For starters, what’s this about “The actual name was Duck’s Ass, but propriety called for the name Ducktail to be used in mixed company”? “actual name”? As established by the ISO special subcommittee on hairstyle names, I suppose.

I for one am getting a bit tired of the images of corpses and other unnecessary imagery on Wikipedia. Can we please remove this one? It serves no purpose in the article, it is simply a corpse.

You really need to strip away most of the atmosphere; maybe giant reflectors to heat up the planet and boil it off. Then add some ice asteriods.

Clowder is a “collective” noun. You wont/shouldn’t find anyone writing “feral cat clowder”. The noun, cat, is made superfluous. It should be, and this was the point I was making, “feral clowder”, though I do accept feral cat colony has crept into the language.

The article speaks of using comets. However has anyone any information on using ice-comets and let them rain down on Venus? Could an ice-comet (used from the Kuiper Belt maybe) be carefully brought over, broken in smaller pieces and brought down into the atmosphere?

Does it make sense for assclown to redirect here? To me they are very different concepts. Opinions?

I agree with Ridley76, she [as we know] is the ruler of the monarchy, and being the ruler, she, over all, would be able to judge if a marriage is valid or not.

Canadians and Americans alike use pancake for a certain pleasurable experience. They protect against STD’s and are commonly used as condoms.

I was thinking more along the lines of “There are no verifiable cases of anyone being injured as a result of slipping on a banana skin.”

Thank you for the apology; however, everything you said about Doink can very easily apply to Jack, who is still on the list of fictional clowns. He does not appear outside of Jack-In-The-Box commercials, and he does little in the way of actual clowning.

I have added Telly Savalas as a an example of the results of shaving. He is famous without being controvertial, and maintained his image shaved throughout his career.

Do you really want to dumb down an international encyclopaedia by refusing to refer to a feral cat colony as a clowder? I’ve said the two words (well, one ancient word and your modern terminology) can co-exist in the same article. To quote you “American) references.”. Does Wikipedia exclude International English in preference to North American English? Is there an in-built prejudice and agenda to Americanise the entire English language? From the WP:NOR; OR Is Exluded if: “it provides new definitions of pre-existing terms”; Clowder pre-dates Feral cat colony by some tens of decades and is the correct collective noun.

If you don’t want to list it because of your personal opinion or because you think I tried to trick you then that is crazy and is not how we work in wiki and you know that. I have been doing lots of good things here on wikipedia and I never used wiki for my personal gain and I am not doing so now.

Moreover, I like cats, all cats, feral or otherwise, and clowder is such a cat word.
