Old and Middle Greenlandic may not exist
[edit]"Middle Greenlandic" appears to be a geographical/dialectological distinction rather than a historical one. For "Old Greenlandic" I find some references to "Old Greenlandic orthography", which seems to be synonymous to "Kleinschmidt orthography". Certainly the language has developed since Kleinschmidt made his orthography, but do any scholars periodize it in this way? The articles were made by @DerekWinters:, who was banned shortly afterwards. @Maunus:, do you know anything about this?__Gamren (talk) 15:30, 29 December 2017 (UTC)
- To me it seems silly to have these topics as separate articles. There is very little chance of them being developed into something informative. I would redirect to the history section of the main article on Greenlandic. I don't know of any scholars writing about periods of Greenlandic in this way - but then it has been some years ago since I really followed the literature. But without sources, there is no justification for the existnence of these articles.·maunus · snunɐɯ· 10:19, 30 December 2017 (UTC)
