Good morning. I am interested in hydronymy as it looks the language of prehistoric Europe is reflected therein. I left a message on the wikiproject rivers talkpage, just looking for editors with similar interests to exchange information. I have discovered the so called old european hydronymy is not limited to Europe but has many correspondences in Iran, India and furhter away so I think this disproves the current scholarly etymological interpretations. Presently I am also trying to research Bengal and Burma. In Romania I find the abundance of material particularly interesting, as e.g. the long list of rivers in Alb-. Aldrasto11 ( talk) 10:36, 3 June 2013 (UTC) reply

Dear Mr. Filotti, thank You very much for your kind reply. It has come as a very welcome surprise to receive such a polite and detailed reply. It is also lucky that You have been working in those places I wish to research and it is very interesting for me to learn that Kara Su is a Turkish hydromym meaning black water. This subject is very tricky as some words may be significant in and thus be attributed to different languages as a consequence receiving different etymologies.

E. g. You write that the rivers in alb- derive from Latin albus or a similar word in other Indoeuropean languages. After reading some works of Italian linguists G. Alessio and C. Battisti I am now convinced that this word originally meant highland or mountain. This hydronym is sometimes found as an oronym, as in Switzerland in the massif Albula, or in ancient times in Albios oros, Eastern Alps. Also it used to mean fortified hill or town (oppidum) as in Italian toponyms Albingaunum, Albium Intemelium, Alba Pompeia, Alba Longa, Alba Decilia etc. In Romania there is a town named Alba Julia. All this points to the impossibility of understanding the word as originally meaning white. This is just an example.

As for other river river names I am starting to consider the possility that some of them that recur frequently from Spain to Burma may have been reinterpreted, perhaps many times in history, according to the linguistic competence and views of erudits. I highlighted this in my post on the project talk page. I wish to thank you again and I am sure I will meet many hydronyms in Romania and elsewhere about which I may ask you about in order to get more information.

Once again thank You very much for your helpfulness. Aldrasto11 ( talk) 01:37, 5 June 2013 (UTC) reply

Thank you for the explanation. Apulum is a toponym worth researching: as a first thought I would associate it with ap water (in Celtic or Sanskrit) or perhaps the Iapudes of the Balkans, who have an omonymous in the Apuli of Italy. I believe the Carpatians are a mine of names that linguists can study with great profit. Aldrasto11 ( talk) 05:11, 5 June 2013 (UTC) reply

Dear Mr. Filotti, I compiled a list of hydronyms that i consider of interest to the issue of the Ancient European Hydronymy. I left it on the wikiproject linguistics talk page and leave it here too for your convenience. I append some remarks below.

India:

Mula, Hoara, Surma, Someshwari, Dorika, Son, Sarayu, Gori Ganga, Mandal, Sabari, Sileru, Varada, Sal, Savitri, Som, Sebarmati, Durduria, Dras, Neelum, Suru, Beas or Vipasha, Khambhat, Son/Saun/Sawan, Pamba, Mandovi, Ulhas.

Pakistan:

Malir, Malamantus (ancient), Indus/Sindhus, Neelum, Soan/Swan/Sawan/Sohan, Haro, Lora Haro, Stora Haro, Neelan, Swat/Suvastu (Vedic), Sarayu (Vedic), Gauri (Vedic), Susoma (Vedic), Sohan, Saraswati (Vedic).

Iran:

Karum, Karkheh, Shaur, Sirwan, Ghareh Soo, Alwand, Mand, Shur, Aras, Balha, Tulun, Alamut.

Syria:

Orontes, Wadi Jerrah, Barada, Awaj, Arwand.

Burma

Salween/ (in Thai: Salwine/Salawin)

Thailand

Swaria/Sawan

Cambodia

Tonle' Saap

Ancient Anatolia

Paduandus/Podandus, Purandas, Pallaconta, Saraconta, Simoeis-entos.

The hydronimic bases studied by Krahe are: Aga, Aisia/Eisa/Isa, Ala, Alba, Ara, Arga, Ava/Avos, Drava/Dravos, Kara/Karos, Pala/Pola/ Pela, Sala, Sara/Sora/Sera/Soros, Sava/Savos, Tara/Taros, Vara/Vera/Varos, Visa.

He realised river names are created from these bases with the addition of suffixes: (a, o), ia/io, ua/uo, ma/mo, na/no, ra/ro, la/lo, nta/nto/ntia/ntio,sa/so/sia/sio, sta/sto, ka/ko, ta/to.

Also he noted the recursive feature of suffixation in forming new names:

Ava+sa> Ausa new basis for >Ausava/Ausona/Auseros/Ausentia.

Ala+ma> Alma >Almia/Almana/Almara/Almonta

Ara+ma> Arma > Armena/Armona/Armonta/Armontia/Armisa/Armisia etc.

As you may note in the river names I have listed some are easily put in correspondence with those of Krahe's list, some are not.

Among the root bases I added are: *s(u)(v) as it can be collapsed with *sav; gor/gaur as in Italian gora stream or ditch, Po di Goro, Codigoro; *hoar collapsible with with *sar; *mand generally meaning animals as mules or cattle; *son collapsible with *sav in the instances; names in bar and dur can be seen as variants of *var and *drav; *mal, *mul, *mur, *tul, *vel identified by Italian linguists F. Ribezzo and C. Battisti as Mediterranean bases meaning highland, mountain, round or conic hill, border mountain, peak etc. Stora is similar to the many Stura or Astura of Italy and Spain. Beas or Vipasha looks very close to Vipava, on the border of Slovenia and Italy. Sil has correspondence with Sele in Campania, Sil in Spain, Selleis-entos in Greece. Ulhas with Volas Sinus, Ullapool. I also added river names rooted in *nar and *nest as widespread: Nar in Sabine now Nera, Arabic nahar river, Iguvine Tables "naharcom nomen", near Antiochia too. *Nest: Nestravantys in the Baltic and in Latium Praeneste. In Romania I found Nera, and Nereghis, Nergana, Nerganda, Nermed, Nermes; related to *nest Netada, Netedu, Neteri, Netis, Netot.

Hello Afil. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Râul Marca, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: It is important to leave a redirect behind after moving an article so links to the old name continue to work. Thank you. —  Malik Shabazz  ^Talk/ _Stalk 02:19, 5 July 2013 (UTC) reply

Regarding your denial for the deletion of Râul Marca, I understand your rationale. However, if there are any links to the old name I redirect them to the new name so that there are no links left. In this case, it is my error, I uploaded the article five minutes before and there are no old links, except your comment. It really makes no sense to keep names in foreign languages in the English version, especially as there are no links. Afil ( talk) 02:28, 5 July 2013 (UTC) reply

There is consensus. If you're unclear on the definition, see WP:CON: "consensus on Wikipedia does not mean unanimity". In previous discussions, the reaction has either been to endorse my position (particularly by those who know about the situation) or apathy. Look at what happened with the Help Desk discussion you initiated: I intervened, the discussion remained on the board for four days, but no one (other than yourself) said a word to contradict me.

You also seem unclear on the definition of vandalism, as set out by WP:VAN: "any addition, removal, or change of content in a deliberate attempt to compromise the integrity of Wikipedia". Obviously, that is inapplicable to mere shifting around of information for structural purposes.

"Please refrain from eliminating information which you do not find relevant": I did not consciously do that. If I did, no one is preventing you from restoring the information.

In closing, I'd like to say that your arguments thus far have been based on a false premise. You argue, persistently, that "villages in other countries have articles, but not in Romania". What I have argued is that we should not have articles below the smallest administrative unit. I've known for a while that that is the case for the Philippines and for France, examples you have conveniently ignored. But it's also the case for Germany, for Italy, for Spain, for Slovakia, even for neighboring Hungary. You see, all those little villages in Hungary with stub articles - Tiszagyulaháza and Kaskantyú and Nemessándorháza and so on - they all have their own mayor, their own town council, their own administrative apparatus. Just like the Romanian communes. (That Hungary chooses to call them "villages" is immaterial.) And so you will have to enlarge your list of countries against which Wikipedia "discriminates", from Romania and Moldova, to include many of their European counterparts. - Biruitorul ^Talk 14:08, 18 July 2013 (UTC) reply

Hi Afil,

I think you created most of the 9,000 or so Romanian river articles on this wiki, so thought that it would be courteous to ask you about some changes I am proposing. For those articles that are marked as having an unknown importance and are still stubs for WP:Rivers (8,000 or so), I am proposing that the importance class for these is marked as Low by a Bot. My main reason is to reduce the amount of river stub articles that are listed as having an unknown importance. At the same time the template for WP: Romania can also be changed from unknown importance to Low, thereby reducing the number of Romania articles listed as unknown by 8,000 as well.

Can you let me know if you OK with this proposal?, I will watch here for any reply.-- Jokulhlaup ( talk) 16:29, 21 June 2014 (UTC) reply

Dear Mr. Filotti, I am studying Krahe's ancient hydroymy. I think that probably the roots *Var(a), *Vis(a) and *Sar(a) are related to *Ar(a) and *Is(a). Now in Romania there are numerous river names that contain these roots, but also the two well known towns of Arad and Varadin, now Oradea. The WP articles though do not give their etymology. Arad is very widespread in the ME (Iran etc.) and Varad may be related to a Sanscrit word for water (in India too there is a river named Varada btw). I am sorry if I troubled you, hope you can give me some information on the issue. Aldrasto11 ( talk) 05:32, 14 December 2014 (UTC) reply

Thank you for your kind reply. I agree that hydronyms and other place names are not originally Indoeuropean as the case in point may show, rather they are in part shared by the Indoeuropean, Uralic, Berber, Semitic, Basque etc. That is, even if the word var/vari is Sanscrit and means water in that language, it may have been received from a Preindoeuropean language common to many other Eurasian peoples. It is btw what I am trying to prove. Aldrasto11 ( talk) 01:03, 28 December 2014 (UTC) reply

Salut.

Recent, am început să creez articole despre români decedați în 2016 și m-am alăturat și proiectului de pe enwiki. Am observat ca la „Assessmentul” unor proiecte mai mari, cum ar fi WikiProject Video Games articolele de tip carte, categorie, dezambiguizare, fișier, portal, proiect, redirecționare, casetă sau draft nu au categorii de importanță, așa că am început să le mut și pe cele din WikiProject Romania la NA, dar se pare că aici lipsesc Draft, Project, Portal, Book și (unul pe care l-am întâlnit doar o dată) Future. Cum se pot crea și acestea?

Ar trebui creat un „ghid” mai clar pentru nivelul calității și importanței unui articol? De exemplu, sunt destui sportivi olimpici de care majoritatea românilor nu au auzit, cu toate că au obținut medalii și pot fi foarte cunoscuți în domeniul sportului respectiv. Asemănător și cercetătorilor, academicienilor etc. Gheorghe Hagi e clasificat de proiectul Football cu High, asta ar insemna că pe proiectul Romania ar trebui să fie Top? Doresc să continui cu modificările și clasificările de genul acesta, însă nu sunt sigur cum e cel mai corect și am zis să cer o sugestie înainte de a face multe modificări care s-ar putea dovedi greșite.

I'm finding that English-language sources about this cave are reporting a length of 20.5 km, but the two Romanian news sources I've found say 11,000 m. Google Translate doesn't do well enough with Romanian so I can't tell if it's a translation error or what. Is it possible for you to have a look at these two Romanian sources and tell me what they're saying about the length?

However, keep in mind that even on the talk page of an article, you should limit your discussion to improving the article.

I saw your comments on this category talk page. The category was deleted because it has been empty for a week. If you know that a category has been emptied out of process, you can prevent the deletion of a category by assigning at least ONE appropriate page to that category. If it contains one page/article, it will not be deleted.

If you see a vandal miscategorizing pages, please report them to an admin or at Wikipedia:Administrator intervention against vandalism so that they can be evaluated and blocked if they are seen to be doing damage to the project. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 00:39, 3 September 2019 (UTC) reply

You might want to use the Wikipedia:Content translation tool in the future; it takes care of attribution, links, and keeps your translations around in a place where they aren't at risk of deletion.

An article you recently created, Andrei Vladimirovich Korchak, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. ( ?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed ( verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

The article Gheorghe Pohrib has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Unable to find any in depth coverage in RIS

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited List of members of the Technical Sciences Academy of Romania, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Ion Bostan, Dumitru Popescu and Nicolae Petrescu. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)
