The "elephas maximus maximus" should actually have brackets on either sides of it, but I cannot figure out how to do that while still having it be an internal link. If anyone knows how, please do so. Turnstep

Done. Not sure if my use of "nowiki" tags was appropriate, but it works. Isoxyl 20:59, 26 September 2005 (UTC)

[edit] pronunciation

The page says: FASTA is pronounced "FAST-Aye"

That leads to the question of "how do I pronounce Aye"?

It is most often pronounced like 'eye' as in the naval expression Aye-Aye but could I suppose sound like the capital letter A! Neither of which are how fasta is pronounced around here.—Preceding unsigned comment added by 131.111.85.79 (talkcontribs) 21:30, 1 November 2006

Its probably pronounced as "A", because its the sucessor to "FAST-P" and "FAST-N" --hydkat 11:31, 4 December 2006 (UTC)
Our researchers say either FAST-A (long A) or FASTA (rhymes with shasta, for anyone who remembers) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 137.110.118.175 (talk) 00:25, 10 January 2008 (UTC)
