Talk:Crux

What about the "pointers"? (i.e. the two stars that point towards Crux that you use to estimate which direction is south) -- SJK

flags

There are several countries which have the Southern Cross on their flags, such as New Zealand and Australia. Prehaps a reference to that could be made? --Gregstephens 08:12, 25 Feb 2005 (UTC)

I agree. Maybe I'll add something about that this weekend or so. JYolkowski 23:34, 25 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Move to "Southern Cross"

I think we should move Southern Cross to Southern Cross (disambiguation) and move Crux to Southern Cross. If there are no objections in a week I will do it myself.

My rationale is that it is in keeping with English Wikipedia policy to use the common English name as the name of the article. Southern Cross is already a disambiguation page, so there is no need to change any content (except put a link to the disambiguation page at the top of the new Southern Cross page). Are there any objections?

Just one: all other constellations are in Latin, so it's not really in keeping with Wikipedia usage. kwami 06:57, 2005 Jun 25 (UTC)

I object as well. ~~~~ 08:56, 25 Jun 2005 (UTC)
