[edit] "six spoke wheel"

Take a look at English plural. A quick google search reveals that "<number> spoked wheel" is rarely used, but "<number> spoke wheel" is common. Vegasprof 08:39, 29 April 2007 (UTC)

One-legged man, three-headed dog, acute-angled triangle, etc but four-door car, five-shelf bookcase, hundred-page book. I have to say six-spoke wheel sounds very unnatural to me. In any case when there are two admissible spellings, Wikipedia policy is that as long as there are no glaring inconsistencies it doesn't matter. Xanthoxyl 14:15, 5 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Translation

I plan to replace some remaining German text by English. Vegasprof 08:39, 29 April 2007 (UTC)

Never mind: it seems that the translation is being done by someone else. Vegasprof 08:43, 29 April 2007 (UTC)
