 | On 9 October 2021, it was proposed that this article be moved to Sic (disambiguation). The result of the discussion was not moved. |
This came from the
- *SIC (Sekolah Indonesia Cairo) or Indonesian School In Cairo
entry:
- link official website this school is located in 63 Mosaddak st. Dokki, Cairo, Egypt. This school also functioned as the Indonesian culture center in Egypt beside The Indonesian Embassy. One can learn/have a course in Bahasa Indonesia (Indonesian Language) here.
just in case someone can out-imagine me and create a valid WP article on this school or at least Indoneasian overseas schools. It has no place in a Dab, tho, in the absence of such an article.
On the other hand,
- stands for "Sans Intention Comique" (without comic intention) meaning that even if the preceding text could be understood as funny, it was not meant to be (analogous to "no pun intended" in English).
is a dictdef as it stands and has no place in a Dab; this text could go into
French writing conventions or some better idea for an article.

I am french and I can certify that in french "sic" means "as it is written here" in 99.9% of the cases. And I am not joking... -- ArséniureDeGallium 17:10, 2 September 2005 (UTC)
I have changed this entry to more accurately reflect the meaning. It is a common mistake, as the previous entry showed, to believe the word is or can only be used to indicate an error. Alci12 12:37, 3 December 2005 (UTC)
The entry for Sic (Latin) on this page is far too in depth for a disambig. - Stoph 21:40, 21 December 2005 (UTC)
I don't believe it, either. Acronyms mostly date from the latter half of the twentieth century.
SIC Information
does this not have a meaning in the USA as a slang word?
Somebody should write it on the slipknot meaning cause I see everybody going (SIC) all the time (and frankly its annoying) but I dunno what the hell they mean by it.
I cleaned up this disambiguation page per MOS:DAB. I removed for unclear notability:
- SIC The " Trail by Fire" for all worthy Air Cadets
- SIC (Sekolah Indonesia Cairo): Indonesian School In Cairo
- "[sic]" is the tenth track on the album of the same name by George Hrab
- "[sic!]," the title of an album by Hey
- Swiss Interbanking Clearing, a clearing system
- Standard Inventory Control, a method of handling warehouse items
Removed for being a dictionary defintion:
- As in "sic 'em" said to encourage a dog to chase and bite: arose as a quick pronunciation of "seek".
Removed as expired prod:
- SIC (criminal organisation), a Bulgarian insurance company which actually activities were criminal

SIC → Sic (disambiguation) – "SIC" in all caps being the disambiguation page citing "Sic" in sentence case as the main article of interest doesn't make sense. IAmAnIndividual ( talk) 23:17, 9 October 2021 (UTC)
- Comment: There are others like this. "sic" without the uppercase has a definite primary topic, but "SIC" with all-uppercase does not, so the dab page was placed at the ambiguous capitalization. Very few topics are listed on the dab page that aren't all-uppercase. — BarrelProof ( talk) 05:17, 10 October 2021 (UTC)

- @ 85.67.32.244, There are a few more examples in the 'other' section, such as Sic, Cluj. However, I agree that most of the entries are for SIC. Sic (disambiguation) should be redirected to SIC. ― Qwerfjkl talk 20:06, 10 October 2021 (UTC)
Yes, I lost count a couple of times: I count five including SiC and Marco Simoncelli. I wonder whether entries where the name is stylised should use or mention that style in the DAB. We don't have the square brackets for technical reasons. With this edit I put the stylization in the existing piped link, but didn't change others where the link was not piped. 85.67.32.244 ( talk) 05:07, 11 October 2021 (UTC)WP:SOCKSTRIKE -- Tamzin cetacean needed (she/they) 03:54, 16 October 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose I didn't count, but it looks like most of the entries are acronyms in all-caps. A good use of SMALLDETAILS. User:力 (power~enwiki, π, ν) 23:47, 11 October 2021 (UTC)
Redirect from SIC (journal) or SIC (magazine)
Could an autoconfirmed user please create a redirect to Pierre Albert-Birot § SIC so that we can more maintainably and naturally put it in the DAB entry? I've altered the DAB entry now that I have edited th>e article to put SIC in its own section, and I've left an anchor there. So the content of the redirect would look like this:
#REDIRECT:
Pierre Albert-Birot#SIC
{{rshell|
{{R to anchor}}
{{R with possibilities}}
}}
There's no forum for IPs to request creation of redirects, so I can't do it myself. Were it just for the DAB I'd not ask, but it may be useful for the search engine (and thus ultimately our readers) too. But it's not as if this article gets high traffic.
Sorry for the bad formatting but I've tried to make it easy to cut-'n'-paste- To create a draft page would seem excessive. 85.67.32.244 ( talk) 06:53, 11 October 2021 (UTC)
- I've created the redirect as requested. Is a redirect enough to be listed on a DAB page? I don't see why not. There appears to be a fairly substantial entry on the journal on the French Wikipedia, which could be a model if someone wanted to create a separate article in English. -- Hrossey ( talk) 18:56, 11 October 2021 (UTC)

WP:AFCRC? ― Qwerfjkl talk 19:02, 11 October 2021 (UTC)- @ Hrossey: thanks. The article was already at the DAB, it's how I found it. So the question is really "is a DAB entry enough to create a redirect?" I believe in this case it is, because any other way of listing it might be surprising or clumsy: Pierre Albert-Birot § SIC, or hiding the actual target in a pipe, etc.
- I'd forgotten about WP:AFCRC; that said, a talk page is the usual starting place to discuss any "improvement" to a page. 85.67.32.244 ( talk) 19:20, 11 October 2021 (UTC)
- I've made a start at translating from fr:SIC (revue), at Draft:SIC (journal). It will probably take me a few days, in bits and pieces. (In French, backwards run sentences – subclauses intervening always – until reels the mind.) 85.67.32.244 ( talk) 06:26, 12 October 2021 (UTC)
