→This is getting a little frustrating
::I agree with HelpJazz on this. In its current state it looks terrible. TOC is right at the top, which is best avoided, the section header is overly long, which isn't very reader-friendly, & it uses the largest size of header, which overlaps with the underline & makes it look like a strikethrough. Maybe some header is needed for the list section of the article, but this isn't a good way of doing it. [[User:Sideways|Sideways]] 17:16, 16 November 2008 (EST)

:::So we should make it look ugly because it's a "list"? That doesn't make any sense. And who says it's a list and not an article ''with'' a list?
:::You created it? First of all, I was also "among those in on the origins of the article" (Edit number 6). Second of all, so what? This is a community effort, and anyone who creates an article does so with the mind that other editors will edit it.
:::The fact is, this just looks ugly, and it doesn't match any of the other articles. If we want to have hodge-podge formatting then sure, just go ahead and delete the MoS. But then every editor gets to decide how they randomly format, not just one editor. But think about this: do you think anyone would take Encyclopedia Brittanica seriously if every article was formatted a different way? I rather doubt it.
:::Ed, could you ''please'' comment on this? You have protected the article and now have changed it twice. Could we work together here? [[User:HelpJazz|Help]][[User talk:HelpJazz|Jazz]] 18:32, 16 November 2008 (EST)
