Etymology removal

Why was the etymology removed in this edit? 71.66.97.228 19:45, 9 January 2011 (UTC)

It was improperly formatted and out of place. Formatting and order are rather strict here. See WT:ELE. Besides, each of the words in the term is linked to its own page where it is defined. —Stephen ^(Talk) 20:37, 9 January 2011 (UTC)

Always better to take the few seconds necessary to reformat rather than throw away/delete (especially without comment). This is the English-language Wiktionary and, as we all know, English glosses are always very helpful in etymology sections. They would be good in the etymology section of this entry. 71.66.97.228 04:05, 10 January 2011 (UTC)

The editors who check up on bad-format flags are not up to the task of making etymologies for languages that they know nothing about, so their practice is just to remove unacceptable formatting. Once in a while, some editor may insert an attention-request template, but most editors don’t bother with that, since the requests are usually ignored for months or even years. —Stephen ^(Talk) 04:57, 10 January 2011 (UTC)

New entry title?

Should we fix the form given in the etymology and inflection lines? Where did that form come from and is it totally incorrect, or just an alternate form? 71.66.97.228 19:18, 10 January 2011 (UTC)

That one is not used, this one is used. —Stephen ^(Talk) 20:35, 10 January 2011 (UTC)

naaznilgo

Why is naaznilgo part of this term? 71.66.97.228 22:47, 10 January 2011 (UTC)

Because it is incorrect otherwise. —Stephen ^(Talk) 22:56, 10 January 2011 (UTC)

I meant, what is the significance of that word within the complete term (since there's no "lying about" in the original English name of the organization)? 71.66.97.228 23:16, 10 January 2011 (UTC)

Countries lie about the earth. —Stephen ^(Talk) 23:48, 10 January 2011 (UTC)
