- I have listed it on Wikipedia:Copyright problems. I think all it needs is some rephrasing, though it would probably be appropriate to site Behind the Name as a source, assuming they didn't get it from Wikipedia. —HorsePunchKid→龜 06:49, 8 November 2005 (UTC)
- Rephrased, glossed famous bearers from their Wikipedia articles, removed other languages section as it was a exact copy. Thanks for noticing! JesseW, the juggling janitor 03:40, 21 November 2005 (UTC)
Vanity additions
Removed the following: "# Anthony Seliquini, dispatcher for CMS Mechanical Services out of Melbourne, FL, considered the greatest miracle worker of all time, married to Amanda Seliquini." This has been added a couple of times previously. Please provide citation or outside source. Google provides few hits, certainly none indicating notability. Bastun 13:20, 23 May 2006 (UTC)
66.162.19.82 added Anthony Seliquini back again - reverting. Bastun 10:42, 31 May 2006 (UTC)
Where does the "h" come from
Any information on the origin of the "h" in Anthony? --Macrakis 18:11, 23 February 2007 (UTC)
Pronunciation
Do I pronounce it "Anthony" or "Antony"? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 91.108.127.36 (talk) 17:28, 13 September 2007 (UTC)
- The vast majority of American English names that are spelled "Anthony" are pronounced with the "th" sound, not the "t" sound, in the United States. Keeper | 76 15:08, 12 October 2007 (UTC)
- Depends on where you live. Americans seem mostly to pronounce it Anthony; the British pronounce it Antony. Speaking as a Brit, I wondered how the American pronunciation developed, seeings as the British have never pronounced it that way, and you don't say the h in Thomas, after all. 86.133.240.138 (talk) 16:49, 10 January 2008 (UTC)
