[edit] Infamous

Infamous: ill-famed: having an exceedingly bad reputation; "a notorious gangster"; "the tenderloin district was notorious for vice"

It really makes no sense to refer to Japanese artist CARNELIAN as being "infamous". I believe this was a mistake and corrected it.

[edit] illustration

Isn't this illustration really wrong, this is a mineral and the picture is not of the mineral, just a seal impression of a seal made of that mineral.Moheroy 02:53, 6 October 2006 (UTC)

Carnelian is a common gemstone. remember that there is the gemology world out there as well, and this article just as well applies to gems as to minerals. You are looking at the article from ONE POV. SauliH 16:31, 30 January 2007 (UTC)
