To Do's for this article

This Pidgin article is developing nicely. Some further references would bring the level closer to what is needed for full approval. Leaning so heavily on just a few sources limits the article's authority. McWhorter's The Power of Babel, while generally a relatively accessible discussion of the nature of language, doesn't have the authority of his journal articles and other academic publications. It is probably best recommended in a list of suggested further sources for lay readers. A few more academic publications (e.g., those of John Holm or Gillian Sankoff) probably merit some reference here.
