About the Features 25A-25B

[ultumi]

There are two variation of the language Kui on the database: One of them is Indonesian variation, and the other is Indian variation. The Indonesian variation has the value "Head-marking" for 25A: Locus of Marking: Whole-language Typology and it is unvalued for 25B: Zero Marking of A and P Arguments, although all languages which has has the value "Head-marking" for 25A was tagged as "Non-zero marking" for 25B. But there is an interesting detail: Kui's other variation (Indian variation) has the value "Non-zero marking" for 25B, but it is unvalued for 25A. Could it be a mess?

Similarly, the language Ngaanyatjarra has the value "Dependent-marking" for 25A, but it's unvalued for 25B, although all languages which has has the value "Dependent-marking" for 25A was tagged as "Non-zero marking" for 25B.

Thanks for pointing out these issues. Please note, though, that WALS is mostly considered a finished project now (other than a couple of chapters by Matthew Dryer, which might get updated occasionally). So while creating issues pointing out inconsistencies could be useful for potential users of the data, don't expect the published WALS Online to be corrected - unless the authors of the relevant chapters agree and ask for such changes.

Thank you for your reply @xrotwang! My MA thesis is on WALS and I'd like to share the findings of my analysis to contribute WALS users only. :)
