I was reading through the FFVI Wikipedia entry and was amused to discover that Djibriel and Master Zed, both hosted on CoN, accounted for footnotes nos. 44 & 64, respectively: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Final_Fantasy_VI#References.
I'm not sure whether Josh should be thrilled or worried that CoN was an authority for a Wiki article. Of course, if all of Wiki's sources were as reliable as Zed & Djibriel for FFVI, it might actually be OK to use it for scholarship. |

I had seen that before, and I assure you that they'd both be pleased if either of them came around here any more.
 Me, I just host'm. Edit I stand corrected, I didn't actually realize that Dji's review is what was being linked. It's odd that things like reviews are credible sources when other things on the site may not be considered such, but hey, good for him. And you kids out there, if you write reviews and send them to the site, maybe it could be you!
