Report and Recommendations of the Scots Spelling Committee[edit]

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

No evidence of notability. The creator of this report, the Scots Spelling Committee, doesn't have its own article. eh bien mon prince (talk) 10:32, 15 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Delete It's a stub with no indication of importance, and not notable. If there was material on spelling reform proposed by a major body, it could go in Scots language. I can't find evidence online that the committee is notable, or that its report is notable: nothing on scotsman.com, and Google mainly throws up mirrors of this article. --Colapeninsula (talk) 11:44, 15 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Modern Scots quotes John Corbett: "devising a normative orthography for Scots has been one of the greatest linguistic hobbies of the past century" and this could well be just another exercise in that vein. --Colapeninsula (talk) 11:48, 15 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
