Trivial Feuds

Im suggesting removing the section on Rap and Wrestling Feuds out since they already has an article to itself. Maybe moving it to the "Related articles" section, or taking it out all together. I believe highlighting these somewhat trivial rivlaries is unrelated to the article on "Feud" itself and is there more so for entertainment value rather than informational value.

Feud vs. Blood Revenge

There is a difference between a feud/vendetta and blood revenge which is mentioned several times in the article. A feud is an on going fight between two groups or people. Blood revenge is ended by one murder back in response. It can then become a blood feud, but it is not the same to begin with.

I think the article should give some insight into the modern perception of the word. To most people "vendetta" is more akin to "a strong grudge being held, particularly from one group or person to another", that is to say a person can have a vendetta against someone who has no ill will towards them or doesn't even no they exist.

IPA?

The IPA transcription at the beginning of the article is just wrong. For example, IPA [y] represents the close front rounded vowel, which as far as I know does not occur in English. I would suggest removing the transcription from the article completely as "feud" is a relatively well-known word. --Lesouris 14:28, 1 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
