Mod Note: I do not know why, but every year I have moderated the wiki history pages the Asian History section has been the most difficult and thrown up the most problems and complaints. Before using this site PLEASE make sure that you have read the Terms of Use, particularly the section on User Conduct and that you understand your personal liability when it comes to issues of libel and the posting of personal information without permission. If you do feel the need to delete material posted by other users, use the 'Edit Summary' box on the edit page to explain why you have done so in order that I can tell the difference between legitimate edits and vandalism.

Every page has an associated Talk page (see tab, above) which is the proper place for general discussion.

Please, let's keep the 2015-16 season peaceful! Thank you! AFII (talk) 06:39, May 11, 2015 (UTC)
