message: There seems to be a standardised set of sizes called SSx - SS5 seems to be 1.8mm diameter for example. Think ss stands for stone size. Secretlondon 21:00, 6 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes, SS does stand for stone size. Also noted here is that the original sizing method was PP (pearl plate). The SS size uses a different scale. PP is more commonly used for jewelry, while SS is used for apparel. See here.  Laydtc (talk) 13:02, 1 December 2011 (UTC)

message: In 2020 the Michigan state senate held hearings into alleged voter fraud where the public could contribute. One widely mocked complainant alleged that many Joe Biden voters (and/or the vote counters) wore rhinestones in their clothing, and that therefore their votes should be disqualified or the counting process invalidated (she didn't explain why doing such a thing should be a disqualifying factor). Adding to the resulting mockery was the fact that she emphasised that point at the end of her speech ("Don't forget the rhinestones") - https://twitter.com/TepidButterASMR/status/1333953239956533248  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.99.210.174 (talk) 17:21, 9 December 2020 (UTC)

replies: text: Fresgoe harbour was built in the early 1830's. It was built by a Major William Innes, so perhaps there's been some confusion due to his surname. It was built primarily to encourage fishing, and was also used on the north coast trading route.  I am not aware of there ever being an inn there - the closest inn I am aware of ever existing nearby was in Reay itself.  I know the current occupier of Fresgoe House, so may ask him what he knows of the history of the building. Lianachan 22:04, 31 May 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: Disambiguation needed

message: Hello, I am a student with Miami University and am enrolled in a Hebrew bible class. 
Biblical laws are set forth and considered "oath's."   These oaths have a standing in scripture similar to what laws hold to modern society. He mentions that oaths are known in many other cultures and even other languages meaning most understand the complexity of this concept. The history of the covenant and oath go back a long time to before Babylonia and Assyria. The international covenants can be linked with the Hittite empire and some religious material using three specific facts. The first is that the Hittite empire did not discover the covenant but merely got it from mesoptamian sources. The second was the people of Syria were made by the covenants and that there was a similar form used for the treaty with Egypt.  The last was that other ideas linking between the Hittite empire and religious material have already been discovered.Adrugby (talk) 18:04, 11 March 2015 (UTC)

Talk:Lists of Indian film industries

message: Respected Sir/ Madam/ Editor,
As i am new to wikipedia and am not aware of the formalities but still one suggestion.
Please include one more subtopic in your indian films that is
"Other regional films"
This will/ may include the regional films of Punjab, Maharashtra and other not so well known states like harayana, rajasthan and uttaranchal. I know that harayana, rajasthan and uttranchal are the states which are not so active at making films but i am aware of that in past movies were produced in these states of whome  i have seen atleast a few.
As far as Punjab and Maharashtra is concerned in these states they have lot many films to their credit. As i have personally stayed in punjab and am aware of that in punjab a lot many films had been produced and in maharashtra even now a lot of marathi films are released every year and many of them are commercially sucessful. Though the scale of production in these above mentioned states may not be at a scale comparable to southindian states but definitetly movies are produced and viewed in these states on regional basis and also i feel the other states must be making movies which atleast diserve a separate topic that is "Other regional movies/ films of india"
hoping that this request of mine will be constructive to your approach of improving your article,
