'Raw' in a New York accent is not sufficient for many people such as I, a 2nd language Queen's English (British) speaker. I find American English hard to envisage in itself. Perhaps another example? Or more than one? -- 94.192.80.191 ( talk) 16:05, 11 April 2010 (UTC)
The 'Pronunciation' section should be re-introduced because the phonetic entity [ɔː] is comparatively rare, absent or unstable in most languages, and who exactly uses it in English and in which words is a very complicated issue.
The above suggestions were made by me, but I wasn't logged in — Levente Frindt ( talk) 11:05, 4 August 2015 (UTC)

I removed the line quoting Jesus from the Christian bible. It was unobjective and irrelevant to the Greek letter. If a section was added for popular culture refrences, it might fit better. Mequellios ( talk) 02:34, 28 May 2013 (UTC)
What is "mathematical sans-serif bold italic p.ooo omega" supposed to be? (Unicode U+1D7D4)
Every other reference I can find indicates that U+1D7D4 is MATHEMATICAL BOLD DIGIT SIX. I don't think that belongs on this page. 128.2.127.25 ( talk) 16:39, 5 September 2014 (UTC)
There is a content dispute on whether or not the addition of the Watch company and that Omega is often in sorority and fraternity names should be included in the intro of this article.
I believe it shouldn't be included as that is why we have the for other uses see...at the top of the page.-- VViking Talk Edits 15:11, 14 January 2019 (UTC)
“ꭥ” Unicode Character 'GREEK LETTER SMALL CAPITAL OMEGA' (U+AB65) in Latin Extended-E might be a good addition to the list at the bottom? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Matthewmorrone1 ( talk • contribs) 18:42, 26 February 2020 (UTC)
@ Omegatron: First off all, I always recommend that editors provide an explanation for why they are reverting in the edit summary, rather than leaving it blank and posting something else somewhere else. It saves time via the notification system, watch lists, etc. to have it on that diff.
Anyway, regarding your follow up edits in the minutes that followed, what are you talking about? You refer me to an article about search algorithms, instead of policy. The source edit window that I've used for years includes Unicode characters. I've seen other experienced editors converting HTML entities to Unicode. I referenced MOS:MARKUP. And I just ran a simple test and found you to be wrong: ΩΩ
Please walk me through your stance a little more slowly, if you would, for my own edification. Otherwise, you're just looking wrong. — void xor 21:16, 25 April 2023 (UTC)
