Woah! In the article it says "The authority of the SWA was undermined." That is a subjective statement and definitly not belonging on Wikipedia!

• (Much later) I removed a similar wording. These are strong statements, and they are unlikely to represent something that is universally agreed. Would the SWA agree? Perhaps not. Therefore the statements are inherently point-of-view. If they appear, it must be clear who said this (e.g. a newspaper), with a full reference so it can be confirmed.

[edit] Iseq template

I've added the Iseq listing to the main body of text but I can't figure out how to do the template part! Everytime 03:57, 21 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Diageo Brands Page

I think that the separate Diageo Brands page that exists should be merged into this page. In fact there already is a list of brands here on this page, and we may just need to delete the Diageo Brand page all together. In addition there is a Diageo Brand category now.Ender qa 19:20, 6 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Dia (Latin for 'day')

'Dia' is not Latin for 'day' - I would remove it, but I don't know any Greek, so have no idea if there is any truth in the second part of the statement. Can anyone else shed some light on this? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 195.92.40.49 (talk) 15:49, 25 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] George Bull Link

I think the link from George Bull is to an article on a 17th century Bishop of the same name. I don't think this is correct but I don't want to edit it as I'm no expert on the subject. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.17.255.24 (talk) 14:48, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
