Cleanup

I added a clean-up tag though I could've added the multipl-issues tag as well. IPA is broken, strange notations |like this| are used, non-standard terminology is employed, and so on and so forth. Jalwikip (talk) 10:14, 16 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

"There are four forms of "be" in Belizean Kriol: |de|, |di|, and the absence of a marker." This seems to amount to three forms of "be"... and the |de| syntax is not something I'm familiar with, and has no references to... — Preceding unsigned comment added by Heimburg (talk • contribs) 15:57, 5 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Bibliography

Biblio is missing for Gibson 1988; Mufwene 1984; Winford 1985; Bailey 1966; Patrick 1995; Lawton 1984; and Irvine 2004. A lot of this article is essentially unreferenced. — Lfdder (talk) 00:35, 7 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Phonology /r/

"5. When /r/ occurs finally, it is always deleted. When it occurs in the middle of a word, it is often deleted leaving a residual vowel length."

Is there a more specific rule for when the /r/ isn't pronounced when in the middle of a word? In many English dialects and accents, the /r/ is deleted and the preceding vowel is lengthened when the /r/ is the coda of a syllable, but when the /r/ is the onset of a syllable, it is pronounced. Examples:

As onset: <auxiliary> = [ɑg.zɪ.lə.ɹi], <interesting> = [ɪn.tə.ɹɛs.tɪŋ], <warrior> = [wɔ.ɹi.ə]

As coda: <carbon> = [kɑ:.bn̩], <marksman> = [mɑ:ks.mn̩], <party> = [pɑ:ɾi]

Perhaps it is the same in Kriol? Anyone know?

So what do you think this is

Reverting WP:TE from likely WP:SPA and WP:SOCK

I have reverted the insertion of WP:UNDUE, WP:BIAS and WP:TE by blocked IP user as likely WP:SPA and possible WP:SOCK of another account. Similar changes were made by this user to several related pages: Afro-Caribbeans, Afro-Jamaicans, Bermuda, Black Bermudians, Cayman Islands, Coromantee, Jamaican Creole, Jamaican Maroon Creole, Mixed-race Caymanians, Tacky's Rebellion, Turks and Caicos Creole, Turks & Caicos, and many, many others.

Having compared the diffs to see if there was anything worth keeping, I have manually restored anything with RSes or which improved prose (if there was anything). Most changes were poorly sourced and added significant bias into the article, or simply removed existing information for no policy-based reason.

For transparency, I will post this on all affected pages. Lewisguile (talk) 07:07, 19 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
