 * Disagree. `Superfinicky Ironmongery is a distinct reference to architectural hardware, notably brass, bronze and other specially cast products of decorative nature. An Ironmonger is he who makes it.  It is becoming superfluous, the term is rarely correctly used any more as all of the fancy decorative fittings are now being cast in brass, bronze, aluminium and zamac, a zinc aluminium alloy.  The correct thing to do would be to change the reference completely to either "Architectural Hardware" or "Decorative Hardware" which is what ironmongery is know for throughout North America and most of the English speaking world, barring the UK, Australia and New Zealand.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Superfinicky (talk • contribs) 21:13, 19 January 2009 (UTC)
