message: dont all albums in america come out on tuesday?--NJ Rock 01:23, 18 December 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I believe movie release days are regional. In California, they come out on Friday, but in Michigan where I grew up, they always came out on Wednesday. I think the film industry does this to make it easier to ship the thousands of prints they need to make whenever they release a big film. --MiguelMunoz (talk) 21:18, 14 April 2008 (UTC)

text: That would be because Pluto is no longer a planet.  I changed it to "dwarf planet" from "ex-planet". --  timc  talk   13:47, 23 March 2008 (UTC)

message: It's fascinating that the word for Tuesday in Irish so closely resembles that in Romance language, but Irish isn't a romance language! If anybody knows of similar languages (Welsh? Gaelic?) that have similar words for Tuesday, could they put them into their own paragraph? If not, we need to clarify this point. --MiguelMunoz (talk) 21:18, 14 April 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Good catch! Our days of the week article says both Welsh and Irish use preserved Latin names, though there wasn't a source. So I went looking. Have both clarified the statement here and sourced it both here and there. And learned something new :) WikiJedits (talk) 20:51, 16 April 2008 (UTC)

message: I sincerely hope I haven't treaded on anyone's toes by restructuring these pages, but there really wasn't any consistency among them, and some pages looked awful messy. Of course feel free to revert or edit what I've changed. Unfortunately I never haver had time to do Friday to Sunday. Annatto (talk) 19:15, 26 April 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I don't mind consistency, but did you use an older version? The references I put in for Mars Thingsus and the Celtic languages have disappeared. Hope you don't mind them being put back. WikiJedits (talk) 13:09, 29 April 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Revamped Monday thru Thursday

message: I found it interesting that such disparate cultures as Roman, Thai and Indian/Nelapese/etc. all named the day after Mars.  Is this just coincidence? Kakashi64 (talk) 21:30, 27 January 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: Mars Connection?

message: I changed the introductory paragraph from this: "Tuesday is a day of the week in the Gregorian calendar. According to the international standard ISO 8601, it is the second day of the week, occurring between Monday and Wednesday." to this: "Tuesday is the day of the week between Monday and Wednesday."  This change is inspired by the corresponding text in the Monday article.  Here are my comments on the changes:
* The Gregorian calendar is irrelevant. The existence of Tuesday as a defined day of the seven-day week precedes the invention of the Gregorian calendar by 2,000 years or more.
* ISO 8601 is too obscure to bring up in the introductory paragraph.
* The question of which day of the week Tuesday is (the second day versus the third day) is complex. ISO 8601 is one factor but there are also other factors that may be considered. Instead of going into detail in the introductory paragraph about the issue of which day is considered the first day of the week, it is better to link to the Week-day names article which discusses the issue thoroughly. I do so via the link in the words "day of the week".
I propose to wait and see how this change shakes out, before applying it to the articles for other days of the week. Wideangle (talk) 00:17, 27 June 2009 (UTC)

message: Is it? No source is cited. And this page states that Pluto (not Uranus) is associated with Tuesday Planets_in_astrology.
