This seems like a grammatically incorrect name to me. -- Prince Kassad 15:54, 26 September 2010 (UTC)
- It seems to me correct, but ambiguous. The scope of "English-based" could be "pidgin" or "languages". I think most would assume "languages". It seems more a stylistic question of avoiding such ambiguity, if possible. I can't think of a good alternative at the moment. DCDuring TALK 16:08, 26 September 2010 (UTC)
- I think the most obvious reading is with the scope including the rest of the title, and it's fine, but a more unambiguous title, if one is desired, might be "Pidgin or creole languages, English-based".—msh210℠ (talk) 16:08, 30 November 2010 (UTC)
