To Do

(Reminders to me regarding pages or issues I think need work -- you're free to be bold and address it for me :-) )

~~VBScript needs adjusting according to my comments in Talk:VBScript~~
Usenet and Newsgroup duplicate information and NNTP could expand too
~~Should NSD refer to Natasha Stott Despoja?~~
