Tennis (501 words)
Tennis (occasionally called "lawn tennis" to distinguish it from royal tennis, an obscure indoor game) is a racquet sport played between either two players (singles) or two teams of two players (doubles).
Tennis is played on a 78' x 27' (78' x 36' for doubles) court, which is divided in the middle by a net, such as that each side measures 39' in length.
Players attempt to hit a tennis ball with a tennis racquet such that it bounces in the opposition's side of the court and the opposition is unable to return it.
Talk:List of female movie actors (A-K) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (802 words)
Ya gotta love the fact that we don't have a "List of actresses" because that would be sexist, but we're ok with a "List of female movie actors".
I suggest that we have List of actors and actresses, and then split it up by surname and by nationality, similar to List of people by name and List of people by nationality.
By having separate lists for separate countries, that person would be able to browse lists of the people they were interested in without needing to bias the main list towards any particular nationalities.
