I've reworded that section a bit, here's the new version:
---
I want to tank but I want to do other things too like cast spells or pull mobs and feign death
Shadow Knight > Paladin >> Monk > Bard > Ranger
SKs and Paladins are both great tanks in EXP groups, and SKs have the added bonus of being able to solo somewhat. Some of the melee classes can also be passable tanks with the right gear and know-how. Bards have excellent aggro generation, can wear plate, and have a huge array of other useful abilities. Rangers and monks can both be acceptable tanks; rangers are better at holding aggro, but monks are better at DPSing.
---
Note, I don't necessarily think monks are better tanks than bards; that was someone else's change, but I don't think there is enough data to show one way or the other.
