part of the head is called the crown ... do we need something on that too?
Can someone include this new finding in the "history section": http://www.newyorker.com/online/blogs/culture/2014/03/the-worlds-oldest-crown.html
I can wear a crown if I wanted to, but that doesn't mean I'm either of those. -- Dara July 8, 2005 01:26 (UTC)
Unless you are a multi-millionare, you couldn't afford one!

Ok. I was trying to get across that crowns are sometimes worn by actors to potray kings and such. I didn't catch it before in the article and I thought it should be added that (but I see there's no need now). :) Sorry about that. -- Dara July 9, 2005 02:56 (UTC)
what was the crown worn by the horseman? anyone know the original word. I know the original language used 2 diff words each genericly translated as a crown in the english versions, much like the words for grapejuice and wine all lose thier distinctions and are just called wine in english tranlations. One type of crown was for rulers and the other for victors but i don,t know thier names and wich one he wore. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.232.147.54 ( talk) 17:53, 4 April 2011 (UTC)
This wood-painting of Septimius Severus' family shows both Septimius Severus and his son Caracalla with a headgear that very much resembles other precursors to the modern crown. Any comments on this?

The result of the move request was: No consensus for anything. Very little support for the proposal. Some support for making this primary topic, but about equal opposition. ( non-admin closure) В²C ☎ 21:23, 14 May 2019 (UTC)
Crown (headgear) → Crown (regalia) – It looks like a redirect was created in 2005 from Crown (regalia) to Crown (headgear) with no discussion about which title might be the better one. Since a "crown" is also part of a hat (see Trilby) as well as part of the human head, and while all of them have to do with heads, having the namespace for the item of royal regalia at Crown (headgear) seems less intuitive to me than Crown (regalia), especially in light of the fact that there are so many other words with "gear" which have nothing to do with regalia (sports gear, rain gear, hunting gear, as well as other anatomical references like leg gear and arm gear).

The result of the move request was: moved. Root meaning and "longest-term significant" aren't criteria, as Red Slash noted, but the point of "more (long-term) significance" ( WP:PRIMARYTOPIC's "substantially greater enduring notability and educational value") seems to underpin the supports. I see this analogous to the "Apple" arrangement. -- JHunterJ ( talk) 11:33, 7 April 2020 (UTC)
– Regardless of any pageviews, this topic is the root meaning from which all others on the DAB derive. This makes it the longest-term significant topic of all. The current disambiguator "(headgear)" looks awkward, and so do other alternatives - often a sign that an article is WP:PRIMARYTOPIC. See the prior RM just above which showed strong support for this proposal. -- Netoholic @ 11:38, 30 March 2020 (UTC)

The word itself is used, particularly in Commonwealth countries, as an abstract name for the monarchy itself...
As a native of a Commonwealth country, this doesn't ring true at all. In an Australian context, the Crown normally refers to the legal authority of Commonwealth or State government. Enthusiastic monarchists may very well have the monarchy itself front of mind, but while they remain an extant species, they do not predominate. Aboctok ( talk) 15:46, 26 July 2023 (UTC)
