*I ought to let such blatant eurocentrism and anglocentrism speak for itself, but I cannot resist a reply. Is everyone else watching this? “Banana republics”? You cannot possibly be serious. To my previous list of countries where even a ''change of government'' is unimportant to you, we can now add Russia, Singapore, and Caucasian Georgia. I tried to assume that you ([[User:Astrotrain|Astrotrain]]) were merely biased, but your edit summaries revealed your contempt. As I noted before, the message I left was [[User_talk:Astrotrain#2004_edits|here]]. It was not my intention to remove your additions; you will note that in my earlier remarks, I argued against removing editors’ contributions. I reverted your edits because they were so obviously biased. Why should I take the trouble to keep the contributions of someone who has such a parochial point of view? You resent the personal attacks, you say. Your edits make your standpoint clear; describe it how you like. And ''I'' resent your haughty disregard of the vast majority of the world. Well, you win. I do not have time to play this childish game with you. This page will be what you want it to be. But I will tag it for disputed neutrality, so that unsuspecting users of the encyclopedia will know that there is a problem. — [[User:Ford|Ford]] 02:06, 2004 Oct 25 (UTC)
 
Hello Ford, I am sorry you are taking this viewpoint. I disagree that this article has disputed neutrality, afterall the events listed did indeed happen, even your election additions I imagine. I resent the fact that you accuse me of adding only British events, when I added Tokyo earthquake, Missouri plane crash, Iraq events, Australian embassy bombs etc. I have contributed to this article since Jan 1st 2004, adding many events and removing ones that are obviously unimportant (eg someone at the start of the year thought that price increases on the Chicago Underground meritted an entry). The entries you put I guess where more important than these, but uneccesarry in my view. [[User:Astrotrain|Astrotrain]]
