Is there any chance of an IPA pronunciation for the Manx name for this location? Jimjamjak ( talk) 13:07, 29 July 2008 (UTC)
This is at best an alternative name, most reputable sources call it the Calf of Man, e.g. Isle of Man government website, Ordnance Survey maps etc. Dabbler ( talk) 13:31, 9 August 2011 (UTC)
So what are the "postage stamps" issued by some entity or other? There are quite a number of them, labeled "Calf of Man – Isle of Man", with "denominations" like 8m, 84m and 90m, with out any indication what that "m" might stand for. Are these some kind of licensing or other revenue stamps, like U.S. duck stamps? Or just something cute to sell to tourists and unwary stamp collectors who may mistake them for real postage? If the Manx government or Manx Heritage or some other "official" entity is issuing them, they probably deserve mention in the article (and otherwise probably don't, like if they're just some touristy shop's idea). — SMcCandlish Talk⇒ ʕ(Õلō)ˀ Contribs. 05:42, 11 August 2011 (UTC)
