			:See this Melnorme quote:
			:"After almost twenty-five hundred years of unrelenting Dnyarri control
			there were only four living member races of the once-great Sentient Milieu.
			By this point, the Dnyarri had used genetic manipulation to split the Ur-Quan into two sub-species
			the Green Ur-Quan -- scientists, technicians, and administrators
			who were responsible for maintaining the limited infrastructure of the Dnyarri civilization
			and the Black Ur-Quan, who filled the ranks of basic laborer and combat soldier.
			Then, a chance discovery by an Ur-Quan named Kzer-Za
			led to the violent overthrow of the Dnyarri Slave Empire."

	I saw your original edit in the RSS feed and had already fixed the problem. At least, it worked in the page I was watching, which was the 'diff' page. The reason it didn't work for the article itself was because that page was cached. Adding '&action=purge' to the URL took care of that. — [[User:Svdb\|SvdB]] 21:51, 6 July 2006 (CEST)		I saw your original edit in the RSS feed and had already fixed the problem.
