Vandalism

Someone obviously vandalized the opening paragraph of the article, but I'm not sure how it should be reverted. --HunterZ 00:36, 26 May 2006 (UTC)

I've made an attempt at reverting the article. I belive that everything following the version to which I reverted is vandalism; the edit to which I reverted may also be vandalism but I'm not sure. --HunterZ 00:54, 26 May 2006 (UTC)

Opening line

I have the impression it's closer to "mammal" than "animal", and doesn't usually apply to e.g. birds or fish...

at least the fools finally fixed the link for the beast from the show angel

I have heard fishermen call their catch a "giant beast" though I would agree that a bird may not be a beast. It seems to be a word that can be associated with any living thing, and inanimite objects brought to life by the human imagination, such as boats cars or plains.

I've seen it applied to dinosaurs, large reptiles, and all manner of intimidating mythical creatures. --HunterZ 21:32, 21 June 2006 (UTC)

Slang Term

The word "beast" is often used to describe someone who is extremely skilled at something. For example, you could say, "Gustauv is a beast at soccer." It can also be used as a verb, similar to "bested". "I beasted John in baseball."

Battlestar Pegasus

"The Beast" is an established nickname for the Pegasus used in the re-imagined version of Battlestar Galactica. Modified the article to that effect. 86.134.103.196 (talk) 22:42, 24 May 2008 (UTC)

New disambiguation page for The Beast

The list of articles on this disambiguation page was getting rather long, so I've removed the redirect from The Beast to Beast and created a separate disambiguation page for The Beast. I have also catagorised the entries and added links to one-another under the "See also" sections on each page. I'm also going to check all articles currently listed on The Beast to make sure any soft redirects that may be on those pages point back to The Beast and not Beast.

According to the Stanberry definition, Beast is also/ Mainly a synonym for White People. The term's popularity arose during the early Civil Rights Movement, in Which Nation Of Islam Leaders and many other prominent outspoken Black leaders, used the term White Beast, Or simply Beast in describing any vicious or evil white person. Another pleasant word that came along side that was The Devil. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.210.1.132 (talk) 12:36, 10 March 2010 (UTC)

Multiple computer related entries

Perhaps they should be grouped in a Computer section? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.108.112.157 (talk) 19:12, 17 May 2011 (UTC)

Section related to the holy Bible

Despite the article's name The Beast (Revelation), the Book of Revelation cites two beasts. Therefore, it can be renamed Beast (Revelation) or, at least, it couuld have redirect pointing to it.

The disambiguation page titled The Beast is at the end of the article and, ss it is now, the title is explicitly chosen not be visible in a so highly intensive web traffic mover (and collector) like any WP disambiguation page appears to be.

P.S.:

I apologize for some typos now resulting the object which are are probably due to a Microsoft Edge bug needing to be fixed.
