Can we change the image for the Christianity series? The current one is a man-made depiction of Christ, which does not represent all Christians or all periods of Christian history. For many Reformed Christians, such images are even a violation of the second commandment. I propose the image should be a simple cross.--86.168.64.140 (talk) 12:05, 16 April 2014 (UTC)

thread_title: Image

message: This article is about the battle of Guam in 1944. There was also a capture of Guam in 1941 by Japan. As far as I can tell, there is no article about that "Battle of Guam". (The names it might be given, ior that redirect to it, are Battle of Guam (1941) Japanese capture of Guam, Japanese invasion of Guam, Invasion of Guam (1941), Fall of Guam (1941), Japanese occupation of Guam, Capture of Guam (1941), Capture of Guam by Japan, Invasion of Guam by Japan, and others. The article Capture of Guam is about the American capture during the Spanish American War) I don't see any particular reason why an article on Japan's capture cannot exist. If there is an article about it, whether it is created in the future or already exists under some name I haven't thought of, this article would need a dablink at the top. If the article about the Japanese capture of Guam is given the name Battle of Guam (1941), it might be necessary to rename this article to Battle of Guam (1944).
One possible objection to renaming this would be if this Battle of Guam is considered "more significant" than the 1941 event. Miss Madeline | Talk to Madeline 23:14, 20 May 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  Streamline order of battle 

message: The text reads "A total of 274 ships, which fired 44,978 shots from 2-inch and 5-inch guns..." One would think that 2-inch (51 mm) guns would be rather ineffective for shore bombardment, and I'm not aware of the US Navy actually having weapons of that caliber. Considering that there were both battleships and cruisers taking part, guns of 12" and 8" and/or 6" caliber would presumably have been used in addition to the destroyers' 5" weapons.--Death Bredon (talk) 22:21, 18 March 2021 (UTC)

Talk:O-Bahn

message: I do not know of another place in the world where a guided busway is labelled as an 'O-Bahn'. I believe that the 'O-Bahn' is a locally put-together term which is used to name the North-East Busway.
As a consequence, I believe that the page 'Adelaide O-Bahn' be moved back to 'O-Bahn'.
:Let me quote this page from "Tramways & Urban Transit": 
:For many years, the Darmstadt tramway network was kept more-or-less intact, but a strong vision was lacking. Buses replaced trams on routes 5 and 6 in 1960 and 1970 respectively, to eliminate stub termini and provide service further into the suburbs. This zigzagging meant that 10 years of development potential was practically lost. For a while, it seemed as if Darmstadt would build O-Bahn lines, following the experiments at Essen. O-Bahn is a bus with lateral wheels that run within a concrete guideway. At Essen, the O-Bahn experiment, which ended in commercial failure, meant that several tram lines were sacrificed to make room for the newcomer. Fortunately, Darmstadt dropped this plan before it could materialise.
:Clearly this is a common term, referring not only to Adelaide, but to many guided busways around the world. - Aaron Hill 11:40, Nov 8, 2004 (UTC)

I am going to merge this page with Guided bus, as I think that is probably more common, and is more obvious, and then turn this into a redirect page.--John 16:35, 6 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Talk:George Taubman Goldie

message: George Taubman Goldie was born on the Isle of Man(1846-1925)in British. He received his formal education at the Royal Military Academy in Woolwich, England. He was also a former officer of the British Army. 
    In 1867 Goldie travelled to Egypt, where he spent three years in Sudan, reading and learning about the Saharan and sudanic region of north and west Africa. It was while still in Sudan that he learnt about Nigeria from the Hausa pilgrims passing through the Sudan to or from Saudi Arabia. This later helped out in his career as British colonial administrator in the Nigeria river area. After leaving Africa in 1870 he married and returned to the Isle of Man 105.112.154.141 (talk) 04:18, 9 February 2023 (UTC)

Talk:Girdle

message: in line 4 it should be distinguished between open bottom girdles (brief or hi waist) and pantie girdles (brief, hi waist or long legged). Hi waist girdles are very often zipped.
----
Rem text:
Arguably the most famous girdle, made by Playtex, was known as the "24-hour girdle", as it could be worn comfortably for long periods.
I think this is speculative at best and POV probably, and I think it refers to the 18 hour girdle, not 24! 
Agree with the anon comments above, there's lots of room for expansion (no pun intended) here. A list of manufacturers might be a good start; Types of girdle and historical styles and fashions are another obvious direction, zips, panels, step-ins, pantie girdles, control briefs, the connection to stockings vs panti-hose, suspenders, "belts", girdle cover gussies vs briefs underneath, modern fettishists - all sorts of possibilities.

message: The last paragraph in the History section is a bit unclear and I don't quite follow it. It first states girdles were made of metal and then states they were made of white leather. Which one of that is true? I suppose they were metal as they were used to support a sword and protect the waist.
In addition, the paragraph states that girdles were richly embroidered and made of white leather, but then mentions that monks wore them. Is it true that monks wore such precious items? --TadejM my talk 16:58, 28 October 2023 (UTC)

Talk:Virgule

message: I have seen the following in the The Free Online Dictionary of Computing edited by Denis Howe
===Virgule===
Rare, and ambiguous: slash or comma. 
"Virgule" (or rather, Latin "virgula", meaning "little rod" or, vividly enough, "little penis") was the name of a punctuation character shaped like a small slash and used in the Latin writing system much like a modern comma -- hence the ambiguity of this term in modern English. 
Compare French "virgule" and Italian "virgola", meaning "comma" (not "slash"); Italian "doppia virgola" and "virgoletta", both meaning "double quote".
This would indicate that a straight re-direct to slash is an over simplification.
