Talk:Buffalo

message: American Buffalo are not buffalo.  They're Bison.  Their name is a misnoma, and as such shouldn't be included in this list.
*Do you mean "misnomer"? It is true that they are in fact bison, however, since they are commonly called buffalo, this disambiguation page would at least direct a reader to the correct article. Wolfdog 07:33, 24 February 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Bison 

message: My Webster's dictionary defines a buffalofish as military slang for a heavily armored amphibious vehicle. Could someone add a page bout this to link to?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.65.85.101 (talk) 20:40, 22 December 2009 (UTC)

message: The phrase "Buffalo, New York - the best known Buffalo in the USA" do contain weasel words. I opt that it should be removed, or perhaps changed to "a well known Buffalo". Please note that the phrase has been removed by two different users. 
The article about weasel words has an example showing that this is in fact weasel words.

replies: text: Google for the word Buffalo. Every hit on the front page is for the city of Buffalo, NY. Therefore, it is the most well known Buffalo. That is not an opinion, it is a fact. Please show an example of another Buffalo that can be considered equally well known before changing the phrase again. QVanillaQ 21:39, 5 October 2005 (UTC)

message: Buffalos or Buffaloes? I see both in common use. Drutt (talk) 17:57, 23 November 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: One buffalo, two buffalo, three buffalos, four buffaloes? This is confusing. Drutt (talk) 10:24, 8 August 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: plural

message: Yea, I think someone made a sentence that was just seven Buffalo's back to back that ended up being a grammatically correct sentence. 128.205.228.150 (talk) 05:21, 11 February 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: It's already listed – linked from the "see also" section: Buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo.  It only works in US English – to British ears it's meaningless, as "buffalo" is not a verb to us.  Richard New Forest (talk) 23:06, 11 February 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm an American and I've never heard of the verb "to buffalo" before either. I think it's a pretty obscure verb in any version of English. Rreagan007 (talk) 00:23, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
thread_title: Buffalo buffalo etc sentence

message: This has been tagged since early Dec and there have been many edits, but they have mainly been people reverting each other - it hasn't changed much. What do people think still needs to be done? Boleyn3 (talk) 11:37, 12 February 2010 (UTC)

replies: text:  Then you obviously haven't read the MOS:DAB.  This article HAS to be a list of articles for subjects that are referred to by the single word "Buffalo". DABs are not lists of things from Buffalo or things that have Buffalo in their name.  I mean - really. Please check out the DAB project if you don't believe me WP:WPDAB  --Hutcher (talk) 20:08, 14 November 2010 (UTC)
thread_title: Clean-up

message: Please do no revert the edit I put in for quick disambiguation between bison and the city of Buffalo. These are the two common uses for both terms. --Dekema2 (talk) 17:16, 21 October 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: This new format goes against the manual of style for disambiguation pages. Giving one example of a page that has made another decision doesn't make it the new standard. -- Fyrael (talk) 06:54, 22 October 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: Where in the manual of style does it say otherwise? And what argument was made on the San Jose page to have common terms listed in the lead? I'd just like to know, I don't know the entire manual. --Dekema2 (talk) 18:42, 22 October 2014 (UTC)
