:::Forget Wiktionary, we need [[Simple English]]. There are now good articles on [[time horizon]], [[contact network]], [[power network]], [[social network]], [[social capital]] here, which mention only the features of it we need to talk about to do work here. Full articles in Simple English will hopefully appear on all the concepts in the [[glossary]], right? These can just appear normally since we aren't using any word in any sense other than its normal sense. There's no distortion involved here, just certain articles we want to get corrected faster than others. | :::Forget Wiktionary, we need [[Simple English]].

A programming language rarely has more than 30-50 verbs and about a hundred reserved nouns. So this can't get too large. Not if it's to get into all those dictionaries. It must be a small virus. | A programming language rarely has more than 30-50 verbs and about a hundred reserved nouns. So this can't get too large. Not if it's to get into all those dictionaries.

:30-50 verbs?.. I can't think of even 20: (define, add/change/remove, repeat, fetch, link, compare, convert, read, write... whatelseisthere) but maybe I'm just not a qualified programmer. How many verbs does the [[w:Universal Turing machine]] have? [[User:Juxo|Juxo]] 15:12 Jun 19, 2003 (EEST) | :30-50 verbs?..
