Please move the first part of this article to Cape (geography) and leave Cape for the second part. For a dis-ambiguation page, please create Cape (disambiguation). Any objections?? 66.32.110.184 23:39, 20 May 2004 (UTC)
replies: text: Consider it done. I moved the content on the Landform to Headlands and bays where it belongs and created Cape (disambiguation). Right now, I'm solving the redirects to the landform.--Paul 09:41, 5 Jan 2005 (UTC)

message: I wonder if there is more to add to the practical purpose of a cape?  Seems silly to me otherwise - a raincoat would provide better protection from the elements, or just a big blanket... --2600:6C48:7006:200:5C10:C716:750B:C3B2 (talk) 00:23, 1 November 2023 (UTC)

message: Kapes is a proper name; I did a search on Google and found no reference to evening kapes, but lots of references to evening capes. --Allyn 16:06Italic text, 17 March 2007 (UTC)
Cape can also be a geological term.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.235.165.71 (talk) 23:35, 11 September 2007 (UTC)

message: I am removing this image of User:Allyn modelling a garment he designed and sells on his personal website (linked to on his userpage) in violation of Wikipedia:Conflict_of_interest#Self-promotion. Also, although being an unusual design, the garment in the photo is not enough to justify inclusion in an encyclopedia - otherwise everyone that makes their own clothes could justify adding their work to articles. See Wikipedia:Notability. Besides... Cape, Trenchcoat, Raincoat, Costume, Poncho... which one is it? Allyn has uploaded photos of himself to all these articles. 
I suggest adding the photo to commons. RP Bravo 14:29, 9 May 2007 (UTC)

message: I thought the shorter form of cape (like the one in the picture), is called a capelet. I added this several weeks ago, but someone deleted it. cecikierk  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.162.20.186 (talk) 22:57, 18 December 2007 (UTC)

message: Surely superheroes are the most prominent cape-wearers in today's culture? It seems very odd to me that they're restricted to a single line right at the end.
I agree with a previous commenter who suggested that a superhero would probably make a better image for this. The one we've got now strikes me as more of a shawl.
Also, I don't know if dictionaries are going to back me up on this, but to my mind the biggest factor distinguishing capes and cloaks is the presence of a hood. Is that just me? --Oolong (talk) 00:19, 17 April 2008 (UTC)

message: This seems short. Is there nothing more to be said on capes? Could someone go into greater detail on variations or something?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.128.223.247 (talk) 22:47, 9 October 2011 (UTC)

message: I've known similar garments worn around the waist to be referred to as capes, or colloquially as 'butt-capes' are these not in fact a kind of cape?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 176.254.92.91 (talk) 20:44, 3 June 2013 (UTC)
