Male and Female columns

I think you ought to put a header on each column to this affect. *I* didn't notice it! And *THESE* days, with all the weird new names for ALL sexes, I think it is absolutely necessary to make this clear. Hayford Peirce (talk) 20:44, 10 August 2020 (UTC)

OK done. I didn't think it was necessary at first; then the list started to get out of hand... John Stephenson (talk) 14:32, 11 August 2020 (UTC)

May I simplify the instructions for putting in the definitions of Actors? (I find it IMPOSSIBLE to put line breaks in here!)

  • "(Delete this note, including the enclosing quotation marks, after reading.)
  • 1. In the space above, paste everything *between* the 'nowiki' tags, i.e. from '<noinc...': <noinclude>{{Subpages}}</noinclude>
  • 2. Write the definition here (maximum one sentence of 150 characters, ignoring formatting characters). Don't include the term defined in the definition itself, and start the text with a capital letter. 10-30 words are usually enough.

    • I read that over for a LONG time, and it baffled me. Can I change it to:
    • "(Delete this note, including the enclosing quotation marks, after reading.)"
    • 1. In the space above write the definition (maximum one sentence of 150 characters, ignoring formatting characters). Don't include the term defined in the definition itself, and start the text with a capital letter. 5 - 15 words are usually enough.
