Talk:List of diamonds

message: Why isn't the category used instead of this list?  As new famous diamonds are discovered (like the Lesotho_Promise), the article can simply include a category tag to be added to the category.  On the other hand, it it requires someone to directly edit this article for the new diamond to appear in the list.  Is there a reason to have both a category and a list? --Dirkbike 23:04, 9 October 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Categories and lists are found to co-exist all over wikipedia. The list enables subjects that have not yet been written about - to be listed. Categories only detail those articles that exist in wikipedia ie a subset of the other. It took me a while to understand the rationale for both, but now I understand why.

thread_title: Merge with famous diamonds category?

message: I wonder if this belongs here? http://famousdiamonds.tripod.com/spoonmakersdiamond.html
:Its famous, so yeah, it belongs on the list. --24.21.149.124 (talk) 09:12, 22 December 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: The Spoonmaker's Diamond

message: According to pages for both The Centenary Diamond and The Millennium Star, the Centenary Diamond is the largest colorless (grade D), flawless diamond, however this list states that The Millennium Star is.  Surely this should be made consistent with the individual pages? 87.74.128.208 07:10, 29 August 2007 (UTC)

message: How can we possibly complete the article with red links, if you administrators start deleting articles of stub class, is it not better to at least classify them as stubs, rather than completely deleting it. It happened to me when i started writing on Agra diamond. I was only trying to fill a void. I don't think it looks great to see a lot of red links in any article.

message: I put this in a sortable table. Maybe some of the text could be altered to take out the redundancy ? I also thought a 'year of origin' would be a useful column. Wizzy…☎ 18:56, 13 September 2010 (UTC)

thread_title:  4th Feb diamond 

message: How about we get an inclusion criteria for this thing. This would possibly also necessitate splitting out the list into diamonds that were included for different reasons. Here's an initial proposal
* Diamonds notable for size
* Diamonds notable for quality
* Diamonds notable for ownership history
* Misc: synthetic...

thread_title:  Inclusion criteria 

message: I understand that this is more of just a collection than a list, but it would be nice to order it in some way? Perhaps alphabetically would be easiest, or year of first known record. 222Boarbot78 (talk) 21:20, 17 February 2023 (UTC)
