Problem with the Gallery HTML tag
The Gallery HTML tag does not seem to work. Just have a look at the 'Images of Mauritius' section... the box are shown but not the image... Can someone investigate the reason for why the images fail to be shown?
History
QUOTE: "Stefans father is currently the richest man in Mauririus, and drives an Audi TT. He once had a photo of himself taken with Miss India, in front of his very impressive television."
Why does this need to be in this article? Can someone with a better knowledge of this article, remove or provide a reference related to the importance of this article?

To Mwanner
I find it rather annoying to the link to ThisisMauritius be treated as SPAM, when it has been here long before other links such as the very amateurish Cuisine of Mauritius website. This seems to be a personal vendetta by Mwanner, who can tolerate personal websites such as the travel blogs but is unable to allow a link to a fully functional Mauritian website encouraging the people of Mauritius to maintain a collection of articles, via which they can voice their views and opinions. This isn't my personal website by the way, I'm just a volunteer editor on it - and it's revolting that for a site that appreciates communal effort like Wikipedia, people like Mwanner make sure such spirit is dampened down within other sites by negating its proliferation.
Flag and coat of arms
I viewed the Mauritius page at 12:04 p.m. U.S. Eastern Daylight Time on Oct. 21. The flag and coat of arms appear to be those of Turkey. Could someone please correct this? Thanks.
