 * Symbol question.svg Very nicely done and impressive work, but a large number of the entries in the list do not have references. Each entry needs to be referenced, or at least each section referenced with a note that the entire section is referenced to X source, in order to be eligible for DYK. (I'd also suggest reformatting the notes/references/bibliography section along the lines of that in this page so that they're easier to read.) - The Bushranger One ping only 21:59, 11 November 2011 (UTC)
