Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/SMS language
There is no reason to have this Wiki when it is a smaller version of List of Internet slang phrases Tabor 17:24, 24 October 2007 (UTC)
- I'll disagree; the general subject of SMS/ Texting is not the same as a list of phrases that are used in SMS. That said, the SMS article--if retained--needs someone who knows more about it than I do to add more content. For example, what about SMS/ Texting in other languages; is there really any grammatical difference between standard English (French, Tagalog...) and Texted English (etc.); social effects (such as children using texting in the school essays, see refs at end of article now); is there dialectal variation in texting within speakers of a given language (e.g. between the US and Australia, or speakers of Indic English); what happens in languages with non-Roman scripts (do they text in Roman scripts or in their own script?); computational linguistic approaches to texting (like [1], etc. I suspect there's a lot more that is known about this topic, but it's not my area.
