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.
