Talk:Fortuna

message: I removed this from the lead paragraph:
:It was considered the ultimate good luck if one was to discover and set aflame a four leaf clover in her honor. It was said she used the smoke from this "lucky flame" to fabricate her own unique ambrosia. Different poems tell of the effects including both immortality and life long good fortune. In contrast, it was said the ultimate bad luck was the consumption of the clover by the discoverer. It was said that was utter disregard for the godess's divinity.
First it seems like trivia and not appropriate for the Wikipedia:Lead section. But more so, how significant is it, how widespread was this 4-leaf clover myth, was it regional in time and place, or was it widespread? Some more context and a source needed. -- Stbalbach 14:52, 24 August 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Burning Bridges (Naked Eyes album)

message: A while ago, I proposed a merge from Promises, Promises (Naked Eyes song) into this article because: a) despite the song's popularity, the article is too short on its own, making this song too trivial; and b) despite its notability, hardly anyone (especially in the younger generation) would recognize the song.

Talk:Mafia Island

message: ----
Mafia is the big island.  Chole is the very small island across Chole Bay to the east. Malangali 14:55, 24 August 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: The etymologies are dissimilar, relating to different abstract concepts, so my guess would be no. Although they do share a M-F-A pattern via a triconsonantal root, that doesn't mean they are of the same origin or meaning. In this case, Mafia Island most likely takes its name from a word meaning "group (of islands)" or "archipelago", whereas the Cosa Nostra attained the epithet "mafia" from a word meaning "ambition", "boldness", or "arrogance". The words developed along different timelines, with the island's 'Mafia' likely cropping up around the 8th or 9th century during its settlement and inevitable period of pidgin and creole, whereas the word of notoriety, 'mafia', was likely first written in the 17th century in connection with witchcraft, a word written after the names of women accused of bold behavior during the  decline of the witch trials.
