Talk:Neologism

The following recently deleted link is moved here:

• Langmaker.com, a regularly updated directory of over 1,100 invented languages and neographies.

According to the root link, http://www.langmaker.com, the Langmaker website has been "temporarily" disabled. It is moved here so that it may be checked from time to time to see if it has been re-enabled. Then it may be added back to the article. – Paine Ellsworth ^CLIMAX! 19:28, 14 December 2013 (UTC)

It's interesting to note that the Langmaker site has been archived. The web archive is at:

• Archive.IS
• Langmaker's "About" page, the link that was deleted
• Langmakers Main Page from June 2008

Apparently, the wiki-ish website is down for the count. These archived pages are searchable and might still prove useful. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Paine Ellsworth (talk • contribs) 00:15, 16 December 2013 (UTC)

The current page states "is any newly formed word, term, or phrase that nevertheless has achieved popular or institutional recognition and is becoming accepted into mainstream language". Nevertheless what? It isn't clear even in the initial edit https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Neologism&oldid=1158732740

It's a bit odd that an article around linguistics has held a semantically meaningless summary for a year. I have no formal background in the field and hesitate to correct the grammar as I'm quite certain I'll fall foul of the classic trope. Youse lot generally think ussins need to wise the bap, so I'll houl me wisht.
