- Misplaced Pages talk:Manual of Style (dates and numbers)#Via RfC/Style issues - A recent ruling by the Arbitration committee has been interpreted as authorization for a program to eliminate "American" dates from all articles not directly concerning "America", and as requiring "International" (i.e., British) Dates in all other articles, despite the ruling having indicated that one should "defer to the style used by the first major contributor", and that it "would be wrong to switch simply to change styles". Further input on this interpretation is requested. 00:30, 24 August 2006 (UTC)

- Misplaced Pages talk:Lists (stand-alone lists)#Proposed addition re: chronological lists - Proposal to standardize all chronological lists to earliest-to-latest style, with the exception of certain special cases. General community input wanted. 11:34, 15 August 2006 (UTC)
- Misplaced Pages talk:Manual of Style (Islam-related articles)#Manual of Style in Referencing Muhammad - There is some discussion over whether the Manual of Style should be changed to allow Muhammad to be referred to as the "Prophet Muhammad". 10:07, 6 August 2006 (UTC)
- Catflap has been suggested to be moved to Pet Door several times, as cat flap is uk-centric, not as common usage, and obviously biased towards cats, while dogs use them as well. i see no good reason to not just move the bloody thing, aside from the gang of brits on the talk page who seem to obsess over this and impose their regional POV.

- Talk:Athletics#Athletics or track and field? -- The page about running and jumping sports currently uses the "official" international name, which is all but unknown in common usage in the U.S. (where "athletics" means something completely different). Should the page keep the name Athletics, or be called Track and field? -- 22:29, 16 July 2006 (UTC)
- Talk:Lindy Hop and Misplaced Pages Talk:WikiProject Dance - Disagreement about whether the names of dances are proper nouns and should be capitalized.
