[edit] Clean-up

An editor needs to take this in hand, I've tried but a lot more needs to be done. Saga City 22:14, 7 August 2007 (UTC)

Someone (alas not me) has done a really blinding edit so I feel the tag is no longer necessary The Sanctuary Sparrow 15:27, 17 August 2007 (UTC)

Please note the clean-ups I have now done. Too much of what was there was acceptable for spoken English and, indeed, read as if someone had dictated it. Also, for example, it is neither necessary nor helpful to link to the names of the days of the week unless they are of exceptional meanings to the article. Also Nelson was continually linked to as if earlier editors had never heard of the admiral, let alone the town in New Zealand. Saga City 16:59, 17 August 2007 (UTC)

It's looking really good now-I only took the tag off as I felt the issues in the article itself didn't merit the tag, needing only copyediting etc. I think it was put on earlier than NorthernPeak's edit which added a lot of detail, with only minor style problems. I'm usually wrong about these things though, being a relative n00b :) The Sanctuary Sparrow 08:03, 18 August 2007 (UTC)
