Talk:Province of Córdoba (Spain)

message: If "Cordove" is the traditional name of Córdoba in English, Why don't you change the article to Cordove? Is the same thing as Seville or Andalusia. I´m a native Spanish speaker and we call your London "Londres", your New York and all your "News" (New Jersey, New Mexico, New Hampshire, New Orleans, etc) are Nueva York, Nueva Jersey, Nuevo Hampshire, Nuevo México, Nueva Orleans, etc. Sydney is Sídney and Dublin is Dublín. Just look to Louisiana, wich is Luisiana in Spanish. So what do you care about the name of places in the original language? Each language should have their own way to say geographic places. I think it's the same discussion as Zaragoza and Saragossa.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.3.79.89 (talk) 21:15, 9 October 2008 (UTC)

*Support - there's no particular precedence now for the Spanish province over the Argentine, and the Argentine province is a higher order subdivision, and larger. Twice as many WP articles link to the Argentine Córdoba as to the Spanish.Martín (saying/doing) 13:26, 11 April 2009 (UTC)

Talk:Denel Overberg Test Range

message: You are correct, it is officialy named "Overberg Toetsbaan". Toetsbaan is the Afrikaans word for "test range". Overberg is the name of the region where it is located. I didn't know how to change the name of the article. --Oom_Kosie
:Thanks for the response, Oom. I've now renamed it accordingly. (Confusingly, the link for the rename function is named "Move".)--A bit iffy 08:55, 22 April 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Overberg Toetsbaan

message: From User:Oom Kosie's last edit, I'm thinking whether a more correct name for the article would be "Overburg Toetsbaan". This seems to be born out by cursory Googling - it looks like that's the official name. If no one disagrees, I'll go ahead and rename it.--A bit iffy 08:26, 14 April 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Overburg Toetsbaan

message: What's the best translation of "toetsbaan"? Is it "test range"?--A bit iffy 08:26, 14 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: This name should not have been changed, "toetsbaan" is simply Afrikaans for "test range" and it most certainly would have had two official names prior to 1994 (when SA had two official languages: English and Afrikaans). Wikipedia naming conventions call for the English version to be used. --Deon Steyn 07:01, 23 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text:  Done. I have renamed the page, restoring the correct version (English, not Afrikaans) according to Wikipedia:Naming conventions (use English). --Deon Steyn 07:13, 23 April 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Kinn (former municipality)

message: I think no:Kinn and no:Kinn i Sogn og Fjordane should probably be combined to just no:Kinn (øy), so that we have one link to a Norwegian Bokmål page referring to the same thing as the English page, rather than two separate links to Norwegian Bokmål pages, the first to a disambiguation page, the second to a page referring to a former municipality on the island of Kinn.

Talk:Alpine, New Jersey

message: This page is badly in need of editing.  I don't know what the correct figures are, but I promise you that the per-capita income for males isn't $900,000+.  Additionally, with 8% of the youth below the poverty line (presumably), it seems awful unlikely that 0% of the population is below the poverty line.  Lastly, the punctuation sucks -- but I won't even fix that, as the whole page needs work.

Talk:Texas State Highway 165

message: Here's a 1936-1940 map that shows it. It puts it on 7th Street from the present location of IH 35 (which was upgraded from a surface boulevard) east to Comal Street, and possibly north on Comal Street to 9th Street. That matches the post-1939 description.
This 1919 map has no highway numbers (they had just been designated in 1917), but shows 6th Street as the main paved road out of town to the east (turning south at Calles Street to 5th Street). 6th Street may have been US 290 originally; it had moved to Cesar Chavez Street on the 1940 map.
Loop 343 was designated in 1961, and is shown on this 1958-1961 map. It used 7th Street, Neches Street and 5th Street (later a one-way pair), and was removed from 7th Street in 1987. This 1998 map clearly shows the current situation. (This 1954 map shows the old configuration before Loop 343.) --SPUI (T - C - RFC - Curpsbot problems) 19:01, 30 April 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Decatur High School (Federal Way, Washington)

message: The official school colors are navy and yellow. Orange, meanwhile, serves as the school's distinct "spirit color." During Spirit Week, students are encouraged to wear orange.
The "spirit color" idea came about as an accident, when ASB students received a large order of camouflage sweatpants that were mistakenly printed in a bright orange pattern, in lieu of an intended blue/yellow pattern. Instead of discard the order, the sweatpants were sold/distributed as "school spirit pants" and the student group declared that orange was the "spirit color." This notion has stuck with the school for over 10 years as of 2015, with the orange camouflage pants continuing to be sold and worn among students. The upside is that Decatur students are very noticeable as such, even in the community outside school, during spirit week. - 199.27.168.41 (talk) 23:42, 2 October 2015 (UTC)

message: I just looked quickly (twice) at the movie "Shark Attack". The description in the article says this: '...scantily clad woman with a boombox on her shoulders'. That is not accurate. Actually, it is a camera on the girl's right shoulder. Her left leg is hanging over the side of the boat. She waves at some people (Casper van Dien's character among them). Immediately after this (at 42:25 on the counter) the shark grabs her leg and mauls it, nearly killing her. The shark was attracted by her moving foot.
