Oh, so it did. And it works!

What's great about this kind of improvement is that it lets you see
where the next possible improvements could be:
- Separate out infoboxes
- Separate out images

*shrug*

Anyway, I look forward to a new era of editing without massive cite
templates in my face!

(And yes, a bot should go through and move them all...or at least ones
where the definition > X characters)
