[edit] SB/5?

Where has the forward slash come from? I've only ever seen a period used. Emoscopes Talk 00:18, 2 March 2007 (UTC)

I have before me a copy of the Shorts Quarterly Review, Autumn 1953, which uses "SB/5" throughout. There is a lack of consistency in designations across the normal sources but I feel that ultimately the manufacturers know best (unless they, too, are inconsistent!). TraceyR 10:43, 2 March 2007 (UTC)
I'm more than happy to go with that. I think, for simplicity's sake, it would be best to drop all dots, hyphens and slashes from Shorts namespaces, and put the "correct" punctuation (whichever they happen to be using on that day!) in the article body. Emoscopes Talk 13:15, 2 March 2007 (UTC)
