Hi,

I partially reverted a couple of your edits. At [[Monumbo language]] you ref'd WALS, but they do not support your claim. In any case, that should probably be at [[Torricelli languages]]. At [[Urim language]] we use Ross as the source; Ethnologue is not reliable. At [[Aruek language]], could you provide a source that the language is extinct? (Also, it may be gone from that one village, but the map at Ethnologue shows it distributed over a fairly wide area.) Thanks — [[User:Kwamikagami|kwami]] ([[User talk:Kwamikagami|talk]]) 06:33, 3 November 2012 (UTC)

:You said that WALS says that Monumbo is a branch of Torricelli. It does not. If the balance of the evidence is that Monumbo is a separate family, we should probably go with that. Can you cite sources for that? We have Laycock, Foley, and Ross attesting to it being a branch of Torricelli.
:Could you point to the pages where Ross says he is not classifying the languages? Because I see several where he says the opposite.
:I'd hardly be surprised if Ethn. is wrong, which is why I did not revert you on Aruek. But since we contradict our sources, we really do need a ref. Do you have anything? Even if it's just a hand-out at a conference you presented at. — [[User:Kwamikagami|kwami]] ([[User talk:Kwamikagami|talk]]) 22:59, 24 December 2012 (UTC)

I notice that a number of your edits have been marked as minor, but I guess that you haven't read [[WP:MINOR|Wikipedia's definition of a minor edit]]? - [[User:David Biddulph|David Biddulph]] ([[User talk:David Biddulph|talk]]) 16:12, 24 December 2012 (UTC)

Hi,

I partially reverted a couple of your edits. At Monumbo language you ref'd WALS, but they do not support your claim. In any case, that should probably be at Torricelli languages. At Urim language we use Ross as the source; Ethnologue is not reliable. At Aruek language, could you provide a source that the language is extinct? (Also, it may be gone from that one village, but the map at Ethnologue shows it distributed over a fairly wide area.) Thanks — kwami (talk) 06:33, 3 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
