Regarding Ferdinand de Saussure's terms 'langue' and 'parole', they aren't all that complex. I seriously doubt whether there is any other material to add to the lingustic stub. I suggest that it be removed, the description on Saussure's page should suffice.

As regards the other definition of Parole. As Wiki isn't a dictionary, could we also remove this entry, and thus the whole page? Dduck 19:48, 13 Nov 2003 (UTC)

Hopefully it's a bit more than just a dictionary entry now. There's certainly room for more article content - parole boards, nature of supervision, most definitely information on parole in countries besides the US. 66.167.132.156 06:52, 6 Dec 2003 (UTC)
