The term "Gubernatorial" redirects here. Also, many words that I would expect to be written as "government" are written using an alternative spelling.
I've noticed this in other articles too. Is this some kind of vandalism?
I wound up here while looking for a mechanical governor I would have created a disambig page, but there are way too many links to here to edit manually. Is there an easier way to update all those pages? Spalding 13:12, Oct 16, 2004 (UTC)
The word 'governor' rising from the Greek verb meaning 'steer' now makes sense of 'ruler' or 'device giving automatic control.' I hope my new edit to the Etymology section could help understand 'governor' whether mechanical or political or otherwise. --Ishiakkum 04:42, 13 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]
"See also Civilian Administrator of Iraq" is inappropriate, coming after a list of governors of US states and territories, unless expanded to cover post-war American administrators in nations such as Germany or Japan. Iraq is not, regardless of what one might think about motives for the war, an American state, colony, territory, or possession.
Why do some British people casually refer to each other as "governor"? 142.161.203.78 7 July 2005 04:17 (UTC)
