I'm sorry if you were offended by my remark, but people who confuse market cap with revenue shouldn't be editing financial information. Over the past few weeks I have corrected this error in dozens of articles, so I have a pretty short fuse about it. I have corrected Sprint Nextel's article multiple times, yet people continue to add the market cap. As for the outdated information, I prefer to use audited revenue from the latest annual report. Sprint's last annual report was 2004. If you want to use revenue from a more recent unaudited earnings release that's fine, as long as you cite the source. Rhobite 22:42, 10 March 2006 (UTC)

Wikiprojects
I noticed you've been editing some ancient battle articles. Have you considered joining the Military history WikiProject, especially the Classical warfare task force? We can always use more writers :) - Vedexent 01:02, 12 March 2006 (UTC)

Third Serville War

 * There may have been 80,000 troops total - however, there were only 12 thousand whose status is not known: the 10,000 under Cassius, and the 2,000 mentioned in the second praetorian armies. The rest are known to be in legions.
 * According to Appian, there were 4 thousand troops decimated by Crassus. The alternate version of the histroy says 50 were decimated in one of cohorts under Mummius. It's not 50 to 4,000 it is 50 or 4,000.

If you have primary sources you can quote to back you alterations, feel free to bring them to my attention. The article I wrote, including the figures, and events is based on the accounts of Livy, Appian, Florus, and Plutarch. - Vedexent 03:47, 16 March 2006 (UTC)
