Damn, how was there not a gauze page before now? There's already a big one on the band muslimgauze (not that that's relevant). Bobby P. Smith Sr. Jr. 07:55, 13 March 2006 (UTC)Reply

Every now and then I'll find one of these, like unguent, grist, brat... I guess everyone was busy making episode guides for their favorite sci-fi show... Jokestress 08:15, 13 March 2006 (UTC)Reply
All too true. Someday I should just skip around in the dictionary for words that can be turned into actual non-wiktionary articles but probably haven't been. Bobby P. Smith Sr. Jr. 08:24, 13 March 2006 (UTC)Reply

What is it? Seems to have to do with wound dressings? --Cancun771 (talk) 12:52, 20 February 2008 (UTC)Reply

Biased edit edit

This edit ignores several sources that do in fact attribute the etymology of Gauze to Gaza, that explicitly mention its key role in disseminating the fabric from the port of Gaza (which is why in Spanish it is Gasa). I invite anyone to peruse the literature. It is not one man's opinion . Plus, the edit detailed high quality sources explaining just that. It should be undone. 2A10:8012:15:2C4:B162:4C99:6E6C:7241 (talk) 19:59, 19 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
