Old-Timey

[edit]

There is an Old-Timey Homestar Runner toon of the same name! 198.228.228.30 (talk) 13:01, 19 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]


Anecdotal

[edit]

Just anecdotal, so I won't add, but the way the Northern Irish game is described was the way we played in in the Western US in the 1960s. I don't think there would have been any direct Irish influence, and there were no kids from outside the US in the neighborhood.

Splitting proposal

[edit]

I propose that section Kick the can down the road be split into a separate page called Kick the can down the road(currently a redirect to this page). This phrase has a different meaning than the subject of the article.WP:NOT#DICT. Lurking shadow (talk) 19:59, 19 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

 Done I removed the second topic which is just an idiom dictdef and used a wikt soft redirect for the previous incoming redirect to section Kick the can down the road so it doesn't target here now. I left a wikt box with both terms in the last section (ref section) per WP:ORDER although a hatnote is better but AFAIK we don't put soft wikt redirects into hatnotes, and if we do then someone can fix that.
