[edit] Something Useful

something that would be useful to include in this article would be a table of date codes, or something similar. I found a website which lists these; but I do not know haw to make tables, so I would apreciate it if someone else could do it for me and tell me how to make tables please

[edit] dictionary quote

Anyone else think this looks a bit sloppy?

Merriam-Webster also defines the metaphorical use of hallmark as: "a distinguishing characteristic, trait, or feature <the dramatic flourishes which are the hallmark of the trial lawyer — Marion K. Sanders>".

For one thing, I don't think people using 'hallmark' in this sense are using markings on metal objects as a metaphor- They're just using the term in another, also well-established sense. For another, why quote Webster's dictionary (and Marion Saunders?)--Eloil 20:43, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

Responsibility marks are mentioned but not well-explained nor illustrated. -- Beland 15:28, 24 September 2007 (UTC)
