Theory of Everything
I stuck a reference to "Theory of Everything" into the "see also" section and it was almost immediately deleted. My motivation for putting it there is that "TOE" is almost universally used whenever the "Theory of Everything" is discussed in any written format, and because when I went to see whether the Theory of Everything was on the server, the first thing I searched for was "toe." TOE or ToE is very common in popular science articles written in the last several years. If you imagine someone picking up a magazine or newspaper article that mentioned the TOE or the GUT but did not have ready access to the first paragraph, that person would likely have no idea of what the construction/acronym meant. In such a case, the Wikipedia is a good first place to look... but only if the TOE entry was present. I'm gonna put it back in. If you're the moderator who zapped my entry and who won't accept unencrypted mail, please leave it alone. -- ken 21NOV2003
- i think the best thing would be to solve the redirect from toe to foot as a disambiguation .. have done it -- Ebricca 13:49, 27 Nov 2003 (UTC)
Scope
Should the foot article really restrict itself to the human body, or should it talk about the foot as an appendage common to many different animals? Note that other biological forms of foot are not addressed on the disambiguation page. --Michael Snow 02:45, 1 Apr 2004 (UTC)
- It should cover all animals. It is clear that this page needs some expert attention. Pete/Pcb21 (talk) 08:50, 1 Apr 2004 (UTC)
Pictures
I have to wonder, do we really need three pictures of human feet? It's not like any of us here can't take a look at our own. AndyCapp 04:15, 6 Jun 2004 (UTC)
- hey! I worked hard to provide that picture with just the bones. And it hurt like hell getting all that flesh off. →Raul654 04:19, Jun 6, 2004 (UTC)
- And no offense to whoever's feet those are, but couldn't we get someone with better looking feet? AndyCapp 05:19, 6 Jun 2004 (UTC)
- I inserted a pic of nice healthy feet that also demonstrates how the footprint shold be! Should we remove the old ugly ones??--Lorenz kerscher 15:16, 6 Nov 2004 (UTC)
- I remember reading that showing the bottom of one's foot is very considered very offensive among Thais and Arabs. The siblings picture, cute as it is, does seem like an unnecessary offense. Pekinensis 17:49, 9 Mar 2005 (UTC)
Beautiful Human Feet
There is nothing wrong with human feet, they should be admired and worshiped, and the pictures of those feet are beautiful.
