My ideas
[edit]- More regional lists of legendary creatures to add to Lists of legendary creatures
- Blue Peter Time Capsules - time capsules laid down by Blue Peter, as recently brought back into the news e.g. here
- Looking into this a bit more, there maybe not be enough material to warrant a separate article. A new section of the Blue Peter article might make more sense.
- Reticulating splines - a long-running in-joke in computer game loading screens
- TransAm Trucking, Inc. v. Admin. Review Bd. - the "Frozen Trucker Case" that got so much attention during Neil Gorsuch's Supreme Court nomination hearings
- Cuneo Press - once the largest press in Chicago.[1] See Cuneo Museum.
- Television ratings - a disambig. Doesn't seem to be a page or article section about the concept of TV ratings in general, just the US-specific Nielsen ratings and the more abstract Audience measurement
- Temporary insanity - only a few lines on a more general page. This could probably be expanded into something stand-alone.
- Template or tool to make it easier to reference Encyclopedia.com e.g. this page, where you have to reference both the title of the page, the name of the work ("Contemporary Novelists"), and Encyclopedia.com itself.
- Voter enthusiasm or, more likely, find a suitable redirect target
- Public Opinion Strategies see Neil Newhouse
- Victorian headless photography. See ru:Викторианский безголовый портрет, cf Horsemaning
- Civic sword, List of ceremonial swords of Britain, Sword and mace or similar, as in the Pearl Sword. Cities with such things include Waterford, Galway, Dublin[2], Bath, Preston, York[3], Lichfield, Ipswich, Limerick, Worcester, Wigan, plus South Carolina
- A broader Mayoral regalia article would be a lot of fun - swords, maces, chains of office, oars[4], cups...
- Collective failure
- School photograph
- Footwear News Achievement Awards (see this AfD)
- Andrew Lowe - amateur astronomer and identifier of asteroids. Number one on Wikipedia:Most-wanted articles#May 2016 list
- subtlety - currently a redirect to entremet, and subtle is a disambiguation page with no mention of subtlety apart from a very easy to miss (well played) link to Wiktionary
- ballet school
- TULCA Festival of Visual Arts [5][6]
- Rhianna Dhillon - [7]
- CIRCA - [8]
- David Boadella
- From Shady Side (steamboat)
- Sylvan Dell – steamboat [9] see Lawrence & Foulks § Recovery, 1871–73, Commons category
- Morrisania Steamboat Company
- The Oleans Democrat – newspaper[10]
- The Sons of Columbia – widespread secret society, at least in the 1880s[11]
- From Fernanda Jacobsen:
- Walter Maxwell-Scott (Sir Walter Joseph Constable Maxwell-Scott, 1st Bt)
- Scottish Ambulance unit
- Scottish Friends of National Spain
- Spanish Medical Aid Committee – currently a redirect to a page that doesn't mention it
- Auxilio Social
- Daniel Gray (author), author of Homage to Caledonia
- {{anecdotal}} – an inline cleanup template similar to {{Undue weight inline}} where an anecdote is being given that could be better served with data (as with the "A woman patient was in several hospitals..." passage of Mental health in the United Kingdom). Would need a maintenance category, and probably prior discussion as it would be quite visible if included in the usual templates and lists of workflows.
