It appears you may not have realized that this is not intended to be an article but a list. Lists on Wikipedia are a tool used to group together pages in a category for ease of access. The most common characteristics of a list is the page name starting with "List of …" or "Types of ...". Another is bullet points and a lack of complete sentences, Tables of Contents, See Also and External Links sections, infoboxes and more. Frankly, given your status as a reviewer, it leaves me baffled at how you couldn't recognize a list. I didn't think it was possible. Sir Gilbert (talk) 04:03, 2 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

This is supposed to be a list, not an article. I am not aware of any pages on Wikipedia where I can submit a list.Sir Gilbert (talk) 21:45, 16 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
