Would it not make sense to combine this page with ASA? three links could easily be incorporated into the ASA disambiguation page. Or move ASA to here, either would work.User:70.49.36.110 23:23, 20 Apr 2005 (UTC)
Previous Talk moved to User talk:Asa Winstanley.

You have a small problem coming your way, Asa, and the problem is your name. You are probably aware of the pre-Christian derivation of it; I have an article coming up for the :Norse Mythology block concerning the User:Asa: I fear it directs to your namespace. I'll note this with Larry. User:sjc

OK, what do you and Larry sugest I do? I don't mind changing my user name to Asa Winstaley (full name) and removing my stuff from :Asa, moving to User:Asa Winstanley. I would prefer this to :Wikipedians/Asa. Also, i would like to keep a link to User:Asa Winstanley on User:Asa so that all the links to my name in histories and Recent Changes are not totally broken. Hows that? Will wait for you and/or Larry to reply b4 acting on this. cheers.
(p.s. My name is pre-Christian - Hebrew! Asa was also a king in the OT, so maybe i should have thought of that to before i claimed thee space for myself! ah well live and learn) --User:Asa
Yeah, I spotted that as well. But then my viewpoint is post-Christian... :-) User:sjc

after futher investigation: seems it was User:The Cunctator who put my name as a sub page of :Wikipedians, thou i assumed for some reason it was you. Also seems he is the only one (that i can find) that uses this particular scheme. is this an upcoming standard or something? I tend not to keep up with :Wikipedia policy... I would ''prefer'' User:Asa Winstanley.
One more thing: Asa is not just my Wiki name its my real name :) -- User:Asa
:No, it's not an upcoming standard. User:Asa Winstanley is all yours. :) --User:Stephen Gilbert

The following has been moved here from Talk:Ase (Ase redirects to Asa):
Removed: Ase , plural Asen, horses have been ancient pre-christian German revered beings (gods, spirits or deities). The Angle Saxon form is ''assa'', ''assen'', M.E. ''asse'', Celtic ''assan'', Latin ''asinus'' meaning donkey (small horse).
Assaran is an Old Prussian language word meaning watering hole for horses, or lake. It is derived fromm ''assa'' and water spirit Ran.
The nordic version of the German Ase is Aesir.

Aesir is the name of the family of gods headed by Odin. What exactly do they have to do with horses? http://www.geocities.com/cas111jd/norse/norse_arv_austri.htm gives ase as an Old German form of "god" from Proto-IndoEuropean "aes" meaning light. User:Rmhermen 13:06 Aug 22, 2002 (PDT)

Should we really have links to Wikipedians at the bottom of articles? User:Cferrero 18:57 Mar 3, 2003 (UTC)
