Greater Iran

Is there a source of that info? I have not met anyone from that area that thinks that. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.132.82.223 (talk) 08:24, 5 June 2011 (UTC)

Superstition, second paragraph

Is it just me or does this paragraph make no sense at all? Even aside from references to this "U.S. Werewolf" (an odd way to decribe a creature of European folklore), I just can't figure out exactly what this is meant to say :S 80.229.81.26 (talk) 14:30, 16 November 2009 (UTC)

AARRGH

This talk page is even more painful than the article itself. How about the article follow the consensus view that mentioning a few prominent people with unibrows is enough without assembling trivia sections attempting to find and document every real or imagined unibrow that has ever been. Really, this article is nothing but a dictionary definition coupled with unreferenced OR , since it does not cite a single reliable source. Beeblbrox (talk) 06:55, 5 March 2008 (UTC)

I agree with you! I support your edits! Brianreading (talk) 18:09, 5 March 2008 (UTC)

Merge

please see Talk:Synophrys Beeblbrox (talk) 23:08, 2 May 2008 (UTC)

I have remerged after it was unmerged. Articles are about things, not terms, and having two separate articles is a form of content forkery. — Ƶ§œš¹ [ãːɱ ˈfɹ̠ˤʷɪ̃ə̃nlɪ] 22:43, 5 September 2012 (UTC)

Alistair Darling

Why does he need a citation? Is it not possible just to click on his name and be presented with the synophrytic truth? User:LaFoiblesse 2008-11-09 23:17 (GMT)

Why not use this one from the eyebrows article? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Konferencja_Wikimedia_Polska_2007_-_Holek.jpg —Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.236.26.152 (talk) 09:26, 21 March 2009 (UTC)

I modified the image that was being used to improve it's quality.


What do you guys think? --Joel M. (talk) 19:43, 20 July 2010 (UTC)

I think we need someone with a more epic unibrow. Richard001 (talk) 22:44, 5 September 2011 (UTC)

Does this qualify as more epic? It is a lot higher resolution than the one suggested above. I can try it with different facial expressions or lighting if desired. Also, I will have access to a better camera soon (by 10/16/2012). Feel free to edit the photo for optimal contrast and unibrow viewing and all. The current photo is a nightmare. If no response soon, I will make this one the photo in the meantime.

 
Unibrow Close Up

— Preceding unsigned comment added by Z11o22 (talkcontribs) 20:13, 6 October 2012 (UTC)

Ok, well now we have all the pictures up. The Davis one still weak but no better close ups on commons, unless somewhat wants to crop one down or find a non-copyright image somewhere else on the internet.

Grammar used in this article

Good lord, it's almost like children wrote this article. I just cleaned up the Popular Culture section a bit (forgot to sign in beforehand), and it honestly was a train wreck. Looking around at the revision history, it seems that the contributers thus far have only cleaned up minor punctuation mistakes. Not a complete overhaul like mine. Go take a look, and tell me that it's not better now ^_^ Breakingspell (talk) 05:41, 13 June 2011 (UTC)

I cleaned it up again. 67.100.127.24 (talk) 11:38, 26 March 2012 (UTC)

Well-known Character

The German article mentions Bert from Sesamestreet as a well-known Character with a Unibrow. My English ist not good enough to put this into this article or to discuss if this information is worth to be part of the article. Jan Tietje (talk) 15:48, 26 December 2013 (UTC)

Unibrows are also frowned upon in India

It is considered not in good taste for women to have excess hare in strange places of the face in India and the unibrow is part of that.

You can google the actress Kajol and her unibrow and see how much fun is being poked at her for it on a regular basis. So it is not a western vs. non-western thing.

This is in reference to the following statement: In Asian countries like India, Nepal, Korea and Bangladesh (etc.) uni-brows are considered to be an "feature of culture". — Preceding unsigned comment added by 209.48.78.34 (talk) 13:41, 7 January 2014 (UTC)

Citation 7

I don't get how citation 7 is related to this topic at all. Shouldn't it be removed?
