Talk:Crinoline

message: Is it simply a fabric.  Is it a dress made from a type of fabric?  Is it a dress made to fit over one of those contraptions?  Or is it the contraption itself?  98.221.141.21 (talk) 07:11, 4 December 2012 (UTC)

replies: text: You're the one who's unilaterally trying to impose her strange categorizations on Wikipedia, without even having the common decency to offer the remainder of us peons on Wikipedia one single shred of meaningful explanation.  The fact that you've been silent on your user talk page for three days now (while very actively editing on Wikipedia all the while), indicates that you have no meaningful explanation to offer -- and that being the case, I feel no hesitancy in reverting to the categories that were there before you started unilaterally imposing your individual agenda.  Frankly, your high-and-mighty accusations of "edit-warring" don't go very well together with your refusal to offer any meaningful explanation for your uncooperative unilateral actions (which others have called into question as well as my self).Churchh 13:08, 16 June 2006 (UTC)

message: Should there be a mention somewhere in this article about the garment's popularity with girls in the 1950s rock and roll scene? (And even today by people into that scene?) Or is that technically called something different?
:Yes, the Crinoline been rebirthed by the "New look" in 1948 and die in 1958, replaced by jeans and tights.Håbet 05:22, 25 June 2007 (UTC)

message: I'm not sure how to start but there needs to be a distinction between the old style fabric, the garment and the modern usage of the term to describe certain types of fabric.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Dogsgomoo (talk • contribs) 04:08, 12 April 2009 (UTC)

message: I find questionable the claim of crinolines worn by factory workers operating machinery. Since there's been no response to the citation needed template added in June 2007, I've posted a query on the original editor's User talk page. All editors are invited to help clear up this matter. -- Deborahjay (talk) 06:41, 9 September 2009 (UTC)

message: The 1846 patent given as the first hoop skirt is ... not a hoop skirt. It's just a corded petticoat; the only difference from the earlier ones is that it uses a specific type of sisal cord instead of cotton. There's no reason to single it out. --Principessa (talk) 12:44, 4 May 2014 (UTC)

message: * "In 1857, the Paris correspondent of The New York Times reported a non-fatal accident to two "elegantly dressed" young women whose clothes caught fire in the street.  It was believed that a lighted cigar had rolled under the dress of one as she sat at a cafe, but "the balloon-like form of her skirts and the confined air" delayed conflagration until she began to walk outside, when her skirts abruptly ignited.  Her friend, rushing to her aid, also caught fire.  Passers-by helped them, and neither was seriously hurt."
:: I checked with various keywords and cannot find this article in Newspapers.com's digitised version of the New York Times for 27 July 1857. I'll double check as it sounds credible but for now I'm removing it from the article. The paper/source are both probably misidentified. Mabalu (talk) 22:12, 6 June 2015 (UTC)
