Getas?
editThey're quite similar to geta, no? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.72.21.221 (talk • contribs) 22:09, 5 April 2007
- Not really; you wear them over your normal shoes. But geta were often described as pattens by earlier Westerners in Japan & elsewhere in Asia. Johnbod 02:15, 6 April 2007 (UTC)

Kindly restore them to the article only once they're actually being used to source some of its information. Otherwise, we create the image of a well-sourced article and well-curated list where that may very much not be the case. (If adding back to the article as a #Further reading section... well, those are generally bad ideas but kindly add a note about what their particular value to the reader is.) — LlywelynII 01:34, 29 June 2023 (UTC)
- Since you haven't written any of the article until today (I think), you don't know what sources were used! Much of this is very old, before people did much in-line citing. I will let your WP:CITEVAR violations go, but your personal whims on what to call ref sections are too much - "bibliography" is always a bad idea. Johnbod (talk) 03:29, 29 June 2023 (UTC)
