Talk:Victoria (British Columbia federal electoral district)

message: As a standard in the historical ridings I've done so far, I've been putting names in the tables as they're listed on the ballot, or on the report of election from Elections BC or Elections Canada (presumably the same as the ballot).  So links are double-built with the linked-name (if any) as well as the form on the ballot; Amor de Cosmos is A. de Cosmos and Sir John A. gets the whole Right Hon. treatment (he was already Right Hon. at the time).Skookum1 08:43, 16 December 2005 (UTC)
thread_title:  Use of ballot-names in election tables 

message: The usual format in the Elections Canada tables is month-day-year, but it seems that for the details of the Byelections, i.e. in the event of Mr So and So's death, the month/day order is reversed to year-month-day.  This isn't entirely clear but for the time being all the byelection-reason announcements are in the later, all other dates are derived from the former.  Sometimes it's obvious, sometimes it's not.  I don't know why Elections Canada would use two different dating systems, but they do.  Could be because Hansard has the byelection announcements, e.g. 'By-Election:   On Mr. Tolmie's death, 13-10-1937' and the actual returns is from the Chief Electoral Officer, as in the date of the election caused by Mr. Tolmie's death 1937/11/29Skookum1 20:13, 16 December 2005 (UTC)

Well, maybe that's true for someone under 30, but she made history by becoming the first manager of a presidential campaign (Dukakis, 1988), and this is a far bigger feather in her cap than representing Ailes.

Is Aotcaroa == Aotearoa? I can't find anything about it by searching with Google, but the National Library page claims that Manuhuia Bennett was the Bishop of Aotcaroa.

thread_title: Babydoll

message: I think that Marabou should be cross-linked --- but to some article about the use of the term Marabou (fashion) in the fashion industries. Clearly the link to the type of stork would be a detraction from the usage here. 
Some links that might help to create a "Marabou (fashion)" page:
* http://www.fantasiawear.com/fashion-dictionary-4.htm
* http://www.desireher.com/help/glossary.htm
* http://www.desireher.com/help/glossary.htm
Clearly the term has two different fashion oriented meanings --- it's a type of thrown silk and a reference to the down from the tail of the bird.
I don't have the time to write such an article at the moment ... but perhaps this page will inspire someone to do so (and to link to it from the page about the stork, referring to one of the commercial uses of this particular animal). JimD 01:30, 20 March 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Marabou 

message: "Babydoll" is not necessarily a type of lingerie. It can be a type of silhouette for tops and dresses, along with the name of a style of dress popular in the 1970s. The bottom picture is not a babydoll in any sense. I'm not sure how to go about changing this article. Should there be different pages for each use, or should all of the different uses in fashion be on one page?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Akari Mizunashi (talk • contribs) 00:46, 11 November 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Other uses in fashion 

message: I disagree that the bottom picture is not a baby doll, at least in modern usage in the USA.  Perhaps not wherever Akari is posting from.  The picture does not have the classic bra top, but has the general shape, so I think most people would recognize it as such.  The question might be how the industry refers to it. Speaking to a friend in the UK, I do gather the definition is different there.  They certainly seem longer in the UK.  In the US, baby dolls tend to stop at waist to top of thigh, although can be a bit longer.  I think the length statement is wrong, at least for the US.  I can't find any other good references, but at least at Victoria Secret, they are shorter. Wiredrabbit (talk)  —Preceding undated comment added 14:34, 15 November 2009 (UTC)
