Question the André Augestad entry. No Google matches. Causeur doesn't translate either; There is exactly one occurrence of the word in wikipedia, so it is easy to guess the meaning from the context, as conversationalist who sparks lively discussion; but there is nothing explicit about the word, currently.

Unknown character defined as "Max or Maximillian Button" keeps spamming. Please stop him and ban IP if he comes back.
While perhaps its importance may be disputed, April 5, 2063 is the date of First Contact in Star Trek. Interesting bits of trivia are some of the best things you find in encyclopediae, and this entry's not exactly stimulating anyway. Just a thought. ;) 68.102.179.135 02:29, 25 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] TV show entry - not significant
I welcome your thoughts on the following. I removed this entry as not significant: "*2001 - Lisa Fowler was revealed as the would be assassin in the EastEnders storyline Who Shot Phil". I do not believe fictional details of plot lines from TV shows is notable for the events section. Any thoughts? Thanks, Hu Gadarn 15:48, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
