edupedia.pl (merged from Talk:Usus)[edit]

This article cites a web source at edupedia.pl. I do not speak Polish, but it appears to me that the source consists of user-generated content (note the "Edytuj" buttons on the page). Could some Polish reader verify whether the cite seems to fit the WP:Reliable sources guideline? Cnilep (talk) 01:35, 19 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Plugged in two more serviceable sources. Nama.Asal (talk) 14:52, 19 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Merger with Usus[edit]

The article stub Usus contains some information that might be of interest here but provides it under a lemma that – to my knowledge (and I would call myself a sociolinguist) – is not used in English at all. (The references given are all Polish and Czech, plus one article written in English by a Latvian linguist claiming that the term usus had been used by a Danish and a German linguist and was not used in Latvian anymore.) Therefore I will transfer some of the content of Usus to Usage (language) and make Usus a redirect to Usage (language). --Daniel Bunčić (de wiki · talk · en contrib.) 05:45, 31 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
