Talk:St. Gallen

message: Sentences like this one have no place in Wikipedia:
"Old Town: The historic center looks as if it had been bombed in WWII, which was not the case. Still, some historic buildings remain, most of them being abused by commercial purpose. "
Also, I would like the author to explain the relevance of
"Bank Wegelin, the oldest bank in Switzerland, founded 1741 mainly on slavery-based profit. "
or remove it.

replies: text: Thank you for pointing this out. It was added over two months ago by 81.62.170.119. I removed the whole Old Town part, since the Old Town is not a building. And I removed the slavery part from the Wegelin section. ---Sluzzelin 21:18, 21 February 2007 (UTC)

message: The article now states: 
: The blazon of the municipal coat of arms is Argent a Bear rampant Sable langued and in his virility Gules and armed and gorged Or.
: Is this really correct (old) english? I doubt it. The original german text reads:
:In Silber steigender schwarzer Bär mit roter Zunge und Zeichen goldenem Halsband, Klauen und Augenbrauen, sowie Gold in den Ohren.Die Gemeindewappen des Kantons St. Gallen, Neujahrsblatt von 1947, S.21, Abb. Nr. 67
This (literally) translates to: 
: In argent an ascending black bear with a red tongue and sign [meaning the gender sign], golden neckline, claws and eyebrows, as well as gold in his ears. 
Does the current text in the article realy mean the same? --PaterMcFly talk contribs 18:34, 5 August 2011 (UTC)

message: I made a few changes replacing Abbey of St. Gall by Cathedral of St. Gall and Abbey church St. Gall. ZH8000 reverted my changes arguing that Abbey was the correct translation of the German Abtei. Yet, this building is not generally called Abtei in German, it is called Stiftskirche (abbey church):

message: Q. Where is the outdoor show jumping arena in St. Gallen?
no mention of it in the Sport section. also the Sport section is very basic, needs improved.
The 1987 European Show Jumping Championships were held in St. Gallen. Individual gold medalist horse & rider were one of the greats, " Jappeloup (SF) " ridden by Pierre Durand. The pair went on to win Gold the next year at the 1988 Olympics in Seoul.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.136.154.100 (talk) 02:28, 17 April 2017 (UTC)
