government department's website itself. This is especially the case when this government department is doing it's own research based on other sources in addition to its own. Therefore, NONE of you have provided a single reason to exclude the information from the Gaelic Affairs website, nor it's use as clearly stating that the Gaelic-speaking community in Nova Scotia is largely Scottish Gaelic speakers, as anyone with even basic knowledge on this subject knows full well. This is based on extensive census data which shows 1/3 of Nova Scotians have ancestors from the Scottish Highlands and Islands, wth an even alrger number from Scotland in general. There has never been a an Irish community in Nova Scotia even close to as large as the Scottish community. This is reflected in census data on ancestry today, as well as those in the past. THe largest ethnic group in "New Scotland" has been the Scots since the early 19th century, with specifically Gaelic-speaking Scots from the Highlands and Islands settling in the Gaelic-speaking communities that exist today. This dialect of "Canadian Gaelic" is a SCOTTISH Gaelic dialect, virtually indistinguishable from certain dialects in Scotland, like in the Western Isles. IT has nothing to do with Irish (Irish Gaelic). The Irish were never a large population component in Nova Scotia, but were a larger presence in Newfoundland. The Irish Gaelic that was once spoken in Canada was
165:, or bothered to read the information on the website with the link I provided, you'd see how most of original settlers in the 18th and 19th centuries were not only from Scotland, but a large portion of which were specifically from the Highlands and Islands, and were Gaelic-speaking. The source specifically mentions how in the early 20th century over 50,000 Nova Scotians were native Gaelic-speakers, while in the mid 19th century it was as high as 80,000. Combined with those speakers in Prince Edward Island and in Ontario, the total number in Canada in the mid-late 19th century was over 100,000. At one time, there was a (defeated) bill tabled in the Canadian parliament in the 1890's to make Gaelic the third official language of Canada (after English and French). I also described your edits as belligerent, not you as a person, so it was not a personal attack. 295:
articles are to be the only sources used. This is the official government office for the Scottish Gaelic (it is Scottish Gaelic, not "Canadian" Gaelic) community in Nova Scotia, and its information IS based on actual scholarly research, including that done by the government. The website is an important source stating that most of speakers are Scottish Gaelic speakers, and very few Irish Gaelic speakers were in Nova Scotia (most were in Newfoundland). That is the point of this reference, as it cites the enormous migration to Nova Scotia from the Highlands and Islands of Scotland, with 1/3 having descent from these Scottish Gaelic-speaking migrants. As for the genealogical information, I will change it to contain the information about the former number of Gaelic-speakers in Nova Scotia.
523:). Finally, the fact this OFFICIAL government office is "deeply connected" to those in the community it represents is irrelevant. Every specific government department is strongly connected to the industries and communities they represent, whether economic sectors, ethnic communities, constituencies, etc. Government officials are democratically elected by the people here in the west, while public servants are hired from our communities, so of course they are connected. Also, the "quality" of academic papers is irrelevant to their simple inclusion, if they are considered a valid, official or peer-reviewed source. Your personal issues, are again, not sufficient for their outright exclusion from being used in this article. 324:
they are L1 speakers; fluent; learned in high school for a year; can say 'hello' and 'goodbye'? What has being of Gaelic decent got to do with language speaking ability? In many cases, statistical census data is not a secondary source-it is primary-and as such is often used incorrectly to make unjustified statements of fact. The source material used is interesting and of use, but I think it would be better used elsewhere, and in a different way, within this article. More generally, this dispute neatly highlights the problem faced by many language articles in WP where editors try, in good faith, to highlight a particular language.
481:. If you drill down into some of these (I have read only a sample) there are citations of academic work. I suggest that the IP editor trawls through all these citations that appear relevant to the main parts of the website, read the cited works, and see which of them include facts that support their intended edits to this article. The next step is to judge the quality of those academic papers (the most obvious test is to see how often they are cited elsewhere). Then a decision can be taken on the accuracy of the information. That would leave ensuring appropriate balance in the article ( 351:
specific time. Like Catriona, you obviously did not read the actual source. I'm getting fed up with this. Your unwillingness to actually investigate included, official, valid sources based on statistical and other data, is not my concern or a relevant reason to override my edits. I already explained further above, if you actually bothered to read, the number of Gaelic-speakers in Nova Scotia in the recent past IS RELEVANT to this article, and thus the number of people who immigrated and who are descended from in the community today is a valid piece of information.
1852:, however the source is referring to all forms of Gaelic, not just Scottish Gaelic. I have a vague and possibly unreliable memory of hearing someone from the Gàidhealtachd (can't remember if they were a speaker or which area they were from), to my surprise, maintaining that their locale employed the "ˈɡeɪlɪk" pronunciation in English but otherwise have only ever heard "ˈɡalɪk" in Scotland. Is this correct and should not the text in this passage reflect only the Scottish pronunciation, referenced appropriately of course? 108:
The source also contains linguistic information about the Scottish Gaelic spoken in Nova Scotia. The genealogical information discusses how common Scottish Gaelic once was in Nova Scotia, with over 50,000 native speakers in the early 20th century in Nova Scotia alone, with one-third of the modern population descending from the originally Gaelic-speaking settlers who came from the Highlands and Islands of Scotland. She apparently didn't bother to read the source before making re-verts in a belligerent manner.
457:
would probably be easier to come to a consensus if we focused on a piece of it at a time. For instance, I think all of us would like to see historical statistics on the number of Gaelic speakers in Canada over time, so long as such statistics are cited to a scholarly source and put in perspective (i.e. L1 vs L2, doubts about survey methods (if applicable), and the distinction between Irish and Scottish Gaelic, which wasn't consistently applied on Canadian censuses).
1909:)) (There are other very favourable reviews of this book, including by Allan Macinnes - the credentials of this as a crucial work are well established.) So it may be right also to mention Devine's subsidiary points about improved communications into the Highlands by steamships, or the existence of English speaking towns, such as Inverness (in 1704), set in a Gaelic-speaking countryside. It would be wrong to ignore Devine's work on the subject - especially as 31: 1644:. If there is still no clear preference or if ambiguity will arise then spell it out: Irish Gaelic, Scottish Gaelic, with each article able to use a regional common use version, eg Irish or Gaelic, but that will be explained in the lead and be in context. The same reasoning should apply to redirects. Without a clear world-wide use preference Gaelic should not redirect to Scottish Gaelic but to a disambig site. 2038:, which is also what Oftedal used in his transcriptions. Even to me (someone whose initial voiceless stops aren't aspirated and still distinguish between voiced and voiceless stops) it sounds pretty much halfway between /g/ and /k/, which is true to initial Gaelic stops overall. That's an allophone level, though, so probably not something we should put in the introduction. 1905:: "Thirdly, the notion that the decline of Gaelic can be explained monocausally by reference to destructive alien forces neglects the important influence, clearly brought out here, of the integration of the Highlands and Highlanders in wider Scottish society."(Scottish Economic & Social History, Volume 15 Issue 1, Page 116-118, ISSN 0269-5030 Available Online Sep 2010 ( 552: 216:"In the early 1900s, as many as 50,000 Nova Scotians spoke Gaelic as their mother tongue...Gaelic language and culture remain distinct parts of Nova Scotia’s identity today. Many Nova Scotians are descendants of Gaelic settlers. The connection to Nova Scotia’s Gaelic heritage continues on. It is shared in traditions, heard in music, and experienced in communities." 491:: "Gaelic Affairs is deeply connected to the community it serves...". I think that acknowledges that those who work for this government initiative are strong advocates of the Gaelic language, which, whilst being commendable, also removes this organisation from being independent commentators on the subject. Hence the need to look at peer-reviewed academic work. 844: 602:
research, including the mere inclusion of Gaelic Affairs under the "External Links" section. I'm not sure where her hostility to Scottish Gaels and Scottish-Canadians comes from. It was myself who started this discussion here to point out her objections as irrelevant, while she never made a single attempt to start discussion.
2099:
Out of interest in not starting an edit war, the line indicating that Scottish Gaelic is "descended" from Middle Irish is blatantly untrue, while the two languages of Irish and Gaelic separated from each other in the Middle Irish period, Irish, Gaelic, and Manx are ultimately descendant of OLD Irish.
1596:
Eh, take it to talk on the page in question, not a personal talk page for starters. My view is, for "Gaelic" to redirect to a general page is accurate, for "Gaelic language" to do so you have to bring a really good case why you want to change something that has been stable a long time. Something that

This is surreal. I'm not trying to change anything, as repeatedly mentioned I don't - factually - disagree with anything and I have not made an edit; solely talk page comments about your warring edits and bizarre demands, which fly in the face of policy on verifiability.

I was not suggesting your use of multiple IPs was to game 3RR as it is evident to anyone that you are the same user (though signing up for an account would erase any doubt on the matter).

I'm NOT taking sides here, I feel both the IP editor and those being cautious about unverified claims should all have made more efforts to see if there ARE bona fide sources to back up the 50,000 figure rather than pouring effort into lengthy Talk posts. It took me about 5 minutes on the internet to

As a cultural website intended to promote tourism, I would be hesitant to consider the website as RS for genealogical information of descent.

There is no discussion of the view expressed by Tom Devine that much of preferential enthusiasm for learning English came from the Highland Gaelic-speaking population (as opposed to "the Celtic societies in the cities and the professors of Celtic at the Universities") This is closely related to the

In the template itself, it has "States" (prints as "Native to") and "Regions" (prints as "Regions"). States is set to UK and Canada, Regions to Scotland and Nova Scotia. This organization makes sense to me, although I suppose we could change it so "States" is Scotland and Nova Scotia, "Regions" are

talking about the Irish language. Ans to your point above, North Americans rarely refer to the Irish language as "the Gaelic language" but they do commonly refer to it as "Gaelic". I understand this may be a misnomer, but the whole point of hatnotes is to redirect confused laypersons, right? There
107:
An editor named Catriona keeps re-verting material that has long been in this article, and further clarifications I've added, because of her personal views on "vagueness". This is irrelevant to inclusion of an accepted, official government source on data of Scottish Gaelic speakers in Nova Scotia.
1502:
Only Scottish Gaelic is commonly referred to as "Gaelic", Irish Gaelic mostly is just called Irish and Manx Gaelic is usually just Manx, so redirecting Gaelic language to Scottish Gaelic is appropriate as it's the primary usage. For the same reason, the hatnote is also appropriate on the Scottish

says : "Irish is regarded as a Celtic language, belonging to the larger family of languages known as Indo-European. Irish belongs to the branch of Insular Celtic known as Goidelic, which comprises Irish-Gaelic, Scottish-Gaelic and Manx." I presume this is what is taught in Irish schools: a clear

You will get different answers depending on whether you use "Gaelic" on its own or "the Gaelic language" as a string. If I search for "the Gaelic language" on Google, page 1 has just one result referring to Irish, page 2 and 3 none at all, page 4 has 3, page 5 none (one to Manx). You need to be

This may be true in Scotland, but in the U.S., Canada, and perhaps elsewhere, the Irish language is very commonly called "Gaelic", so I think you need to take a more global view on people's misconceptions and common confusions. Even just listening to the first 15 or so YouTube clips

Thanks for that. Personally, I am happy to sit on the fence on this one. What I do see is another example of ambiguity caused by the use of terms that are open to different interpretations depending on the situation, eg: state, nation, country.
