** There is no edit war. You yourself stated that this wiki is about facts. I have fixed the article to correct and oversight. --[[User:Drmike|Drmike]] 11:30, 29 February 2008 (EST)

::Whatever. I still believe there is a difference between "caused '''''a''''' member to leave" and "caused '''''some''''' members to leave." --[[User:Quiverwing|Quiverwing]] 10:06, 8 March 2008 (EST)
