Re: "There are some, among en:Wikipedia's 1,500,000, of which (I think) we are unlikely ever to have Latin equivalents. I'll give a couple of examples, then, from the "Latest changes" on Wikipedia: [[:en:Sheet metal gauges]]."—Well, 'gold leaf' in my 18th-century dictionary is ''aurum bracteatum, foliaceum,'' vel ''in folia extensum.'' So pick one and you've got, say ''metallum bracteatum,'' and the "gauges" are actually measures of thickness, so just copy the "Tabula Crassitudinum Metalli Bracteati" and you've got an article almost as complete as en:'s. Ha! [[Usor:IacobusAmor|IacobusAmor]] 03:48, 21 Ianuarii 2007 (UTC)
:Is sheet metal really the same as gold leaf? ''Bractea'' is certainly traditional for leaf, though I am told that in antiquity it refered to a small thin sheet of precious metal. At the conventiculum it is frequently used for "foil." --[[Usor:Iustinus|Iustinus]] 07:48, 21 Ianuarii 2007 (UTC)
::Yes, gold leaf (''aurum bracteatum, aurum foliaceum, aurum in folia extensum'') would seem to be a superthin kind of sheet metal. [[Usor:IacobusAmor|IacobusAmor]] 14:18, 6 Octobris 2010 (UTC)

::Secundum [[Iacobus Wales|Iacobum Wales]], conditorem nostrum, ''unusquisque'' homo bene de commentario meretur! Circa 7,000,000,000 [[biographia]]s requirimus! Inclutissimum dictum vicipaedianum est "[[Vicipaedia non est papyrus]]!" [[Usor:IacobusAmor|IacobusAmor]] 11:06, 12 Augusti 2008 (UTC)
:::You are more experienced than I am. Are you being serious? If so, I'll believe you. However, [[en:Wikipedia:Notability_(people)]] contradicts your attitude.--[[Usor:Iovis Fulmen|Iovis Fulmen]] 13:05, 12 Augusti 2008 (UTC)
::::The ''Wall Street Journal'' (I think it was) had an article on this topic a few days ago. The article [[en:Wikipedia:Notability_(people)]] is a temporary compromise in the perpetual war between exclusionists & inclusionists. Jimmy Wales, our founder, is an inclusionist. His point is that "Wikipedia is not paper," and there's hence no reason to exclude anything from it on thisthe basis of the limitations of the old media; everything can be included. Exclusionists try to extend to wikipedia the standards of the old media. So it seems that exclusionists are conservatives, and inclusionists are liberals. ::winkwink:: [[Usor:IacobusAmor|IacobusAmor]] 13:13, 12 Augusti 2008 (UTC)
:::::That is of course a compelling argument. What still keeps me from taking the inclusionists' stance is that personally I wouldn't even want myself to be written about. It would make things easier, of course: No need for discussions about gravitas. --[[Usor:Iovis Fulmen|Iovis Fulmen]] 06:58, 13 Augusti 2008 (UTC)
::::::"I wouldn't even want myself to be written about."—But you ''will'' be written about. If you're a U.S. citizen, you'll be enrolled in the Social Security program—and when you expire, pertinent facts of your life (your date of birth, the place where you became enrolled, your Social Security number, and your date of death and residential address at the time) will be put online in the Social Security Death Index, as they already have been for many millions of Americans, making a tidy little article for each of them.
