Usually?

[edit]

Until recently, the page started by saying that Libra usually referred to either the astronomical constellation or an old Roman measure of weight. Now it just lists all the possibilities with no statement of preference. It seems to me that in the vast majority of cases it actually does refer to the constellation, not the Roman weight, and sad to say probably even more often to the astrological sign. Should we say that? Am I just stuck in a particular bubble? I've never heard of any of the manga or comic characters, but I'm guessing an awful lot of people will be quite passionate about them.

That introduction has not been there much. It was added 15:11, 7 March 2011‎ and removed 05:22, 16 April 2011 (about a month and a half). It was then readded 12:21, 14 March 2017 and removed 13:41, 28 March 2017‎ (by me after 2 weeks). (I didn't look at every version but a random look, there might be other versions also.) The page has been a DAB for ~10.5 years and that intro has been there for 2 months of that time. If someone thinks it is important we can discuss it and determine if it should be readded. ~ GB fan 14:55, 28 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
