Linguistics[edit]

Just on first reading, I think we should go either with linguistic style and linguistic variety, or just style and variety, for consistency's sake. -- Hephaestos 03:41 29 Jun 2003 (UTC)

You have a point there!
I was initially thinking of "Variety (linguistics)", then of "Variety of language", but didn't finish my thought. I wrote "linguistic style" since I was tired and couldn't think clearly... -- Ruhrjung 03:48 29 Jun 2003 (UTC)

I am sorry Ruhrjung, but upon consideration I have nothing to contribute on what variety should be called. Best be honest rather than invent some idiotic suggestion out of thin air. -- Cimon Avaro on a pogo-stick 23:06 30 Jun 2003 (UTC)

Mathematical Varieties[edit]

Discussion about listing various types of mathematical varieties.

I think when mathematicians talk of a variety they mean an Algebraic variety significantly more than Variety (universal algebra). On that note, there are many many types of algebraic varieties: Severi variety, Abelian variety, Albanese variety, Chow variety, Picard variety, Toric variety, Flag variety, Fano variety, Jacobian variety, Shimura variety, Bott-Samelson variety, Deligne-Lusztig variety, Spherical variety, Schubert variety, Calabi-Yao variety, Veronese variety, Secant variety, Cactus variety, Segre variety, Severi-Brauer variety, Complex-analytic variety, etc. Should this become a subcategory page, or just included here? -- Mahrud 07:45 21 Dec 2019 (UTC)
