It's one of the greatest services we provide *now*. Even when the
article prose has been turned into querulous grey mush, all but
unreadable and uneditable between the text creaking tortured beneath a
crippling weight of leechlike subclauses and the <ref> tags nailing
the subclauses to its flesh, people LOVE the reference lists. They're
perfect for further reading, or writing a non-sucky version of the
article yourself.
