I am minded to remove the headlines from this page, or at least revert to the bolded ones. I've noticed before the tacit criticism of the WP:Greece crowd that my articles are not appropriately structured: I take this to mean they don't have sections. I deliberately chose not to add any when writing this page. My own view is that are article of less than 1000 words doesn't need them, and that someone not on ritalin would have no difficulty reading a 600 word article without the aid of headlines. Furthermore headlines disrupt the flow of the prose (at least I like to imagine my prose flows) and do not improve the page layout of a short piece. This is merely a personal preference, so if anyone violently disagrees I will demur. Twospoonfuls 14:44, 21 April 2007 (UTC) reply

Women, young or old, unmarried, married or widowed, could not be called κανηφόροι. Κανηφόραι, yes. That is why the Romans transcribed it canephorae and not canephoroe. Imerologul Valah ( talk) 19:50, 31 July 2019 (UTC) reply
