian literary language & "Dari" in Afghanistan The Iranica clearly states:
- "[...] 'Dari' is a term long recommended by Afghan authorities to designate Afghan Persian in contrast to Iranian Persian; a written language common to all educated Afghanis, Dari must not be confused with Kaboli, the dialect of Kabul [...] that is more or less understood by more than 80% of the non-Persian speaking population [...]" (p. 507)
- This should be changed in the map ... Tajik 14:17, 26 May 2006 (UTC)
- Add.: Bahrain, too, has a seizable Persian-speaking population. Tajik 14:18, 26 May 2006 (UTC)
- Thanks for the corrections. For Dari, I think I will add Dari like this on the map (Dari) meaning a language used in an official capacity much like Urdu in Pakistan. It will take me a few days to fix things. Imperial78
- Tajik, there are sizable Persian speaking communities in the whole Middle East (UAE, Bahrain, etc.). I think it is best to keep tha map to established older communities of Iranian speaking peoples not more recent groups since there are many Persian speakers in most countries outside the region (USA, etc.).

Hi, I made a slight modification to your map but then realized that my version was lower resolution and did not show the names properly:
.
Please take a look at this map of languages of Afghansitan by its Central Statistics Office of 1985 here. --Behnam 04:57, 14 August 2007 (UTC)
The map
[edit]Yeah, I'm not sure what to say. I love the map, and although it's sort of original research, people need to follow the most important policy in this case, ignore the rules. :) Also, the CIA is definately not academic. It's informative, it's a good source of information, but "academic" is an inaccurate description of it. Cheers. —Khoikhoi 22:17, 7 June 2006 (UTC)
Map key?
[edit]Ok, the map is cool, but there's no key! Sure you list what SOME of the colours refer to in the caption, but really, you need a comprehensive key otherwise it's difficult to decipher. It was for me and I'm an Iranian linguistics major so I think a key is essential to make this more accessible to a general audience. Daviddariusbijan 09:53, 9 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit]Please donot make up your own facts about linguistics lol. I have added the link. There is nothing wrong with the speeling. READ the link esp. the last two paragraphs. If you can add something useful do so... But do not delete any part of the info. already mentioned! ciao ;) omerlivesOmerlives
- There are many spelling errors, "langauges" and "refrences". And the sentences to not make sense. So please fix them and make it acceptable. If not, I must edit them out to keep the article of an acceptable quality. Imperial78
Semitic languages in Ethiopia
[edit]I don't know if South Semitic languages are very close to each other, but all branches need not represent the same level of interelatedness. For instance, any two semitic languages (if you don't compare some of the Gurage dialects with each other) in Ethiopia are not nearly as close to each other as Hebrew, Canaanite, and Aramaic. Plus, Ethiopia does have plenty of Semitic languages — over 20, even! When you count the 6 more in Yemen (ignoring Arabic), you can see the great diversity. Diversity in itself isn't the only reason, however. Firstly, Afro-Asiatic was spoken in NE Africa (I believe the current Urheimat is NE Sudan and some of Eritrea, though I've also heard NE Sahara and other pleaces) and there's no reason why Semitic would have to go around the Red Sea through Egypt to Yemen and then to Ethiopia rather than having originated there, as travel from Ethiopia to Yemen is well attested in ancient times and is thought to have been a major route out of Africa for modern humans. Geographically, it just makes sense. In addition, there are a number of linguistic features which point to Semitic languages having existed in Ethiopia for a long time. As I said, they are attested by linguistic features to at least 2000 BC in early studies (1977 - see Language classification and the Semitic prehistory of Ethiopia. Folia Orientalia 18. 120-166.), and archaic features of Afro-Asiatic cognate in Akkadian (known for its archaisms), but also in Chadic, Berber, and Cushitic (showing that it is proto-A-A; see Ethiopian B-type verbs. Proceedings of the Fifth International Conference of Ethiopian Studies (Chicago), R. Hess, ed., 101-110. Chicago: University of Illinois Press. 1979; see also A and B-type verbs in Ethiopian and Proto-Semitic. Semitic Studies in Honor of Wolf Leslau, Alan S. Kaye, ed., 679-689. Wiesbaden: Otto Harrassowitz. 1991.). Some of these features are not present in Asian Semitic languages at all, but are distinctions made in Ethiopian Semitic derived from proto-A-A, which runs against the "Sabaean invasion" hypothesis, which happens much to late for these features to be preserved — i.e. 5th c. BC (see A neglected Ethiopian contribution to Semitic and Afroasiatic reconstruction. Proceedings of the Twentieth Meeting of the Berkeley Linguistics Society, 47-56. Berkeley, CA: Berkeley Linguistics Society.) — ዮም (Yom) | contribs • Talk 05:21, 20 June 2006 (UTC)

File source problem with File:Back 1685.JPG

Thank you for uploading File:Back 1685.JPG. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of that website's terms of use of its content. However, if the copyright holder is a party unaffiliated from the website's publisher, that copyright should also be acknowledged.

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
