[edit] Facts

I decided to remove this section seeing as though the content is merely miscellaneous trivia under the guise of "facts". They very well may be "facts", but the article does not require haphazard lists of unsourced information. Trivia is ordinarily frowned upon. If the editors feel strongly about its introduction, might I suggest working it into the article in a manner as to not create random lists. Wisdom8920:02, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

I'm new at this, so I don't know if this is the correct way to respond, but how can we be able to keep the trivia in the article?? I think they are fun little facts that people might not know. ytsejammer03

ytsejammer, the talk page is used for consensus building and discussion about the content of each particular article. If you wish to make recommendations, dispute content, or propose changes, this is certainly the place to do it. It's always a good idea to move discussions here instead of relying on the comment boxes, or just engaging in incessant reverts to get your point across. With that being said, I agree with you that these tidbits constitute interesting trivia - that really isn't the problem. I'm just concerned about how they're being presented - in a random list. Yes, many articles have them - but the general consensus is that they are mostly unencyclopedic. The best way to solve this would be to find a way to integrate that information into the rest of the article in the appropriate places. If no such place exists, then the article can be edited to accomodate what you wish to add. Wisdom89 22:07, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

Ok I understand. Thanks for the help. The reason I kept reverting it, was because I didn't know how post reason in this discussion page. I'll try to see where I can fit them in. Ytsejammer03 13:43, 4 January 2007 (UTC)
