Brahman/Brahmin
Why combine these two terms? Although they are very similar in spelling/pronunciation, they have two very distinctive meanings. --SharonW 13:51, 24 August 2011 (EDT)
- They do not seem worth 2 full entries, and they are easier to learn together. One could be moved to honors, but it seems unhelpful to separate the terms.--Andy Schlafly 17:57, 24 August 2011 (EDT)
- Actually, why not eliminate brahmin altogether? It is already defined somewhat under "caste", and the other three caste categories are not included in the term list - there's no reason to single out brahmin. --SharonW 23:15, 25 August 2011 (EDT)
- But the concept of "brahmin" appears more often, and thus is more important, than the other caste levels. It's even a common term in English, as in referring to wealthy (and typically liberal) families in Boston.--Andy Schlafly 12:18, 30 August 2011 (EDT)
Demosthenes
Andy, which Demosthenes do you want described - the general or the statesman? --SharonW 12:12, 30 August 2011 (EDT)
- The statesman would be more important, so let's refer to him.--Andy Schlafly 12:17, 30 August 2011 (EDT)
Subscript
Can we remove the subscript from this page? Some of us are old and have difficulty reading the small font. --SharonW 10:05, 8 September 2011 (EDT)
- I made it "small" as a compromise. --SharonW 13:30, 9 September 2011 (EDT)
Nile River
Andy, the Nile River has been added to both sections - which one do you want it in? --SharonW 13:26, 9 September 2011 (EDT)
Two terms should be combined
Two basic terms, taijitu and yin and yang, are the same thing. Shouldn't they be combined? --SharonW 18:25, 8 October 2011 (EDT)
- Great suggestion. I just combined them.--Andy Schlafly 20:25, 8 October 2011 (EDT)
