On a separate note, these types of lists may *seem* helpful and convenient. But mostly, they're a pain in the ass. They are rarely used, and quickly obsolete and misleading. They depend on a lot of people doing a lot of manual work. The semantic idea seems, to me, to be a bit cleaner and easier. All you have to do is add/remove the [[has feature:: ]] tag from the region page, and everything else is done for you. If it changes hands, then all the dependent information is automatically updated. Clean and easy. But still, requires a lot of manual work to keep it up to date.
If at first you don't succeed, don't take up skydiving.
