Spanish word "el"
Is there a policy or something to dissuade one from putting the meaning of "el" in Spanish here? Does the same word also exist in related languages (Catalan, Portuguese ...?)-- era (Talk | History) 19:15, 30 November 2007 (UTC)

wikilinks
I removed wiki links per Manual of Style (disambiguation pages) and now some of them are back. The manual says :


 * Unlike a regular article page, don't wikilink any other words in the line, unless they may be essential to help the reader determine which page they are looking for; these pages aren't for exploration, but only to help the user navigate to a specific place. Thus:


 * * "Dark Star", a song by the Grateful Dead — or — "Dark Star", a song by The Grateful Dead
 * * not: "Dark Star", a song by the psychedelic rock band The Grateful Dead

Could we please come to consensus on what we're to do with links? Tedernst 09:45, 10 November 2005 (UTC)


 * I didn't knew about it. Not sure that I agree, but fire away! Nikola 17:23, 10 November 2005 (UTC)


 * Yes, well, I removed the links and now some of them are back. Are they essential? Tedernst 20:04, 10 November 2005 (UTC)


 * I put them back, I thought they are important, but didn't knew about the rule. I won't put them back if you remove them again. Nikola 13:40, 11 November 2005 (UTC)

superman
Are either of these characters known as simply "el" such that someone looking for either of them would end up on this page? If so, then obivously, they need to stay on this page. If not, however, they shouldn't be here. Tedernst | talk 23:04, 18 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Jor-El and Kal-El are two characters in all major versions of the Superman mythology

chicago L
A. Shouldn't that be under L not El

B. Elevated train lines are most certainly still used in New York City, and should not be mentioned in the same sentence as Chicago.

C. It is called the El, because it is an elevated train. It is incorrect to spell it as L. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 63.134.253.76 (talk) 12:47, 4 April 2008 (UTC)
