| You may look at https://en.wikipedia.org/Kameshwar_Singh and his predecessors who were officialy Zamindars (landlords) and never real Kings, they were never admitted into the Chamber of Princes (cf. https://en.wikipedia.org/Chamber_of_Princes). | |||
| Also, if you want to discuss an encyclopedic topic, feel free to attract my attention by using article talkpages. I usually do react to e-mails, but as a rule I prefer to keep my interactions regarding Misplaced Pages above-the-board and up for everyone to see. This is also the reason for which I absolutely reject IRC admin discussions, and why I am unsure about the merit of the Misplaced Pages mailing-list. Decisions regarding the administration of Misplaced Pages in my opinion should be made on-wiki, not off. | |||

| Oh please, obviously, you have done way more edits than me and you are trying to balance POVs, which is fine. One one hand you have someone pushing a Sanskritist Hindutva agenda and on the other hand you have me, someone trying to cite and write. Now just because you disagree with both of our edit contents does not mean both are POVs. It still means one is a POV and one is a normal edit. What you are trying to do is clubbing someone like Srkris and me on the same POV side, however, you are obviously missing the point since I do not enlarge labels, do not push POV, do not ruthlessly edit without proper citations, do not exaggerate the contents of the citation and most importantly not refrain from making appropriate talk page points.

| :I do understand what you mean when you talk about the difference between a script and a language. However, two points. Firstly, the script has been allegedly 'deciphered', perhaps not the full lexicon or syntactic structure, but a hint has been provided by all the decipherment claims about what language family or 'language' it belongs to, it is just that there is no consensus. Secondly, it is very much unfalsifiably arguable that this 'script' is not just an arbitrary collection of random symbols and that it corresponds to the writing system of a language, the decipherment claims of which have no consensus. It is a code, the characters stand for something, that much we can say, since it has a system. Certain characters corresponding to a certain ], which follow a pattern. You have a set of characters in pottery, another set in clay jars, etc. If all the disclaimers are mentioned and the claims also listed, it makes several things clear - that there is no consensus as to whether this corresponds to a language, or if it just a script, or if it is just garbage - all these viewpoints are presented in the ] page. We make a cross reference to that and provide a very brief summary of the decipherment claims. I hope this helps. ] (] '''·''' ]) 03:18, 20 November 2008 (UTC) | |||

| Hi, I'm one of the main users that works on the Potential Superpower pages as well as other Power in International Relation pages. I've noticed that you put up some things like merging, but didn't post it in the talk pages. However, I'd like to inform you that Potential Superpowers has it's own subsection. But since the entire thing of Academics discussing what's a superpower and, and what's a potential superpower and not. And unless we want Potential superpower taking up half the superpower pages, then we shouldn't merge. Lastly, the reason why it's considered Potential is because according to experts in the field of IR, Polisci, Geopolitics, these specific countries are the ones that are most talked about of what could be the next superpower, due to them having good ______ and ______, which falls under the futurology tag you added. However, some of the potential superpowers like China and EU, the entire community is mixed about those. For instance, Fareed Zakaria believes that China and EU are rising and might become superpowers in the near future, while Parag Khanna believes that China and EU are already superpower. And since the whole community is divided among that issue, it's considered a potential superpower. While some IR/Polisci/Geopolitic experts believe that America isn't a superpower any more, the majority still believe that America is still a superpower. Being a Potential Superpower is a category of power as it's more then a great power but not quite yet a superpower. ] (]) 01:04, 20 November 2008 (UTC) | |||

| on the kind of model we should use in dealing with pages that are being constructed to explore triliteral or triconsonantal roots in Semitic languages. I'm thinking of ] and ]. You have a broad and deep familiarity with pages on linguistics, and a glance at the issue to provide us with a larger perspective would be much appreiciated. | |||
| The question is whether on every page a Hebrew paradigm should be used to illustrate the root, or not. I think a comparative paradigm is useful on a mother page e.g. ] to which subpages can be linked, while on each sub-page, discursive description of each language's particular derivations is more economical than rote, and predictable paradigms. | |||
| The alternative appears to me to invite several exponents or speakers of each semitic language to follow up by plunking in an illustrative conjugation repeatedly, to parallel the precedent set with the introduction of Hebrew, a principle that would tend to distract attention from aspects of pure philology and the semantic-cultural 'Sprachfeld', and push the pages into ethnic elbowing for space and attention, of the usual kind - a danger I, for one, see in that proposal. Still, I may be wrong, and would appreciate guidance. Thank you.] (]) 14:50, 20 November 2008 (UTC) | |||

| In my view, dedicated articles on specific rules need to remain the exception, viz. reserved for cases of extremely notable roots. Less notable roots should be relegated to ]. | |||
| Once we have established that we do want a Misplaced Pages article on a specific root, we should of course try and collect material from as many Semitic languages as we can. | |||

| In dictionaries , the word Syriac as a noun means only the language, much as the nouns "English" and "French" do. I'm sure you are aware of that, but my point is that dictionaries are probably a better reference. ] (]) 19:58, 21 November 2008 (UTC) | |||

Fake Royalties Of India in Misplaced Pages
You may look at https://en.wikipedia.org/Kameshwar_Singh and his predecessors who were officialy Zamindars (landlords) and never real Kings, they were never admitted into the Chamber of Princes (cf. https://en.wikipedia.org/Chamber_of_Princes). I belong to that region and I do not want to quarrel with that family which was the biggest landlord of India and Kshatra Singh (Thakur) had boughgt the title Maharaja in the beginning of 19th century but this family never had any State or boundary.
