From [[English Wikinews|Wikinews]] comes this story:
:[[wp:Yell Group|Yell]], the [[:Category:Earth|worlds]] biggest yellow pages [[:Category:Publishing|publisher]], today threatened to shut down Yellowikis, the wiki based yellow pages [[:Category:Directory|directory]].
:{{Wp|Yell Group|Yell}}, the [[:Category:Earth|worlds]] biggest yellow pages [[:Category:Publishing|publisher]], today threatened to shut down Yellowikis, the wiki based yellow pages {{tag|directory}}.


Yell accused Yellowikis co-founders Paul Youlten and Rosa Blaus (his 15 year-old daughter) of "misrepresentation", "passing off", and suggested that using the name ''Yellowikis'' could "constitute an 'instrument of fraud'".
