Can the header be changed to either Firths (Sottish) or Firths of Scotland? I am not sure how to do it. Dieter

If you're logged in you can move pages. But is it necessary in this case? Does anything else need the page "Firth"? If not, then "Firth" is the simplest name for the page and probably the best. -- Tarquin 21:44 Oct 15, 2002 (UTC)

Ok, no problem, we'll leave it like this. Thabks

[edit] Programming

As of 00:04, 26 July 2006, 130.67.252.180 added "(a Scandinavian programming language is named just this, related to forth, available at [1]." This appears to me to be a non notable pun on Forth so I've reverted it, but note the suggestion here. ..dave souza, talk 08:17, 26 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Meaning of "kyle"

I suggest removing the reference to "kyles" in the opening paragraph; the Gaelic origin is 'caolas', meaning a narrows or ferry-crossing place and therefore almost opposite to the definition of 'firth'.

Untrue, many of these bodies are similar to firths on the east coast.--MacRusgail (talk) 18:57, 29 May 2008 (UTC)
