431 - In 2006, Bangladesh claimed the bronze medal in the
Asian Games in the sport of
kabaddi, the only medal that country won in those games. Turns out that about ten of the players of that team were on this month's list, something that the primary sourcing for has disappeared off the main interwebs, but which was captured by the Internet Archive. I love it when I can source several articles with the same citation. Three cheers for the Wayback Machine! --j⚛e deckertalk 06:21, 29 October 2010 (UTC)reply

299 - Ugh, indeed! Working my way through "H" is a hard, unrewarding slog. Theme seems to be one one-line, out of date stubs on African, Bangladeshi and Afghani politicians (oh, and there were three Irish hurlers). Also three copyvios which needed a hard edit.--

The five remaining "H" articles are probably destined for PROD or AfD unless any of the "help" messages I've left with various projects comes through and rescues them. Decided to leave for a couple of days just in case and will deal with at the weekend.--
