Editing and Format

There have been significant additions to this article, but they were not written into the narrative. I rearranged the article to keep the narative together, but I did not significantly edit to make it read better. Some of it is redundant. Also, many links were added, but they were not consistant with the format on the page. I've formatted some of them, but I did not complete. I'll be away from the computer until next week, so I might not get back to it for some time. Someone who is a more experienced Wikian may want to make sure we are in the proper format as well. I hope that the extensive documentation that has been added to this article helps establish "noteriety." Please excuse the format until it can be worked through.

Try to make the article format look more like David Zancai. -- Jreferee ^(Talk) 06:41, 17 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
