Walloon or Wallonian?

Which is the correct adjective, both seem to be in use.... Thanks!Evilbu 19:20, 2 October 2006 (UTC)


 * I honestly don't know which is the correct adjective, but the article on the Walloons says that "when referring to inhabitants of Wallonia with the meaning of citizen of Wallonia, the word Wallonian is more commonly used." Still, that does not say which adjective is preferable in the sense I used it. After all, by that definition a Dutch-speaking resident of the Walloon Region would also be a "Wallonian". I personally think both are acceptable, though perhaps "Walloon" refers more to the actual people and "Wallonian" to the inhabitants of the Walloon Region. In which case "Walloon" would be preferable here. I'll change "Wallonian" to "Walloon" just to make sure, but I hope someone else can clarify which adjective is correct. --Ganchelkas 15:52, 4 October 2006 (UTC)

Controversy

Wathelet didn´t help in the case of Andras Pandy either, I wonder if he really was that incompetent or else.
