Concepts, not labels

[edit]

This article appears to be organized around the label "verbal case", including or at least mentioning several distinct concepts (grammatical case, tense-aspect-mood systems, inflection). As described at Wikipedia:Wikipedia is not a dictionary, an article should treat a single concept, not a group of concepts referred to by the same label. If it is necessary to disambiguate the various concepts referred to with this label, a disambiguation page could be written, probably called Verbal case (disambiguation). On the other hand, this article does not appear to have developed much beyond its original stub; the main improvements appear to be the addition of examples. It may be that there is a single concept here, but it is not well explained at the moment. I'll admit, I've never heard the label "verbal case" used for TAM or other inflections.

I agree. Would we want to create the disambiguation page with red links? — Ƶ§œš¹ [lɛts b̥iː pʰəˈlaɪˀt] 23:38, 11 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
