[imc-oxford-features] deselected 354951, 354511

[owen at riseup.net]

I deselected the 'Oxford' option on these two articles since they have
no specific Oxford relevance, and also posted explanatory comments since
the author has complained about an earlier article being deselected too.

Faz: hopefully you understand now why these articles are being removed
from the Oxford section. Email us at imc-oxford-features at  
lists.indymedia.org
if you have any questions. On the other hand, if you carry on posting
articles which have no obvious link to Oxford we will have to treat them as
spam.
