Wiktionary talk:Requested entries (English)/Wordlist
RFM discussion: November 2015
The following discussion has been moved from Wiktionary:Requests for moves, mergers and splits (permalink).
This discussion is no longer live and is left here as an archive. Please do not modify this conversation, but feel free to discuss its conclusions.
I was thinking, maybe it would be a good idea moving the new "Wordlist" redlink dumps to the creator's userspace.
Creator: User:Nemo bis. I'll ask him to join this discussion in a moment.
Reason: To seek some consistency with other pages at Wiktionary:Redlink dumps. These are not "real" Requested entries like Wiktionary:Requested entries (English), so I don't think they belong as subpages of it. Also, I find it nice having the username as part of the page title, for easily knowing who is the user behind the idea of each list.
- Wiktionary:Requested entries (English)/Wordlist -> User:Nemo bis/Wordlist
- Wiktionary:Requested entries (English)/Wordlist/Abbreviations -> User:Nemo bis/Wordlist/Abbreviations
- Wiktionary:Requested entries (English)/Wordlist/Proper names -> User:Nemo bis/Wordlist/Proper names
- Wiktionary:Requested entries (English)/Wordlist/Upper -> User:Nemo bis/Wordlist/Upper
- Wiktionary:Requested entries (English)/Wordlist/Words (large) -> User:Nemo bis/Wordlist/Words (large)
- Wiktionary:Requested entries (English)/Wordlist/Words (huge) -> User:Nemo bis/Wordlist/Words (huge)

- I'm not interested in hosting this page as subpage of my userpage. Nemo 09:09, 15 November 2015 (UTC)
- I retract my RFM, then. --Daniel Carrero (talk) 09:17, 15 November 2015 (UTC)
- You can achieve your stated purpose by including "User:Nemo bis" in the category name and "User:Nemo bis" in the category header. DCDuring TALK 14:09, 15 November 2015 (UTC)
- What category name? Or I guess you mean "page name"? What should be the new name of Wiktionary:Requested entries (English)/Wordlist? --Daniel Carrero (talk) 14:24, 15 November 2015 (UTC)
- Category:Requested Entries (English)/User:Nemo bis/Wordlist/... or reversing "User:Nemo bis" and "Wordlist". Keeping the username keeps the provenance visible, rather than relying on the page history. DCDuring TALK 17:47, 15 November 2015 (UTC)
- Note that "Wordlist" is the proper name of the source: http://wordlist.sourceforge.net/ Rather than "User:Nemo bis/Wordlist" you could use "wordlist.sf.net" or similar, seems more descriptive to me. (I really had nothing to do with the choice of those words.) Nemo 15:29, 18 November 2015 (UTC)
- Whatever the name should be, it would also be nice to know more exactly how the list was created (corpus, selection criteria, PoS identification method, etc). Something in the category header would be nice. DCDuring TALK 15:52, 18 November 2015 (UTC)
- The methods look quite diverse, not sure how to summarise them: http://wordlist.aspell.net/scowl-readme/ Nemo 16:31, 18 November 2015 (UTC)
