- While I appreciate your concern about potentially libelous comments, please note that the edit I made was taken from the article sourced in the sentence directly preceding my edit. Should I change my edit so that it precedes the source text, instead of following it?
- As for the sentence about a diamond industry expert being able to analyze whether a stone is a diamond or not, does that need to be sourced as well? I would have to search the website of the Gemological Institute of America, and/or the Jewelers Vigilance Committee, so please let me know ahead of time before I start the research. --204.246.229.130 (talk) 18:34, 5 August 2010 (UTC)
