[edit] Old: Spam removed.

Hello-o! Anybody home?! There's a spam sentence in the first paragraph, but when I go to edit it out, it's mysteriously not there.

It reads... "...It can be easily found through its bright α star, Spica. It's name was recently changed to Whora after john screwed her." (And they were too dumb to spell "Its" right, as well.)

But when I hit "edit this page," it just says... "Lying between Leo to the west and the Libra to the east, it is one of the largest constellations in the sky. It can be easily found through its bright α star, Spica. " ...so there's nothing to delete!

Don't know how this trick might work, but I thought I'd sound the alarm.

[edit] Old: Questions answered.

um yeah i dont believe in this stuff but i wanted to know a few questions about virgo?? is that the whole name or is there more than virgo. And what is its brigtest star. b/c my science teacher expects us to know every thing about our constellation and i cant find any of that information. thanks

[edit] Origin of Virgo

In a by-the-way fashion the Isis article mentions that this constellation didn't exist in ancient Egypt yet. Was it introduced by the late Romans under the influence of Christianity? --P.jasons (talk) 17:28, 29 November 2007 (UTC)
