Please can editors of this page check and if necessary fix their bluelinks? This page currently links to 41 DAB pages - which isn't the record in that particular Hall of Shame, but it's well up the leaderboard. Thanks, Narky Blert (talk) 20:33, 19 July 2017 (UTC)

Just created it yesterday, will try to get around to that sometime in the near future. NikolaiHo☎️ 00:54, 20 July 2017 (UTC)

Wiktionary

I was originally thinking "gee, this belongs in Wiktionary", but I healed from that delusion. I've done some wiktionary-related additions to some of the entrys at User:Ceyockey/sandbox_ology_words-tuneup, namely a) renaming the first column, b) adding a wiktionary link column, and c) linking to wiktionary for synonyms. All links to wiktionary appear as blue when rendered in wikipedia, so I had to resort to strikethrough for terms for which a wiktionary term has not yet been created. Do you think this would be a useful extension to this list? --User:Ceyockey (talk to me) 03:07, 15 July 2020 (UTC)

I don't see a reason for having a Wiktionary column, and perhaps those links that don't link to a Wikipedia article could link to a Wiktionary article? Because some studies are very notable and should definitely link to their corresponding Wikipedia entry IMO. Also I'm glad you believe this article belongs to Wikipedia, it means a lot to me!

ologyendingology ?

How do you name the the intellectual disciplin of studying the words that are ending with -ology ? I didn't find it in the list. Thanks -- @Éric38fr (come chat & let's share a drink), Grenoble (France), 03:50, 23 June 2022 (UTC)

@Eric.LEWIN I don't believe such a study exists. Nikolaih☎️📖 21:24, 23 June 2022 (UTC)
Do you mean that making, or even reading, the list in the adjoined article, can NOT be considered as studying ? There are worse things that certainly do have this pretension, I think. Just read the list, even if you need not to study it deeply :-))). -- @Éric38fr (come chat & let's share a drink), Grenoble (France), 11:54, 24 June 2022 (UTC)

Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

The result of the move request was: Moved to List of words with the suffix -ology. Consensus established at alternative title, List of words with the suffix -ology. (closed by non-admin page mover) – robertsky (talk) 16:52, 8 August 2022 (UTC)

List of words ending in ology → List of words ending in -ology – Per my reasoning given at Talk:List of "-gate" scandals and controversies#Requested move 1 August 2022, where I have discussed this page move. QueenofBithynia (talk) 10:23, 1 August 2022 (UTC)

Oppose— I think the dash would be necessary if the title were to be "List of -ology words" or something of the sort, but since the phrasing of the current title explicitly states that these words end in "ology", the dash is not needed. Also not the italicization of ology in the title. Nikolaih☎️📖 14:44, 1 August 2022 (UTC)
