Talk:ǀXam and ǂKhomani heartland

Article title

Per this comment,User:Blarcrean has suggested moving the article to /Xam Khomani Heartland. My first concern is that the introduction calls it the "/Xam and Khomani Heartland", which seems to indicate it should include the second. Second, while Bernard's work in 1992 (citation 1) calls /Xam the correct spelling, the UNESCO link uses !Xam and seems much more recent. I don't know about the Deacon citation, so we'll see. Third, if ǀXam_language is from the same group, convention would say to go with that, for consistency. -- Ricky81682 (talk) 03:31, 29 April 2009 (UTC)

/Xam (or |Xam) is the correct spelling, while !Xam is a common mistake, probably due to people making it being familiar with !Kung or !Xun for other possibly better-known groups in Namibia/Botswana/Angola. The / and ! represent different kinds of clicks in Khoe-San languages. The UNESCO link uses incorrect orthography. Blarcrean (talk) 21:45, 29 April 2009 (UTC)

Also it should be pointed out that the /Xam were historically of the Karoo and the Khomani of the Kgalagadi Tranfrontier Park area, perhaps at one time extending down to the Gariep or Orange River - and so, yes, I would go with /Xam and Khomani rather than /Xam Khomani - which is a bit like the difference between say "English and French" and "English French".

Ok, if it's the same group, would you agree to ǀXam and Khomani heartland for the title (no need to capitalize heartland)? -- Ricky81682 (talk) 21:52, 29 April 2009 (UTC)

Yes, that would be fine. Blarcrean (talk) 04:48, 30 April 2009 (UTC)

I think we're done now. Would you agree? -- Ricky81682 (talk) 06:48, 2 May 2009 (UTC)

I think so - I've made one or two links to the site from elsewhere so that it is not quite the orphan it was. Thanks for your help. Blarcrean (talk) 21:08, 2 May 2009 (UTC)
