::Given the POV problems associated with the rankings, I have decided to move it here to the talk page. Since I have also added some information concerning history (with the little information that I have obtained so far), I decided to remove the cleanup tag for now. If someone believes that the article is still in need of a cleanup, replace the cleanup tag and give a reason for it. I appreciate the help if someone provides it. Talk
