PS. i don't know why you wanted this debate in english, you ignore the english speaking when they try to aproch the matter, and my english is crappy
I have explained my views in Norwegian in the discussions on no: and on nn:, which I think are both a more suitable language and more suitable places to *debate* these issues than this mailing list (where many of the recipients probably couldn't care less about Norwegian language issues) is. I have not intentionally ignored any approaches from English speakers. In fact, I think that I already have written more than my share of replies in this thread, and I feel that the debate has now become very much out of place in this forum.
This mailing list uses only English (as far as I can tell), so I had to write *the request* in English. Ideally, the entire debate should be held elsewehere, and only the *conclusions* of the Norwegian debate should reach this level.
Those who feel that more debate is needed, are still welcome to join the discussions on the Wikipedia discussion pages, even if they are not able to write in Norwegian! Or they can start a discussion about new solution proposals (and their merits) somewhere else, e.g. in the Metawiki, and just send this list a link.
