 * Delete per above. I wanted to make the additional comment regarding the "privately published manuscripts" that are cited as references. In my opinion, reference to these is more or less equivalent to original research.  This is because "privately published" is extremely vague. The "manuscript" could range from an ancient treatise on the art that records all members, techniques, and deeds with encyclopedic precision and has been passed down from headmaster to headmaster for 500 years, to notes on the back of a napkin that the "founder" passed around to his buddies at the pub last night. As such, until it becomes "publicly published", it can't really be considered "reliable" or "verifiable" for anyone's purposes here. Bradford44 17:33, 4 November 2007 (UTC)
