NOS=not otherwise specified--a generic catchall also you will see NEC=not elsewhere classified

somesections will have NEC followed by NOS just incase you didn' find the NEC ambiguous enough!


[edit] NOS

What does NOS mean? By the way, it is now linked to the NOS disambiguation page (links shoud not be linked disambiguation pages), and I find nothing good in it. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Cate (talkcontribs) 05:50, 9 August 2005 (UTC).

Not Otherwise Specified. Indeed a very confusing term. JFW | T@lk 16:52, 9 August 2005 (UTC)
