Well, if I recall correctly, as long as it's not one of your citations, it can be done.  In other words, your one old and two new links/entries/citations can NOT refer back to your own work, but after that, it's up for grabs.  (And, I'm sure I'll be corrected if I'm wrong.) -- [[User:PhineasCrank|Doctor Phineas Crank]] 16:11, 20 Dec 2004 (EST)

''Who watches the watchers?'' You're both right. Yes, rule #3 was violated unknowingly by myself (as I both ''originally'' phantomed [[Meldersen]], and then cited it in my ''required per-turn citations''), but this should now be fixed ([[Meldersen]] was swapped out with a newly created phantom, the [[Iganefta Recorder]]). Thanks for catching this. --[[User:Morbus Iff|Morbus Iff]] 00:12, 21 Dec 2004 (EST)
