Merge with Sanskrit_nouns?

edit

Is a separate page needed for these two bits of explanation? Not much more to be said than what's already there. I propose to merge this with Sanskrit nouns. Dyḗwsuh₃nus (talk) 17:28, 28 February 2021 (UTC)Reply

@Dyḗwsuh₃nus: Or maybe with Vedic Sanskrit grammar? This page is linked there in a hatnote. I agree that this is unnecessarily and somewhat randomly split out into a separate article. –Austronesier (talk) 23:12, 2 March 2021 (UTC)Reply
Yes, fully agree with you, this fits more correctly in Vedic Sanskrit grammar, thanks for pointing this out. I'm working my way through the different grammar pages, and have a bunch of stuff planned out for the Vedic grammar page, I'll incorporate this when I get to that stage, so this page can be slated for deletion. Thanks very much for your response, best, Dyḗwsuh₃nus (talk) 23:29, 2 March 2021 (UTC)Reply
@Dyḗwsuh₃nus: It'll great if you can take care of Vedic Sanskrit grammar. In its current state, it is undersourced, flip-flops between -ḥ and -s for the nominative ending, and frankly, the Devanagari text bloats the tables, so I would be the last to object if you'd throw them out. –Austronesier (talk) 12:05, 3 March 2021 (UTC)Reply
Thank you @Austronesier:, yes I'm on it. Across the various Vedic and Classical Sanskrit grammar pages, I intend to reduce or eliminate both bloat as you say and redundancy, especially the tabular data, and introduce a consistency of approach to them all. (I'm also considering limiting the Vedic grammar tables to those elements unique to Vedic.) Dyḗwsuh₃nus (talk) 14:28, 3 March 2021 (UTC)Reply
Hello @Austronesier: et al, this page should soon be ready for deletion. I'm thinking of moving this conversation itself to Vedic_Sanskrit_grammar for posterity! Let me know any comments. --- Dyḗwsuh₃nus (talk) 18:36, 8 March 2021 (UTC)Reply
@Dyḗwsuh₃nus: Cool! When you are done, just do the following steps:
  1. Replace the content of the article with "#REDIRECT [[Vedic Sanskrit grammar#Root ī-stem, vṛkī́s and devī́- feminines]]", with the edit summary "Merged with [[Vedic Sanskrit grammar]]"
  2. Place a comment line "<!---[[Devi and Vrkis feminines]] redirects here--->" at the beginning of the subsection Root ī-stem, vṛkī́s and devī́- feminines with the edit summary "Merged from Devi and Vrkis feminines per Talk:Devi and Vrkis feminines#Merge with Sanskrit_nouns?. See history of that page for attribution".
This talk page will remain as part of the redirect page, so you won't have to copypaste the discussion. –Austronesier (talk) 18:55, 8 March 2021 (UTC)Reply
Excellent, good to know about these features, better than plain old deleting. All done now. Thanks @Austronesier: for all your help. -Dyḗwsuh₃nus (talk) 19:40, 8 March 2021 (UTC)Reply
