Ribbons

[edit]

(moved from WP:ERRORS) - in the Awards & Decorations section, the pictures of the ribbons do not correlate with the written links. The two in question are bottom row 2nd and 3rd. Either the pictures need to be swapped or the written links need to be swapped. Kiltpin (talk) 00:16, 16 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Fixed. —Ed!(talk) 00:55, 16 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Math problem

[edit]

2+1+1=4, not 5. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.231.236.158 (talk) 05:10, 16 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The following sentences establish the fifth kill. —Ed!(talk) 21:55, 17 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
