Untitled[edit]

Hello! Can anyone explain a foreigner what "rank dispute" and "dispute over rank" are? Is it some formal notion or procedure? Verdi (talk) 16:32, 18 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Bibliography[edit]

Why the non-standard use of the citation style 1 templates? Specifically, why have you moved the links to these items from |url= to separate external links outside of the {{cite whatever}} templates?

Your use of boldface for author last names seems to be contrary to MOS:BOLD and to common bibliographic-list practice.

Similarly, the <br /> in |publisher= is not in keeping with common practice.

Also, read WP:BULLETLIST.
