I have cleaned away links that are irrelevant to the subject at hand, which is Hippocamp. I hope that won't seem too disciplined. Not every noun in a text need be blue-linked, simply to emphasize words. If we think of the Wikipedia reader, who needs to pick out the relevant links, or ones that will explain terms, we'll sense that "tree" and "sea" and "bronze" don't need linking here, interesting as each phenomenon may be. -- Wetman 14:42, 7 January 2007 (UTC)
Think that would be okay? While not used in the strict terminology of blazoning, mer-horse (as well as mer-lion, etc.) is also used in many heraldry guides as the quickest way to explain the charges. I'll leave it up to you. House of Scandal 16:59, 7 January 2007 (UTC)
Should it be mentioned that the Peophin (Neopets) looks a hippocampus or a derivation of it? 76.104.152.214 ( talk) 03:31, 15 May 2008 (UTC)
I have noticed that the text uses noth "hippocamps" and "hippocampi" as plural form interchangeably. Although both are correct, I suggest deciding on one form as to not confuse the reader. Plus, one could take "hippocampoi" to be correct also, from "ἱπποκαμποι", the correct Greek plural. Wethertisnobler ( talk) 20:46, 20 January 2011 (UTC)
The result of the move request was: moved per request. Favonian ( talk) 21:32, 16 March 2014 (UTC)
Hippocamp → Hippocampus (mythology) – Hippocampus seems to be the most used word by far, and even the citations used in this article use hippocampus. The target was moved here in 2006, but the discussion seems to be nonexistent. Lewis Hulbert ( talk) 13:50, 9 March 2014 (UTC)
