Bonjour, I didn't delete the Philippe article about Racialisme, but just move it in the talk page because I didn't found this word neither in my dictionnary nor in "Le Dictionnaire de l'academie francaise" that mean this world not exist officilly in french language. After some search over the web, I found many mention of this word so I proposed an new article to explain this racist theory. I don't know how to handle word that not exist in french, but if I decide to create a new word, "ekojeslker" for exemple, then can I create an article on it in an encyclopedia ???
Aoineko,
I have no dictionary at home other than Le Petit Larousse, so I am gonna ask you something
Please, could you check for me whether the word "biodiversit�" is in there ?
Yes ? good news :-)
No ? then, please, go ahead, delete about 50% of what I wrote in about 6 months. For it is all about biodiversit�. Please go to my page, and check my articles. You will probably find out about half of the things I talk about are NOT in the dic. Please, do remove all of them. DO !
Do you really think that just because they are not in the dic, they do not exist, and have no room on wikipedia ???
Now check out the words on google, and see where the real life it. Not in the page of an old grey book.
Why is that ? Because, our academicians are old, and they work slowly. Most theories, most concepts developped in the past 30 years (how old are you ?) are not in the dic yet. But they exist. People have been working on them for years, written books...
It is not because they are not in the academia book they should not be there, if enough people care about them, that gives them more reality than your grey and rusty book.
That's why the net is good stuff. It is up-to-date.
So, please, don't forget to check in other places that the french dict to check if something exist. And check reality of existence of words, BEFORE assuming they don't exist...
Another thing, I never say anything on computer science or egyptology, because I know very little about these fields. I think (hope ?) you would admit I know more about biology and genetics and race than you do ?
I will rework the racialism article. I am far from an expert (very far :-)), but I hope *very much* you will accept what I will write.
Do you know why
Sure, Philippe is a polite person, but dont forget what he wrote :
In Racisme, jan 15, 2003 :
"Il semble que certaines races soient superieures aux autres races pour certains aspects; par exemple, les noirs courent plus vite que les blancs."
Translation by "Babel Fish Translation" :
"It seems that certain races are higher than the other races for certain aspects; for example, the blacks run more quickly than the white."
In Antisemitisme, jan 27, 2003 :
"Historiquement, il existe de nombreux motifs pour justifier l'antisemitisme, incluant des facteurs sociaux, economiques, nationaux, politiques, raciaux et religieux.."
Translation by "Babel Fish Translation" :
"Historically, there are many reasons to justify the anti-semitism, including factors social, economic, national, political, racial and religious."
In Antisemitisme, jan 27, 2003 :
"Les juifs sont des personnes d'une race distinctement differente des autres personnes. La discrimination basee sur une telle distinction est donc valide."
Translation by "Babel Fish Translation" :
"The Jews are people of a race distinctly different from the other people. The discrimination based on such a distinction is thus valid"
I apologize french wikipedians for there rudness with Philippe, but we don't tolerate this kind of sentences on the french wikipedia !
Then improve them, instead of removing them. And also improve your way of talking to people who don't think the way you do. That might help Philippe to be more concilliant - as I think he was in the past two days.
