Astrological sign for graphic designers edit

Some artists/designers referring to this Wikipedia page might still find it difficult to reproduce the astrological signs in high-resolution details. I've found an easy way. Would someone familiar with this article please include this info in the article (in the proper place and style)?

To produce the 12 signs in a Windows environment, input "^_`abcdefghi" and apply the "Wingdings" font. Voila, you can enlarge to say 50 point font, and output your graphic file to EPS/PNG/JPG format for very fine graphic details.

I will try to demonstrate it here:

^_`abcdefghi.

Hi team,

This morning, I read a page in our encyclopedia about the astrological signs (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Astrological_sign#References) and when I reached the end of the page in the references section, I saw a thing that was not relevant and not good in our pages (in my point of view). In the fourth point, we had a link on the keyword " Signs and Constellations" and it's broken. So please replace this for a better experience also I have a suggestion for a good and informative page (https://www.astroyogi.com/zodiac-signs)

No. Wikipedia is not a platform for the promotion of random astrological websites. AndyTheGrump (talk) 07:54, 8 March 2024 (UTC)Reply

I think this new scientific study could be added to this page. Please someone add it to the pargaraph starting with "Astrology is a pseudoscience....".

i suggest this:

Astrology is a pseudoscience.[3] Scientific investigations of the theoretical[4] basis and experimental verification of claims[5] have shown it to have no scientific validity or explanatory power. A scientific study, for example, found that zodiac signs are no better than random numbers in predicting life outcomes (citation)"

  Not done for now. This citation might be a better fit at Astrology. This article is mostly about the astrological signs themselves. Askarion 17:57, 5 June 2024 (UTC)Reply

I believe the Gemini dates (start date specifically) is incorrect, I am 99.9% sure and I only know this because my mom and I are both Gemini and her birthday is May 21st.

The line should be changed FROM: Gemini The Twins ♊︎ 22 May 21 June

TO: Gemini The Twins ♊︎ 21 May 21 June Sirena.blanch (talk) 08:16, 6 June 2024 (UTC)Reply

  Not done: Note the qualifiers: "approximate dates", "the start date of all signs can change slightly from year to year". Hyphenation Expert (talk) 09:40, 6 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
