:::::::::JArneal, you're ignoring the point I already made, which is that they '''were''' accepted to be true, by Andy and the dozens of editors who have edited it in the half year it's existed. Ferno and you seem to be the only ones who suddenly have a craving to fact-tag the whole article and the more you insist to the contrary, the more it looks like [[deliberate ignorance]]. -[[User:Foxtrot|Foxtrot]] 04:25, 21 November 2008 (EST)

If you spend more time justifying the placement of a fact tag than you spend on research, that is a great waste of effort. I thought this argument was settled earlier in this month, when I blocked someone for fact-tagging and then he outright refused to do any research.
