thread_title: Cleanup tag

message: I know it's easy to criticise without contributing, but I'm a little pressed for time so I can't go hunting for a reference... But the statement "Telkom has said it may withdraw" is unreferenced and considering the reason given I think it's important a reference be cited.--The Extremist [User, Talk] 19:01, 5 September 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Last time I checked, there are articles on the Internet stating how Kenya (Telkom) is pulling out, and planning its own connection for East Africa to the Middle East. It cited disagreements with South Africa over the cost and scope of EASSy. Rarelibra 20:43, 5 September 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: An 'outdated' tag seems inappropriate. Maybe a 'current events' tag is best - and more suitable? Rarelibra 20:43, 5 September 2007 (UTC)

·        Gerunds are nouns that are identical to the present participle (-ing form) of a verb, as in "I enjoy swimming more than running."
·        
·        An attributive noun is a noun that modifies another noun that immediately follows it, such as business in business meeting. These nouns look like adjectives but they're not.
·        
·        For learners of English, the most important feature of a noun is whether it can be counted. A count noun is a noun that can be used after a or an or after a number (or another word that means "more than one"). Count nouns have both singular and plural forms and can be used with both singular and plural verb forms, as with the word letter in "A letter for you is on the table. Letters for you arrive regularly." Sometimes the plural form of a count noun is the same as its singular form, as in "I saw a deer in my yard yesterday. There are a lot of deer in the woods near my house."
·        
·        A mass noun (or noncount noun) refers to something that cannot be counted. Mass nouns are normally not used after the words a or an or after a number. They have only one form and are used with singular verb forms, as in "Portuguese is one of the languages they speak," and "The information was unclear."
·        
·        Some nouns are not count or mass nouns. Nouns which only ever refer to one thing are called singular nouns: "Saturn is the sixth planet from the sun," "We heard a terrible din in the alley." And a plural noun refers to more than one person or thing, or sometimes to something that has two main parts. Plural nouns have only one form and are used with plural verb forms: "Townspeople are invited to a forum on the project," "These scissors are dull."
·        
·        A particular noun can have any or all of these kinds of uses.
·        
·        (count) I've read that book several times.
·        
·        (mass) Time seemed to stop when I saw him for the first time.
·        
·        (singular) The time is 3:22.
·        
·        (plural) Fuel costs three times as much as it did five years ago.
