- Thanks for reviewing this. I've added the omitted citation -- thanks for noticing! I also edited the three citations you mention to provide more standardized descriptions of the sources. However, I'm allergic to citation templates (that's a topic for some other conversation). --Orlady (talk) 19:25, 13 September 2011 (UTC)
