[edit] aresnal fc

i'm getting rid of most of the bit about arsenal football clubJoevsimp 11:40, 3 August 2007 (UTC)

Any ideas about the sentence "Arsenal FC are also based in the city"? The placement makes it look like they're saying that Arsenal are from Venice, which is probably not true. I am removing it for the moment. Inhumandecency (talk) 02:19, 3 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Etymology

This page says "The word is of Arabic origin, being a corruption of daras-sina'ah, house of trade or manufacture...", but the Venetian Arsenal page says "The name probably comes from Arabic Dar al Sina’a ('Dockyard')...". I understand the etymology may be in dispute, but can we possibly get a correct translation of the Arabic? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Elmo iscariot (talk • contribs) 15:44, 14 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Arsenal F.C/Arsenal

Shouldn't Arsenal F.C be the page that comes up when 'Arsenal' is searched for? I'm sure that is what most people typing that in are looking for, no offence to fans of military arsenals. It would seem to make more practical sense. If not then the initial page should at least be to the disambiguation. Lord Cornwallis (talk) 02:21, 10 May 2008 (UTC)
