Amy Winehouse, 2007
She is wearing two bras, is this worth mentioning or explaining ? Xb2u7Zjzc32 (talk) 02:32, 16 March 2016 (UTC)
External links modified
Hello fellow Wikipedians,
I have just added archive links to one external link on Bra. Please take a moment to review my edit. You may add {{cbignore}}
after the link to keep me from modifying it, if I keep adding bad data, but formatting bugs should be reported instead. Alternatively, you can add {{nobots|deny=InternetArchiveBot}}
to keep me off the page altogether, but should be used as a last resort. I made the following changes:
- Attempted to fix sourcing for http://www.mgh.harvard.edu/children/adolescenthealth/articles/aa_breast_development.aspx

4 v 2
Whereas 4 sentences discuss purpose, only two discuss socialization. Therefore, 'purpose' seems a more appropriate title. Antamajnoon (talk) 22:02, 28 May 2016 (UTC)
- The section is clearly written discussing the socialisation aspect of wearing a bra even when it may actually be unneccessary. I'm not even sure how you've managed to come to the conclusion that the intentions of the sentences are about the purpose when they are litterally talking about how they don't always have one. Also that was a very disputable quantification. Ebonelm (talk) 22:34, 28 May 2016 (UTC)
Moving all articles including "brassiere" in the title?
I just noticed that List of brassiere designs still uses the term – shouldn't it, and other articles using this old-fashioned term, be moved too for consistency? --Florian Blaschke (talk) 18:52, 30 June 2016 (UTC)
Lede images
I'm reverting, per the anon editor. The drawn images are inherently better - better framed, better contrast and outline, bras front-on and centered in the shot, etc, etc. Way more illustrative, in other words. Its not always the case that live photos are inherently better
vs
As you can see from the images above, the drawing clearly show three main styles of bra. The images below do not. All three are underwired, two are the same style, and the center one is really badly fitting in the band. - Alison ❤ 06:26, 12 August 2016 (UTC)
- Drawn images – While having live images makes more sense to me in theory, I have to agree with Alison that at least in this case, the drawn images are much more illustrative. Graham (talk) 06:33, 12 August 2016 (UTC)
- Also - it should be noted that the person who reverted the anon editor (who left a perfectly good rationale, BTW), also happened to be the original uploader of the photographs. Jes' sayin' .... - Alison ❤ 06:42, 12 August 2016 (UTC)
- "I agree with Allison, Graham (and Anon). There's an old discussion that led to consensus on this for these drawings. The illustrations show a variety of styles clearly. The photographs did not.Mattnad (talk) 09:11, 12 August 2016 (UTC)
