:*You have a valid point here but, again, historical names are clear enough without obscure qualifiers.  Do we need to include a middle initial for Karl Marx to distinguish him from others in history who had that same name???--[[User:Aschlafly|Andy Schlafly]] 15:19, 17 December 2011 (EST)

::*Fine, then say 'action-at-a-distance gravity' in the question. Even so, I'm not sure the word 'discovered' is best applied to a process that involved no new observation, merely the better interpretation of existing observations.
    
::*The article here: http://www.wordorigins.org/index.php/more/581/, attributes 'The First World War' to September 1914 and 'The Great War' to October 1914. An additional problem is that 'The Great War' also used to refer to the Napoleonic Wars. Also, H.G. Wells called the war 'The War That Will End War' in the title of a book of 1914 (not sure which month).
