Extremes of the hontrucides and of the menacmes

My commentary of an archaist, of a neologist and of a Parnassianist: The two puberties (pubescences) are called "sintremal" (masculine) and "peringrala" (feminine).

The two bassades (planicies) are called "honcadime" (masculine) and "menarche" (feminine).

The two sierras are called "hontrucide" (masculine) and "menacme" (feminine).

The two climacters are called "opsendal" (masculine) and "antrebula" (feminine).

The two planalts (plateaus) are called "hongresame" (masculine) and "menopause" (feminine).

These biological phases occur complementarily in both sexes.

The Latin translations of these words are "sintremalus" ("sintremali"), "peringrala" ("peringralae"), "honcadimus" ("honcadimi"), "menarcha" ("menarchae"), "hontrucide" ("hontrucidis"), "menacme" ("menacmis"), "opsendalus" ("opsendali"), "antrebula" ("antrebulae"), "hongresamus" ("hongresami") and "menopausa" ("menopausae").

Should the images of naked children be taken down?

This edit request has been answered. Set the |answered= or |ans= parameter to no to reactivate your request.

I think so but it’s against the rules maybe I’m not sure. What do u guys think? The changes I would like are that the images of naked children (real photos not a diagram) be removed or replaced by another image. OrangeLolipopSnail (talk) 11:44, 10 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Why? This request seems rather prudish. - Roxy the dog 11:48, 10 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

bc other ppl want it on this talk page and the images could be a diagram or smth like that instead OrangeLolipopSnail (talk) 11:55, 10 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I see no justification to remove them. - Roxy the dog 12:04, 10 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Ok OrangeLolipopSnail (talk) 12:10, 10 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Not done for now: please establish a consensus for this alteration before using the {{Edit semi-protected}} template. DMacks (talk) 12:28, 10 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I’m not getting much info currently it is 3/5 ppl want this change how many ppl/percent do u need I thought a majority was enough to make a request? Or is it some random amount that is chosen bc that’s what it seems like to me? Or am I missing something and I’m being stupid? Sorry if I’m being rude OrangeLolipopSnail (talk) 12:35, 10 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

WP:CONSENSUS is the usual standard, and strength of position based on policies and guidelines, not a vote. I'm not taking a position on the content, just identifying the process to use to change it. DMacks (talk) 12:37, 10 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
