Basic Techniques[edit]

According to WP:NOT#IINFO:

While Wikipedia has descriptions of people, places, and things, Wikipedia articles should not include instructions or advice (legal, medical, or otherwise), suggestions, or contain "how-to"s. This includes tutorials, walk-throughs, instruction manuals, video game guides, and recipes.

It seems that according to the policy, this section should be removed. If nobody objects, I will remove it. Jhinman 04:38, 3 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Etymology[edit]

I'd be interested to hear about the origin of the term "mogul" in this respect. Pimlottc 03:09, 23 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It almost certainly comes from the Austro-Bavarian "Mugel" designating a bump or a small hill and pronounced along the lines of /mʊgəl/ or /-gl/. At least in Austria we call those slopes "Mugelpiste" - mogul slope. even found a reference: http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/mogul Vainguard (talk) 06:20, 8 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Ladies -> Women[edit]

A brief discussion here has agreed that "women" should be used consistently across all Wiki-pages concerning FIS competitions. Therefore I changed ever in-text mention of "ladies" to "women". Judith Sunrise (talk) 17:03, 25 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
