Added some citations to the BSD KNF section.

HSL and HSV

Elaborate on HSL "invented for television" and HSV "introduced the HSV model for computer display technology"

Rainbow

The question of whether everyone sees seven colours in a rainbow is related to the idea of linguistic relativity. […] recent research suggests that the number of distinct colours observed and what these are called depend on the language that one uses, with people whose language has fewer colour words seeing fewer discrete colour bands.

Alphabetical list of articles

Sometimes, it might be useful to look up a subject in the same way you would do so in a book—in the index. Wikipedia has an index. To use it..

  1. click on the Special pages line of the Tools menu
  2. from the Lists of pages section, click on the All pages with prefix link
  3. at Display pages with prefix: type the beginning of the article's name into the box and press Go.

You will see a list of all pages that begin with what you typed.

You can reduce the number of articles displayed in this list by typing more of the name and pressing Go again. You can also find Wikipedia users in a similar way by changing the entry in the drop-down box labelled Namespace, from (Article) to User.
