Talk:Cover girl

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] Changes

Reworded/took out article content so the article is from a relatively NPOV. Still needs work! Rewrite, perhaps expand a bit. Sections needed? Ideas: Famous cover girls, external links to magazines that have cover girls, an image or two. NOTE: Deleted most of my previous discussion comments because most of it was unneeded explanation (can already view changes via history.) Atellus 04:44, 9 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] etymology

Checking with paper dictionaries and dictionary.com suggest that 1915 is the correct 'first usage' date, Dictionary.Com Link. I've removed the comment (which probably should have been on here in the first place?) trying to find a reputable source to link with a permanent content url rather than a search. --JeffUK 19:19, 9 March 2006 (UTC)

Thanks. That was me that left that comment on there, I'm still new to Wikipedia as a whole. My apologies. Atellus 23:04, 9 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] 2 reasons why the picture should be removed.

The picture seems to be advertisement for tobacco smoking. I think this makes it illegal to link to in England and I am not even sure if it legal to view using the internet.

The other reason is that, I think, it would be considerred, by most people with asthma, to be in bad taste, unless, of course, it was on a page about tobacco advertising. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Alec - U.K. (talk • contribs) .

I am sympathetic to your plea, Alec, but I do not believe a historical image in this context infringes any laws in the UK. Perhaps we should let those with asthma (I am not one, so I cannot say for sure) let us know whether such an image would cause them concern.—Stombs 13:39, 15 January 2007 (UTC)
