Reason: This page has been vandalised in the past where new users have come and removed huge chunks of valid information, everytime someone adds something valid, these new users come and start removing the information. I request this page have Semi-protection, as this will stop the trolls. It gets very tiring to keep adding the same information time and time again, because of these trolls.
