OK I've made a start. There's plenty more could be said about each sign. Have fun! Shantavira 12:33, 12 Apr 2004 (UTC)

Someone should show how the months maps to the star signs... Paul 19:06, 14 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] How about the dates

I looked this up to find out what sign I am

If you wanted to find out what sign you were, go look over at astrology and look at the constellations. Those list the dates. -- Remixed 12:33, 20 Feb 2006 (UTC)


[edit] Astrological sign for graphic designers

Some artists/designers referring to this Wikipedia page might still find it difficult to reproduce the astrological signs in high-resolution details. I've found an easy way. Would someone familiar with this article please include this info in the article (in the proper place and style)?

To produce the 12 signs in a Windows environment, input "^_`abcdefghi" and apply the "Wingdings" font. Voila, you can enlarge to say 50 point font, and output your graphic file to EPS/PNG/JPG format for very fine graphic details.

I will try to demonstrate it here:

^_`abcdefghi.

is from an IP having made lots of addition of these pages, most of which seem completely unnecesary, could someone with more insight into these areas please check if the website is notable? Lundse 15:33, 30 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Dates

I guess I am slightly confused. I was born on April 20th and I know I am a taurus. The dates on http://www.astrology.com/sundates.html confirm this. Why are the dates different on the wiki?

  • The dates change from year to year. Also you are a cusp

What is meant by "long things"?

[edit] Encyclopedic Voice

This article is INCREDIBLY hard to read, especially toward the bottom. Sentences like "So we might have..." need to GO. It doesn't make sense to me, otherwise I'd change it, so could someone with some knowledge please fix this? Heatherfire 19:38, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Article Cleanup Co-Ordination Point

Cleanup Co-ordination
This article has recently been tagged as requiring cleanup to meet Wikipedia's quality standards.

The article may have been flagged as needing cleanup because it has been suggested that:

  • the article needs formatting, proofreading, or rephrasing in comprehensible English.
  • the article has multiple overlapping problems.
  • the article is very short and might need expanding, removal or merging with a broader article

For a full list of possible problems see Wikipedia:Manual of Style.

As part of the cleanup process, the automated bot PocKleanBot has generated this notice as a focus of cleanup efforts, and also contacted several contributing editors of the article to bring their attention to the problem. You should use this section to discuss possible resolution of the problem and achieve consensus for action. Only when there is a consensus that the article is now cleaned up should you then de-list it by deleting the cleanup tag from the article, this causes the article to drop off the monthly cleanup-needed list page.
