message: Does anyone have any idea who invented the sprung wooden clothes peg? I know someone who claims that their ancestor invented it but I can't find any information about this.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Hogtied (talk • contribs) 11:45, 24 March 2006 (UTC)

The clip-in machine is a household utensil, then it seems to me that a picture of the object in real action seems to be necessary conditions for a simple visual presentation of results  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Coldom (talk • contribs) 11:12, 7 November 2016 (UTC)

message: ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 includes both JA and JM for Jamaica:  If I read that correctly, JM has been the Officially assigned code element for Jamaica since 1974.  JA is listed as an Indeterminate reservation, noting that, "Indeterminately reserved code elements are codes used to designate road vehicles under the 1949 and 1968 United Nations Conventions on Road Traffic but differing from those contained in ISO 3166-1. These code elements are expected eventually to be either eliminated or replaced ... .  In the meantime, the ISO 3166/MA has reserved such code elements for an indeterminate period. ... Moreover, these codes may be reassigned by the ISO 3166/MA at any time."  
Given this, might it not be appropriate to change "JA English" to "JM English"?  DavidMCEddy (talk) 12:42, 24 June 2017 (UTC)

message: History section needs some cleanup. A good half of it isn't so much about the history of clothespins themselves as it is about the misfortunes of some american company that made clothespins. If you're gonna ramble about that may as well ramble about the whole history of those swedish and chinese clothespin companies it mentions, too. 78.30.17.12 (talk) 19:54, 3 July 2019 (UTC)

message: Greetings. Thanks for participating in this project. I recently added the following (the heading was "BDSM"):
:"Clothespins may be used during acts that involve pinching such as in breast torture or zippers."
It was reverted  by ; I don't want to enter a battle of "reverted editions". I think the information is valid. What do you think? I'm restoring the paragraph in the meantime. Thanks Tortillovsky (talk) 04:25, 31 January 2024 (UTC)
