Nilep
Oh! Funny, I always assumed unthinkingly that Cnilep was either some kind of backwards-written word (hmm, pelinc?!) or anagram (of pencil?), or somehow alluding to Cyrillic, and it just occurred to me (as I began to think about it more consciously) that your handle could stand for Спилер, a Cyrillic/Russian rendering of spieler (presumably, somebody who has a tendency to spiel – although, if the German word Spieler or its Yiddish equivalent shpiler, which also exists as a surname, is meant, one would expect Шпилер instead). It never occurred to me that it could be a real name before I checked your user page! Nilep sounds quite exotic and I've never encountered a similar name. Where is your name from? Some Indic language perhaps? --Florian Blaschke (talk) 18:48, 29 July 2014 (UTC)

Question
If you know about language, any ideas how I can reference the term Cover your ass; I got references from William Safire but I am wondering whether you know of any linguistic sources that might be helpful.--Tomwsulcer (talk) 20:27, 26 August 2014 (UTC)

Marriage Equality
There is a discussion underway forming a consensus on that disambiguation talk page. It is possible the page will be altered from its current form.--Mark Miller (talk) 01:26, 17 September 2014 (UTC)
