Hallo Wakuran, I was wondering what you meant with your comment "Old Dutch is part of OLF, otherwise, I think Jonathan might have deleted some valid information. Someone knowledgeable could check out the edits..."

As far as I see the only things I really deleted are claims about pommerania and bavaria. Since the origin of Franks is widely attested by contemporain historians and is undisputed by modern scholars I'm not sure what you mean. Could you cure my curiosity? johanthon 21:06, 15 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Well, if the things you removed aren't particularly based on historical sources and evidences, I guess it might have been correct to do so. I admitted I wasn't that knowledgeable. 惑乱 分からん 00:04, 16 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Howdy! A quick request, would you consider using edit summaries more often? It generates extra work for some folks when you don't, especially when cleaning up after a vandal, and the community has even indicated that it considers the subject of edit summaries important enough that it has, on occasion, rejected adminship candidates on that basis alone. So please consider just adding a word or two whenever you edit, it'll make our jobs easier and will reflect positively upon you in the community. Regards, CHAIRBOY (☎) 15:22, 26 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hey Wakuran,

I have noticed that lately your signature contains exclusively non-Latin characters. It's not a problem for me, since my browser supports them, but the official WP guideline (Wikipedia:Signatures) says that you should also include Latin letters because some people's browsers won't support other characters. Of course, this is just a guideline, so it's not necessary, but I wasn't sure if you were aware.

Hi Wakuran. The problem with using dictionaries is that you are bound to find only the Old Icelandic forms of Old Norse words. The Old East Norse that contributed to Old English had different forms from Old Icelandic. The word for "after" was æftiR and not eptir and thus the form for "lift" would have been lyfta and not lypta.--Berig 09:50, 3 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hmmm, alright, I just looked for an attested form, found in popular dictionaries. "Lyfta" turning to "lift" makes more sense to me. The modern Scandinavian descendants are "lyfte" (Danish, Norwegian Bokmål) and "lyfta" (Swedish) so I figured at least some of the Norsemen used "lyfta". Thanks for letting me know. Go ahead and change it back, then. 惑乱 分からん * \)/ (\ (< \) (2 /) /)/ * 09:55, 3 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I am not sure that the albums must be sorted by date of publications in albums, but rather by date of the original publication in magazines (= according to the order of the series). I mean 0->R1->R2->R3->R4->R5->6->7->...->14->15. Don't you think so ? It would be more logical.

You keep undoing edits about the origins of the word 'morning', claiming it to be nonsense. But in fact it's not. Cockerals used to crow early in the day, and without any other word to describe that time of day, the word for chicken was adapted. Over centuries this has been watered down and altered etc, as all words are, resulting in our current word for the time between 12am and 12 pm: morning. I havent reverted your changes just yet. I'd like to discuss it with you first. Thanks. Tom. Tomandhismathcore (talk) 16:55, 5 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

What's your source? After looking up several dictionaries, All information I found indicated that "morning" is derived from Old English morgen and morne, with cognates in other Germanic languages also meaning "morning". Without any source to back it up, it'd be Original Research.惑乱 Wakuran (talk) 13:07, 6 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I first this during an english lecture at college, but I did find it on the net , but forgot to write down the URL. i'll have a hunt. Tomandhismathcore (talk) 22:49, 6 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, well, okay. I maybe should have supposed good faith, sorry. Anyway, after checkning out etymonline.com, several free online English dictionaries, Deutsches Wörterbuch and Svenska Akademiens Ordbok, I couldn't find anything remotely similar to the "chicken" theory. Either it's claimed "of unknown origin", or connected to words in other IE languages reasonably similar connected to light and flickering.
And as for the quote "Morning has broken", I just thought it seemed unnecessary. 惑乱 Wakuran (talk) 23:57, 6 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Wakuran, I saw that you had some dealings with this page and maybe you'll enjoy my addition Jcwf (talk) 00:04, 4 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Wakuran and thank you for the answer in the Old Norse discussion page. I have two additional questions that you might have knowledge to answer:

1) When was the Saga literature e.g. Codex Regius and Flateyjarbók book first was referred to in "learned" literature?

2) What language was the Saga e.g. Codex Regius and Flateyjarbók first written in? Was it in Latin? Thorguds (talk) 11:10, 28 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

1) Sorry, I don't know. I'm not really a scholar.

2) Old Icelandic, which in most respects apparently are nearly identical to Old West Norse, mostly considered a dialect. 惑乱 Wakuran (talk) 12:21, 28 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

You might be interested: Here is some information gathered about the scripts of the old Saga literature. The language is Old Icelandic, but the script is Latin. According to G. M. Gunnlaugsson Latin spead to Iceland and Norway with Christianity in Europe after year 1000 and the oldest documented scripts are dated to middle or late 12th century. The Old Norse scripts are written in Praegothica Latin from around 1200. This script type is likely imported with the Anglo-Saxons, first to Norway and then to Iceland. Source of Information is found in the following sites: 1) http://www.dur.ac.uk/medieval.www/sagaconf/mar.htm 2) http://www.ksbm.oeaw.ac.at/cipl2005/vienne05_12.pdf Apropos: Gothic script style has nothing whatever to do with the Goths, but with Saracenic art of the Crusaders. Gothic is a Latin script style. The Gothic period lasted roughly from 1150 to 1500. Praegothica developed from the earlier Carolingian minuscule. Source of information: Fonts for Latin Paleography by Juan-José Marcos, 2008. 3) http://cg.scs.carleton.ca/~luc/JJMarcos-2008-FontsForLATIN_PALEOGRAPHY.pdf The Saga literature are not pagan scripts of origin, but told by the Christians about the old Nordic pagan religion and culture. "Old Nordic" seems to be a more correct word than "Old Norse" when it comes to religion and culture. Thorguds (talk) 16:22, 28 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, I knew some of that already, but thanks. I think there is much more attested Norse writing in Latin than Runic script, actually. 惑乱 Wakuran (talk) 16:39, 28 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Mixed was once thought to be derived as a backformation from Latin mixtus, but etymologists are now beginning to agree that the word has been in English all along, coming from Middle English mixen from Old English mixian, a variant of miscian (cf ask from OE āscian/āxian). Further analysis points to a Proto-Germanic etymology rather than to an OE borrowing of the Latin word for several reasons: 1). The word is well attested in Germanic (Old English, Middle Low German and Old High German), 2) There are other related words in Germanic that clearly could not have been borrowed from Latin, thus suggesting native origin (e.g. OE māsc/māx "mixture"), 3). The PIE root is found almost ubiquitously in all branches of IE (Greek, Slavic, Celtic, Baltic, Indo-Iranian), leading experts to believe that it must have also existed in Germanic as well. Leasnam (talk) 21:11, 3 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, is currently undergoing a two-month trial scheduled to end 15 August 2010.

Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under pending changes. Pending changes is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial. The list of articles with pending changes awaiting review is located at Special:OldReviewedPages.

When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious vandalism or BLP violations, and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see Wikipedia:Reviewing process). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found here.

If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. Courcelles (talk) 01:12, 18 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

There's a bunch of garble in the lede of Bamse. I can't fix it because don't know anything about the subject, but I see that you had a lot of input into the article. Please look at my comments at Talk:Bamse#Who's Lille Skutt?. Thanks. Thnidu (talk) 09:40, 7 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited 13 Demon Street, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page The Wolf Man. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Thanks for fixing the "diplomat" --> "diplomatist" typo in Jan Romare - that was a brain fart on my part, from reading Swedish sources and thinking partly in Swedish, partly in English.... Most embarrassing, and silly of me. I'm glad you caught it. --bonadea contributions talk 11:28, 9 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

"Diplomatist" redirected to diplomat, so it might be some rare alternate form or something. Anyway, you're welcome. 惑乱 Wakuran (talk) 23:22, 10 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Buck Danny, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page American comics. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Hi Wakuran! I don't know if the link will work from WT, so I post it here: Here's[4] various editions of Kluge's dictionary available in WP Library. –Austronesier (talk) 13:10, 28 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Ah, yeah. I managed to log in and look at the 1967 edition, that seemed to be the one cited. No mention of ship-shaped potties. Thanks. 惑乱 Wakuran (talk) 14:36, 28 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

schiften schw. Ztw. Schiff (s. d.) ist aus seiner alten Bed. 'Gefäß' in die engere 'Nachtgeschirr' überführt worden, die Augustin 1795 als studentisch bezeugt. Aus demselben Kreis stammt schiffen 'den Urin lassen', so seit Kindleben 1781 Stud.-Lex. 169. Von da weithin in die Mundarten gedrungen. Auf Übertragung dieser Bed. beruht das junge es schifft 'es regnet'.

Speaking (on WP:RD/L) of surnames and their etymologies — do I remember right that you are an Arnkvist? (Can there be two Swedes with an interest in nihongo? 😜) I have a great-grandfather of that name, from Arnebysätter near Sunne if memory serves. He became a judge in Wisconsin. —Tamfang (talk) 05:25, 21 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, no. That's someone else. As my surname is rather unique, I'm a bit cautious about sharing it, though. And there are thousands of Swedes with an interest in nihongo. 惑乱 Wakuran (talk) 10:39, 21 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I can't really reply from home on that section of the Lang. Ref. Desk without mangling non-ASCII characters, but see Arabic chat alphabet... -- AnonMoos (talk) 16:53, 1 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

An automated process has detected that when you recently edited César (comics), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Charles Dupuis.

Would you translate your username as "feeling muddlyplied"? 😀 ◅ Sebastian Helm 🗨 15:27, 8 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Not literally, perhaps spiritually. 惑乱 Wakuran (talk) 20:02, 8 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I am really surprised that an editor as experienced as yourself should launch an edit-war. You are surely familiar with the WP:BRD procedure, and I strongly suggest you now comply with it. I've reverted your edit per Status quo ante; that status of the article must remain until a consensus is reached. I hope I don't need to point out that had you been a newish editor, I'd have issued a disruptive editing warning, and not at level 1 either. I have begun a discussion on the talk page; obviously you should have taken this action rather than trying to force through your point of view without rational explanation. I look forward to hearing what you have to say. Chiswick Chap (talk) 18:17, 9 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
