[WikiEN-l] History started in 1995

It's an article on how wonderful it is that political movements are
better documented in their formative stages these days ... but all I
could think was what a pain it can be researching anything that
happened before 1995.

After the low-hanging fruit come those of us with books.

(I've been *really annoyed* lately when a fact in an article has a
reference ... but it's been tagged {{fact}} because it doesn't have an
*online* reference. Suggestion: searching for all articles with
"</ref>{{fact" in them and sending 50,000 volts through the chair of
anyone who tagged a reference on mere paper.
