Talk:List of bridges in the United States by state

message: Should bridges that have been removed be included in this list?  I have removed a few of them thinking that this list is for bridges that exist right now.  I took out Silver Bridge, and Collins Bridge. Cacophony 05:03, 1 January 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: That hadn't occurred to me before, but maybe they should stay in the list.  To use the Silver Bridge as an example, someone might not remember the name of the bridge, but, knowing there was an infamous bridge collapse in West Virginia, would come to this list and look under 'West Virginia.'  Maybe such bridge names could be appended with "(no longer in existence)" or some such phrase. —Muffuletta 08:32, 1 January 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Former bridges

message: The following bridges are listed under "OHIO" which is erroneous.  The Ohio river is part of Kentucky and not Ohio, therefore the bridges over the river belong to Kentucky and should be moved there on the list:
    * Brent Spence Bridge, Cincinnati
    * Carl Perkins Bridge, Portsmouth to Greenup County, Kentucky
    * Daniel Carter Beard Bridge, Cincinnati to Newport, Kentucky
    * John A. Roebling Suspension Bridge, Cincinnati to Covington, Kentucky
    * Newport Southbank Bridge (aka "Purple People Bridge"), Cincinnati to Newport, Kentucky
The river may be entirely in Kentucky, but the bridge approaches are also in Ohio. --NE2 17:25, 4 November 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: list of bridges in the united states correction

message: I added a Further lists section under Pennsylvania to denote the abundance of bridge lists. I suspect there are many similar situations regarding other states/cities.  Not sure if this is the best way to denote articles such as: List of crossings of the Susquehanna River or Pittsburgh bridges; however, I believe they should ultimately be listed on this page. Thoughts, concerns? Wrightchr 07:02, 10 January 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Further lists

message: In the lead, it says that this is a list of "notable" bridges. What that actually means is still a mystery to me. In my opinion, at least, existence is notability enough for inclusion. Should the page be renamed to "List of notable bridges in the United States"? As its name is now, it should include every bridge (or at least every named bridge).

replies: text: WP:LISTNAME may be helpful. Generally speaking, it's assumed that lists of this type cover WP:NOTABLE examples only, and therefore "notable" or similar adjectives are not required in the title. Station1 (talk) 19:11, 16 September 2020 (UTC)

While this is interesting, we can't use it unless you provide a source. Also, none of this is really trivia, as trivia by its definition is "unimportant information" - it therefore shouldn't be in a trivia section but instead the information should be incorporated into the main article. - Tbsdy lives (formerly Ta bu shi da yu) talk 02:36, 27 September 2008 (UTC)

Talk:Senenmut

message: Not to confuse any of the non-initiated in hieroglyphs, but a simple discussion of Djeser-djeserU" is needed.
The capital U means the plural (at word ending).
Djeser is the word for "holy" or "sacred".
I cannot say where all the later 'religious' names originated, but  'djeser-djeserU' , would be very equivalent to "Holy of holy's",  (Holy of Most holy)
"Sacred of the Most sacred," would be another good name.
I am not sure that 'Sublime of the Sublimes' gets the message across.

I keep reading that Mitchum "plays against type" but I don't think that's so, and Sinatra's at the pinnacle of his acting, this being only two years after his amazing comeback in From Here to Eternity.

File talk:Grand prismatic spring.jpg

message: I think some indications as to what is the scale of his picture could help: looked at quickly, it might as well be a giant lake as a penny-sized blob (particularily in the size it is shown in articles). 
A vague indication as to what kind of road is on the bottom left would be enough: pedestrian? one lane and one-way? two-way?
A close look at the biggest size of the picture leads me to think those are people walking, making the spring a few hundreds meters long, but many might first think these are cars (as I did and still doubt) and evaluate the spring as three to five times larger.
Since I'm not sure myself, I won't make any change. If someone knows it might help to change this.

Because roots lyrics talk about poverty of people living in ghettos while businessmen thrive.
