== The answer to the list objection ==


I'm aware that Citizendium articles are not generally supposed to be lists. However, since digging the list of commemorations out of the original work requires dealing with a PDF with an awkward interface which is all in French, it seems consistent with the goal of creating an easy-to-access English-language encyclopedia to have compiled the list here. Plus, it seems it would be helpful to the average reader to have all the article links at hand. [[User:Petréa Mitchell|Petréa Mitchell]] 15:01, 7 April 2007 (CDT)

The answer to the list objection

I'm aware that Citizendium articles are not generally supposed to be lists. However, since digging the list of commemorations out of the original work requires dealing with a PDF with an awkward interface which is all in French, it seems consistent with the goal of creating an easy-to-access English-language encyclopedia to have compiled the list here. Plus, it seems like it would be helpful to the average reader to have all the article links at hand. Petréa Mitchell 15:01, 7 April 2007 (CDT)

Hardly any basic clean up to be done here, but the issue of whether the article ought to be kept because it's mostly list is still up for debate. Simon Yee 21:48, 26 May 2007 (CDT)
