I've just removed the the from the template. It's not needed sometimes and complicates things. However, I've been adding it to some of the articles that do need it. Still 30 left. Anybody gonna help out, or did I do something stupid I'll probably regret in a few hours? San Saber 01:51, 16 December 2010 (CET)
