Talk:Snodgrass

Snodgrass Clan

I tried to clean up this section by removing or replacing words or phrases that were POV. I hated to delete information, but with missing citations, POV writing, and use of the word "me", wikification was needed. SINsApple 06:01, 16 January 2007 (UTC)

Etymology

"The name means "smooth grassy place" in Scottish Gaelic." No, it does not. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 139.68.134.1 (talk) 18:28, 8 March 2015 (UTC)

The Scots dialect is primarily an Old or Middle English derivative, not Gaelic. Grass is English, so is Snot. Bobby Burns says, in "Barnyards O' Delgaty"

"Now me caunle is brunt oot (candle)

Now me snotter's on the wane" — ie., the wick. ProudPrimate (talk) 20:35, 24 March 2016 (UTC)

Notability

The article lists notable people. The world is full of fine people, who may be on auspicious web sites.

However, until they have a WP article mentioning them, they aren't considered by WP to be notable.

Please read Wikipedia:Write the article first. So, I have removed a few people who fail this criterion.

Those removed include:

• Dale Snodgrass, F14 Fighter Pilot, https://airandspace.si.edu/multimedia-gallery/web12006-2011640jpg
• Donald J Snodgrass, (1940-), Retired US Navy Captain, http://k4qky.com/
• Vera Snodgrass, grade one teacher in the Canadian comic strip The Mice Squad
