While the highlighting I removed was colorful, it did not particularly add to the content of the article and might make reading difficult with some browsers. See Wikipedia:Policies and guidelines: Use color sparingly and Do not highlight every instance of title item in text body. I therefore reverted the article to remove it. -- April
