Merge with Rememberer?

edit

Don't the two articles cover largely the same topic? Uanfala (talk) 08:52, 28 July 2016 (UTC)Reply

No. A rememberer does not actively speak the language. They are different speaker types. All of the articles on individual speaker types could be consolidated into an article on "speaker types".·maunus · snunɐɯ· 09:00, 28 July 2016 (UTC)Reply
@Maunus: And how is a passive speaker different from both? --Florian Blaschke (talk) 20:24, 29 August 2016 (UTC)Reply
Passive speakers understand the language but do not speak it. There is an article on speaker types in the cambridge handbook of endangered languages by Colette Grinevald. I think making the article Speaker types and merging them all there makes most sense.·maunus · snunɐɯ· 05:00, 30 August 2016 (UTC)Reply
I've created the article on speaker types.·maunus · snunɐɯ· 06:53, 30 August 2016 (UTC)Reply
I have boldly redirected "rememberer" and "semi-speaker" to "speaker types" and copied the relevant content.·maunus · snunɐɯ· 09:32, 30 August 2016 (UTC)Reply
That's a great idea! Thank you! --Florian Blaschke (talk) 01:29, 3 September 2016 (UTC)Reply
