Qtel edit

I removed the entire section, as there is no controversy of any sort. The media is just off their rockers, that's all.--Jimbo Wales 19:37, 2 January 2007 (UTC)Reply

Curtis G. Culin edit

Thank you very much for articles in two languages. I've tried to work on the English version a bit and negotiated for a photo in both pages; I hope to do more as time permits. Merci! --Thatnewguy (talk) 17:45, 31 March 2009 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for the correction of my english mistakes. I've heard about Culin when I was a young boy in Normandy. I remembered it after a WE near the landing beaches so I created the article. TCY (talk) 02:22, 1 April 2009 (UTC)Reply
