[edit] Modifications 28th Oct 2006

Updated winners and categories for 1983, 1985, 1986, 1987 to correct problems with missing, incorrect information.

Amended wording slightly in places.

Added website link to Eagle Awards Website.

[edit] Modifications 29th Oct 2006

Updated entry for 1976 as I got new information regarding nominees that year.

[edit] Improvements

Suggestions for improvements can go here.

I will have a go at 1976 as the formatting seems off. (Emperor 16:21, 30 October 2006 (UTC))

I can't see an issue with the formatting, double checked in both IE 6 and 7 and FF - whats the problem you can see? GlennCarter 18:32, 5 November 2006 (UTC)

Well the indenting is causing the preformatting formatting to kick in (not only is it ugly, not need and semantically incorrect but it also causes horizontal scrolling problems for people running small screen resolutions - I suspect the style guidlines probably have something to say about its use too). Also the results are clearly just copy and pasted from the Eagle Awards site (they even have WINNER! next to them) with some light formatting done. I;d imagine this would violate the various copyright violation guidelines, leaving the whole shooting match wide open to being removed. The least we could do is apply a consistent style, remove block capitals, etc. We'll have the 2006 results soon so I'll go through them and we can take it from there. I keep meaning to start this but the whole thing is a little intimidating but if I do the current year and then we can discuss it. (Emperor 03:06, 13 May 2007 (UTC))

I note some of the years have been tidied already, thanks. I've done 1989 and 2006 (using 2004 as template) as well so only 1976 - 1979 left. Haven't yet filled in links in 2006, will do this then start on the earlier years. (GlennCarter 03:06, 07 June 2007 (UTC))

Tidied 1976. Slowly working my way through nominations copied from website then will try to fix up the rest to fit in as well. (GlennCarter 03:45, 07 June 2007 (UTC))

[edit] Cleanup

Whats with all the caps? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Artw (talk • contribs) 17:34, 19 June 2007

Because the information is largely copy and pasted from the Eagle site e.g. - see also my comments in the section above. (Emperor 18:42, 19 June 2007 (UTC))
