Somebody thinks something is wrong with this page, but can't be bothered to fix it, or explain what. They like littering the place up with useless tags and probably think they are doing something useful. Unfortunately, no one can deal with it, as nobody knows what the problem, if any, might be.(August 2010)
More Capital Letters Than Wikipedia Guidelines Allow.
Accuracy and correctly cited references, without which, this is no more than a blog.
I Dislike
Wikipedia keeping misspelt articles as redirects, which leads to more uses of the same misspelling, as editors copy the spelling in a green link.
Contact Me:- Please leave a message on my Talk Page If you e-mail me, I will probably reply on your talk page, or the article talk page, as most discussions should be open and on the record. I have had problems with e-mails not being delivered, so please leave a message at User talk:Arjayay if I have not replied within 48 hours.
