# Not every single person in the world is familiar with Latin. I love "Scientia potestas est. Make Wikipedia more powerful." but if we non-English people translated the latter part, why not the former part too? It'll make more sense to speak in a same simple tone. We have not to be a snob // Reservations: our Latin projects may assume this kind, but better the whole banner in Latin, not only the former part. --[[User:Aphaia|Aphaia]] 09:03, 28 September 2010 (UTC)

:*Sorry, that's my fault. I tried to translate as much as I could, but that turned out to be only the first part. I know I should have studied my Latin more. ;) [[User:TeleComNasSprVen|<font color="red">:| TelCo</font>]][[User talk:TeleComNasSprVen|<font color="green">NaSp</font>]][[Special:Contributions/TeleComNasSprVen|<font face="Showcard Gothic" color="blue">Ve :|</font>]] 09:21, 28 September 2010 (UTC)

*Would be interesting to test. But no core values/messages, just appeal to competitiveness... [[User:Renata3|Renata3]] 03:13, 15 September 2010 (UTC)

*Heh, I like... Although, like Ocaasi said, how accurate would the "You know you can beat that, [City]" part be? If it got my city wrong, I think I would just be a little confused. And then again, if it got it right, I might be a little creeped out. [[User:GorillaWarfare|GorillaWarfare]] 00:22, 17 October 2010 (UTC)
