Strange
[edit]This is a very strange page... =) I was looking for how to insert a {cleanup} tag to pages and I'm redirected to here. I'm deleting the 'cleanup' redirect because it doesn't seem to apply to the page. Dept of Alchemy 20:42, 26 October 2006 (UTC)
- I have to admit...this page is really quite amusing as it stands now. Sort of an instructional piece based on the assumption that someone reading might not have come across the concept. --Kukini 04:42, 13 February 2007 (UTC)
Cleanliness is next to Godliness
[edit]I wish some one would add a paragraph about this on the article. I found a reference in http://www.phrases.org.uk/bulletin_board/5/messages/1209.html but since English is not my main language I feel someone else may be better for the task. Itzcuauhtli (talk) 14:24, 30 June 2008 (UTC)
We probably need to be in contact with Cleaning Specialist Joe Atkins (of akcess) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Atcess (talk • contribs) 07:14, 3 September 2010 (UTC)
Bad redirect
[edit]Removing redirect from Squalidness to here, as it's rather silly... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 159.53.78.141 (talk) 14:26, 2 July 2009 (UTC)
Gulp
[edit]Hard to know where to start on this. There are abundant sources that deal with the cultural concept of "cleanliness", as any Google Books search with reasonable parameters will indicate. Would there be objections if I gutted this to the intro and the section on Industry? The rest is mostly how-to, and a desire to impose a particular set of criteria for cleanliness, all having to do with hygiene and housekeeping, and not the subject of "cleanliness". The article could benefit immensely from globalizing, and from adding a section on the history of cleanliness, which (I learned this morning looking for sources to improve the intro) is a far more fascinating topic than one might imagine.

- Since I've gotten no response, 'm going to proceed with edits intended to narrow the scope of the article to "cleanliness," rather than "hygiene" or "housekeeping". Am mainly deleting the "how-to" sections for now. Cynwolfe (talk) 19:36, 17 October 2011 (UTC)
"Clenliness"
[edit]I've come across that spelling in quite a few newspaper articles, books etc. Is it a real word? Maybe some simplified form? Or were all the writers just bad at orthography? If it's a real alternative spelling (or considered common enough a mistake), can somebody add a redirect from there to here? --77.190.30.96 (talk) 19:08, 14 December 2016 (UTC)

Orphaned references in Cleanliness
[edit]I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Cleanliness's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.
Reference named "Ferguson2013":
- From Hygiene in Christianity: Ferguson, Everett (2013). Encyclopedia of Early Christianity: Second Edition. Routledge. p. 6. ISBN 978-1-136-61158-2.
- From Lavabo: Ferguson, Everett (8 October 2013). Encyclopedia of Early Christianity: Second Edition. Routledge. p. 6. ISBN 978-1-136-61158-2.
I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. Feel free to remove this comment after fixing the refs. AnomieBOT⚡ 10:04, 13 July 2023 (UTC)
