Huh? What “other” 25 contentious topics?

This is an internal-plumbing page. Not very interesting to the non-initiated.

I think it's interesting that the capitalization of article titles is nearly as controversial as the Arab-Israeli conflict (another contentious topic).

Ha. Funny.

NB for others: the actual juicy list is at the bottom of another page.

The Arab-Israeli topic has ~~a two-letter code (ai)~~ the prestigious vanity plate "a-i".

it's actually a-i, one of the only three codes with a hyphen in it
