Talk:Tiger (disambiguation)

Cleanup
This page was marked for cleanup per MoS:DAB. I removed the following entries for non-notability as a wikipedia entry or for unlikelyhood of "tiger" as a search term for them: Removed for being red-links and having a rather empty "What links here" page, i.e. highly suspected of non-notability: Removed as per MoS:DAB: In the cases where my rationale was obviously wrong, please copy the mistakenly removed entry back on the main page. – sgeureka t•c 23:03, 18 April 2007 (UTC)

New dab page
I created a new disamiguation page at The Tigers ... it was a Japanese band article, but the number of 'see also's had gotten rather unwieldy. I linked it at the top of this disambiguation page. ~ Eliz 81 (C)  03:35, 29 April 2008 (UTC)

TIGER Federal Grant Program

Tiger something vs. a (something) tiger
The rules of English syntax make it clear that, for example, chocolate milk is a kind of milk, while milk chocolate is a kind of chocolate. Therefore, we don't need every animal called "a tiger fish" or "tiger flower", but rather only those called, for example "marsupial tiger" or "saber-tooth tiger".

 * The butterflies are all "foo tiger", not "tiger foo" (I think most folks would be pretty WP:ASTONISHed by where Malay tiger leads). And Arctiidae notes that tiger moths may be referred to simply as "tigers". These entries belong here. Plantdrew (talk) 20:12, 15 July 2015 (UTC)
