Maybe you figured it out already, but there's a robbery and followup going on at Misplaced Pages:WikiMoney accounts; you'd have to look at the history and follow the link at the top of the page for requests for (funny) comments to see what's up. People did seem to have been using the account and it's possible that the W$ will be returned at some point, but I think most of us are just watching to see what ensues, for our pathetic entertainment.

I will reply in more detail later, but a couple of quick notes:
- Please use the local spellings unless there are English variants.
- Do not link to www.nationmaster.com or encyclopedia.thefreedictionary.com when they're just outdated copies of Misplaced Pages.
