[edit]I assume that most people come to this page looking for links to word frequency lists, not for a huge discussion of such lists. There should be a front section giving links for the major languages, leaving the discussion of such lists (which most people don't actually come here looking for) to later sections.

- Hello there,
- First, wikipedia is an Encyclopedia, whom's mission is to explain things. So the article should focus on explaining more these studies and impacts.
- Secondly, yes, we still can provide pointers (links) to results, aka raw data or word list. There is now a few solid key studies : worldlex, unilex, which provide dozens of lists.
- So yes, every volunteers around is encouraged to improve this article in these 2 aspects, and in any given way deemed suitable (style, other scientific findings, etc). Yug (talk) 12:33, 7 January 2020 (UTC)
