Category talk:Dutch loanwords
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] Unencyclopaedic
This is a dictionary category, not an encyclopaedia category. Wiktionary already has a category for words derived from the Dutch language (Category:Dutch derivations), and has had for many months now. Please direct your efforts there, instead. Uncle G 18:36, 31 December 2005 (UTC)
- These types of categories are already fairly well established under Category:English words of foreign origin --Chroniclev 06:27, 1 January 2006 (UTC)
- That does not magically make them encyclopaedia categories. Wikipedia is not a dictionary, even if we can point to places where people are erroneously trying to turn it into one. Uncle G 07:35, 1 January 2006 (UTC)
