Welcome to the Wikipedia Reference Desk Archives

Contents
This is an archive where you can browse all of the old questions and answers from the reference desk. Not all questions have been archived (nonsense and questions not meant for the reference desk have not been saved). Some of these pages are very large and may crash even high-end computers. We recommend you don't open many windows at the same time. If your question has been archived but you feel that it hasn't been adequately answered, copy and paste the archived discussion as a new question.
Searching the archives
The best way to search the archives is probably to use a search engine, such as Google by using this search string. You can also browse manually by clicking on the links below.
For archivers
This archive is designed to be updated by a bot. If you notice any problems, please leave a note on the reference desk talk page.
