[edit] Portrait on your article
Modesty? Well, that's admirable, but I still think it looks better the other way! Perhaps we can move the other picture to where the appropriate section is in the article. Retarius | Talk 07:35, 29 April 2008 (UTC)
[edit] IP editing to Button article and accusation of bias
Someone has accused us of biased editing in the above article. I won't cop it from a person who doesn't even sign their post or offer evidence. I've reverted it. Retarius | Talk 04:59, 26 May 2008 (UTC)
