The version by 61.69.12.15 is direct from the Melbourne Knights official website (see [1] [2] and [3]). It's not the right tone for wikipedia even if there was copyright permission (the following two edits were relatively minor). Suggest reverting to Tancred's version.

[edit] Cleanup

Narrative tone needs to go and be replaced with a factual, encyclopedic tone. Wiki formatting standards need to be followed and internal links added. If anyone wants a stab at it, go for it. --Scottie theNerd 19:15, 10 June 2006 (UTC)

I agree. The article carries something of a political tone rather than an encyclopedic one. I would also accuse the article of bias as it states only the positive aspects of the political role of the club and has ignored the widespread allegations of NEO NAZI support that has been reported this summer on Australian Television News. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n5WARjt677M

[edit] Honours cleanup

I cleaned up the honours section because i thought it was a little unwieldly, and also to list the more major, and in my opinion, most relevant achievements rather than every little thing, which if done for every side would go on forever. If however, anyone disagrees with this, they can go and add whatever they feel is important enough to be there. Blackmissionary 01:40, 22 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Knights Stadium (Australia)

As the topic title suggests, i've created an artcile for Knights Stadium (Australia). Take a little caution with linking to it because there is already an article on a stadium with the same name in the US. So add pics, details if you have them, you know the drill.
