The references

[edit]

I think more web-based references need to be added, if possible, but I know the article's only just been moved into the main space. Chevymontecarlo 19:12, 12 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

wikifying

I removed these references while wikifying the page. They might be useful later though. --Kerowyn Leave a note 17:55, 6 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
