Why is this disambiguated? Surely it's by far the most common use of the term "Round Table"? Proteus (Talk) 17:41, 28 Nov 2004 (UTC)

My thoughts exactly. Kuralyov 02:08, 1 Dec 2004 (UTC)

It may be the most common use, but it's not the only one. If you're writing about some current political event, and include a sentence such as "Round table talks were held in order to end the conflict", then you wouldn't like it to link to the Round Table at Camelot, would you? Also not that the Round Table redirects here (this should make wikifying and disambiguating easier). – Kpalion (talk) 20:31, 31 Jan 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Garbled Sentence

A sentence in the second section, "In Aragon they were held as early as 1269 in Valencia to as late as 1291 in Catalayud in 1291" is hopelessly garbled. J S Ayer 05:01, 19 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image

Perhaps this image could be used to illustrate the article. Kpalion 23:10, 5 January 2007 (UTC)

Done. Thanks!--Cúchullain t/c 23:57, 5 January 2007 (UTC)
Is the caption for that correct, though? 13th century? because it has a Tudor rose painted in the middle, and that symbol didn't exist until Henry VII's time, the 15th century, right?71.172.180.52 03:40, 10 February 2007 (UTC)
Good catch. The table itself dates to the 13th century, but it was repainted during the Tudor period.--Cúchullain t/c 06:34, 10 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Unverified statement, possibly a joke?

"Built by Sir Cumference, " with a link to circumference. Seriously, guys? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.145.128.30 (talk) 03:34, 10 January 2008 (UTC)

Well there is a children's book involving circles called like "Sir Cumference and the Round Table or something" Its about math and stuff, deserved to be removed :P 12.175.211.37 (talk) 02:10, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
