[edit] Discussion
dont all albums in america come out on tuesday?--NJ Rock 01:23, 18 December 2006 (UTC)NJ Rock
Why do things seam to happen mostly on Tuesdays (e.i movie releases, server farm resets, software updates, voting poles, etc.)? I know there might not be just one answer, but it would be interesting to hear the people have to say about it. Nadegoboom 21:19, 1 February 2007 (UTC)
- I believe movie release days are regional. In California, they come out on Friday, but in Michigan where I grew up, they always came out on Wednesday. I think the film industry does this to make it easier to ship the thousands of prints they need to make whenever they release a big film. --MiguelMunoz (talk) 21:18, 14 April 2008 (UTC)
In the U.S., many new books are scheduled for Tuesday releases as well. 69.229.20.210 18:24, 27 February 2007 (UTC)
"Tuesday is also associated with the ex-planet Pluto. People born on this day show the qualities of Mars, Aries, Scorpio, and Pluto"-Astrology why is Pluto called ex-planet? gotta put a reference User:eg7eg7 4:38, 23 March 2008 (UTC)
- That would be because Pluto is no longer a planet. I changed it to "dwarf planet" from "ex-planet". -- timc talk 13:47, 23 March 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Romance Languages
It's fascinating that the word for Tuesday in Irish so closely resembles that in Romance language, but Irish isn't a romance language! If anybody knows of similar languages (Welsh? Gaelic?) that have similar words for Tuesday, could they put them into their own paragraph? If not, we need to clarify this point. --MiguelMunoz (talk) 21:18, 14 April 2008 (UTC)
- Good catch! Our days of the week article says both Welsh and Irish use preserved Latin names, though there wasn't a source. So I went looking. Have both clarified the statement here and sourced it both here and there. And learned something new :) WikiJedits (talk) 20:51, 16 April 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Revamped Monday thru Thursday
I sincerely hope I haven't treaded on anyone's toes by restructuring these pages, but there really wasn't any consistency among them, and some pages looked awful messy. Of course feel free to revert or edit what I've changed. Unfortunately I never haver had time to do Friday to Sunday. Annatto (talk) 19:15, 26 April 2008 (UTC)
- I don't mind consistency, but did you use an older version? The references I put in for Mars Thingsus and the Celtic languages have disappeared. Hope you don't mind them being put back. WikiJedits (talk) 13:09, 29 April 2008 (UTC)
