Who the heck put "Aversions" instead of "Diversions" on the front FFXI wiki page?

I'd change it myself, but I can't because I'm not an admin.

Aversion - 1 obsolete : the act of turning away
2 a : a feeling of repugnance toward something with a desire to avoid or turn from it <regards drunkenness with aversion> b : a settled dislike : ANTIPATHY <expressed an aversion to parties> c : a tendency to extinguish a behavior or to avoid a thing or situation and especially a usually pleasurable one because it is or has been associated with a noxious stimulus
3 : an object of aversion

Diversion - 1 : the act or an instance of diverting from a course, activity, or use : DEVIATION <bad weather forced the diversion of several flights>
2 : something that diverts or amuses : PASTIME
3 : an attack or feint that draws the attention and force of an enemy from the point of the principal operation
4 British : a temporary traffic detour

Hmm, I agree I think diversion would suit more in that case.
