Linea 55:
:Using the pagename you suggest would require a change in our general policy, which should be discussed as such, [[Vicipaedia:Taberna|here]] for example.
:You might enjoy [[Aulus Gellius]], ''[[Noctes Atticae]]'' [https://archive.org/details/in.ernet.dli.2015.184632/page/n371/mode/2up book 11 chapter 16]. It's relevant, I think. It's amusing, whether relevant or not! [[Usor:Andrew Dalby|Andrew Dalby]] ([[Disputatio Usoris:Andrew Dalby|disputatio]]) 12:51, 20 Maii 2020 (UTC)
:: Thank you, Andrew, I think I will enjoy reading Gellius. As for the change in the policy, I believe that this is one of the cases were it would not be necessary. “Wormhole” is a made-up word even in English, and especially in names where some kind of irony is involved you want to preserve them as close as possible to the original form (think for example that in Italian we normally call it directly “wormhole”, using the English word, since Italian is way more adverse than English or Latin in creating compound words – the ones we have normally come directly from Latin – and any longer translation would miss the metaphor). In the incipit we could even mention the English word as a Latin indeclinable word together with ''vermiforamen'': “'''Vermiforamen''', vel '''wormhole''' (indecl.), vel '''pons Einsteino–Rosenianus''' ([[Anglice]] ''wormhole'')”. But the pagename in my opinion should be ''Vermiforamen''. --[[Usor:Grufo|Grufo]] ([[Disputatio Usoris:Grufo|disputatio]]) 13:20, 20 Maii 2020 (UTC)
