This page reads like it was written by a staffer! (But it doesn't appear to have been lifted from his website holus bolus.) It has good info, just needs a bit of cleaning up E.g. "household name" is a gross exaggeration; the quote from Howard is not particularly relevent given that Moyes is in State parliament (and I'm sure negative quotes abound!); "life issues" could be more neutral; "spearheaded reform agendas" is probably an exaggeration.

I shall start changing the gross PoV. Would appreciate some help on any minor PoV I miss. Nick 14:15, 17 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] NSW State Election 2007?

Could I ask what Moyes' status is, following the recent NSW state election? Calibanu 10.24, 30 March 2007

Only half the Legislative Council comes up for election every four years, as members serve eight-year terms. Moyes was thus not up for election this time - he will face the polls again in 2011. Fred Nile was the CDP member facing re-election this year. Rebecca 02:14, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

Thank you, Rebecca. I have accordingly amended Moyes page to reflect that information, as well as that of the CDP. Calibanu 12.22, 01 April 2007
