I had http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dilithium changed, but it's since been reverted.

Zoltan has one of the most impressive wiki pages I have ever seen. There are a lot of scientific pages that don't have over 100 references.
Also, you did a damn good job of hiding the edits.

The Zoltan page is very impressive. My favorite line:
Mesko has since gone on to excel on the field as a three-time Ray Guy Award watchlist candidate and off the field as not just a four-time Academic All Conference selection, but also the Space Emperor (of space).

"Other punts - the ones that return from orbit, that is - create small craters"

Great work. One fact that shocked me a bit - at the combine, Mesko apparently did 16 reps on the Bench Press. While that wouldn't be impressive for a DE or even some QBs, it seems impressive for a punter, even a space emperor.

Nice page, but the one thing I don't like is that it pumps up Zoltan at Ross Ryan's expense. Ross Ryan is a Michigan Man just like any of the other football alumni and I find these statements, while factually correct, to be in poor taste.
Mesko redshirted as a freshman at Michigan in 2005, Mesko redshirted as a freshman at Michigan in 2005, while Ryan ranked last in the Big Ten for the 2005 season with a 38.3 yard average.[36]
Entering the 2006 season for Michigan, head coach Lloyd Carr could not decide between Mesko and Ryan.[37] In the team's opening game against Vanderbilt, Mesko punted three times and Ryan once.[38] The two shared the kicking duties for the first four games with Mesko recording 12 punts and Ryan recording 9.[39][40][41][42] In the fifth game of the season, against the Minnesota Golden Gophers for the Little Brown Jug, Mesko handled all of the punting duties.[43] Ryan punted only five more times the rest of the season.

...but now that you point it out, I agree.
Side note, really liked your old avatar, the maize and blue 태국기.

I always knew Zoltan was a star.
