Why the list of some conventions at the bottom of the page? If a convention is large enough or notable enough they should have their own wiki page, with a list (if appropriate) of all of the venues so far. Saying "Four best attended conventions" is very vague and just wrong. The numbers for last few years are: 648 Portland 2006 674 Davenport 2005 808 Buffalo 2004 And from the same source I found out that the Portland number includes 123 day passes, and who knows if those people were returning (duplicate) attendees. Meanwhile, the Berlin Convention has a show venue of 600 which is always sold out to people who have pre-registered! On top of that there are (even last year when it clashed with 4 other conventions in Europe) about 150-200 extra people who watch the show on video screens in the gym. The Berlin convention is growing and the IJA is shrinking, why not list the Berlin at the bottom of the page? And there are conventions in France that get more than 600 people turn up year after year. Why not list these? If a list is needed, just move it to the page about that particular festival if it has one. Maybe a section at the top or bottom of the page that lists notable conventions is needed, but I think an encyclopedia entry on conventions should be more about conventions in general, rather than just lists of "big" conventions.
