:::Aimed toward an Admin: So sorry to take time out of a person's day, but I felt like it couldn't hurt. May I suggest adding a new heading on the Main Page? Would you consider adding a Quote of the Day/Week/Month section? Perhaps a Featured User ot something along that line would be interesting (although I'm not sure that would be feasible or how it would fair). Also, a type of "easter egg" system that maybe linked to hidden content not otherwise accesible would make the page a tad more adventurous. If you chose to do hidden content, however, it may just be fascinating facts or something of the sort. How does this sound? <small><span class="autosigned">—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Howdychicken|Howdychicken]] ([[User talk:Howdychicken|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Howdychicken|contribs]]) 21:42, 20 December 2008 (UTC)</span></small><!-- Template:Unsigned --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

The translation for the one from Ferdinando from Italy should say "The world <b>would not be</b> the same without Wikipedia" instead of "The world <b>is not</b> the same ..." (without the boldface, of course). The latter implies that Wikipedia no longer exists.<br>

:I'm presuming the foundation is aiming for a more literal translation even if it might be gramatically incorrect.

== Eastern Roman not Byzantine if you mention the dispute ==

Calling the Roman emperor of the time "Byzantine" is NPOV as it allready implies that he wasn't a Roman Emperor. This biases the debate right away. Yes I know that this is the most common phrase in the West (and Greece, and Greece I know), '''however''' since there is mention of the dispute regarding who had the right to bear the title Roman it should be made clear thet the Byzantines '''were''' Romans. The so called Byzantine Empire was in fact the Eastern part of the Roman Empire that survived for another thousand year after the fall of the Western half.

"Pope Leo III crowned Charlemagne (bust pictured) Roman Emperor"

Roman Emperor linked to [[Holy_Roman_Emperor]] which disputes the above statement. Suggest removal of Holy Roman Emperor link.
