File:Southern dialect map.png

[edit]

This map is inaccurate. Article claims that dictionary mentions Atlanta doesn’t have the accent as well as the rest of northern Florida. The source itself is not presented, there’s no excerpt of the book in the source. As such this definitely needs to be either revised or deleted. 2600:100C:A218:9A7B:9EB:869E:8E7D:B19 23:13, 6 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

 Keep. Deletion isn't an appropriate solution for a content dispute, especially over a topic like this which is inherently subjective. Also, COM:INUSE. Omphalographer (talk) 23:29, 6 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: I actually do believe my map should be updated, though the anon's arguments for two specific regional changes as shown in the Atlas of North American English, which is what this map is mirroring, are questionable. The best map in that study to look at is Map 11.6 (page 131). I will begin to make some edits and upload a clearer version. Wolfdog (talk) 14:38, 7 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I have uploaded a better image now, with more precise cities emphasized. Wolfdog (talk) 02:15, 8 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
