This is confusing, or it had me going for a moment. I see several things in this category that ought to (I think) be under Dialectology. But another question is whether a category for dialects of languages (if I now understand correctly that is what this Dialects category is for) makes any sense. Isn't it better to list dialects under their respective languages??

SO let me propose the elimination of this category.--A12n 01:06, 8 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
