878:. Tall images should use the "upright" tag and left aligned images shouldn't be placed immediately after headings as it breaks text flow and distracts the reader. That definitely does not look good in an encyclopaedia. With this article, as in so many others (unfortunately) there are far too many headings to comfortably place images on the left, which is why we right-align them, which is the default. Left aligned images are obviously allowed but when you can't place them without affecting the readability of an article, they should go to the right or they should be left out. It's not necessary to have images for everything, they should enhance the readers understanding and huge, left aligned images after headings definitely don't do that. - 1161: 1009:). Does this mean that you would not revert me again if I put the images back? If it is just the exact location of the left images that is the issue, would I be free of the threat of another reversion if I switch up the order on which image is left and which is right in the stagger? Seriously, which way is up and if I can't just edit according the guidelines and the way that every other wine article is edited? If you're okay with a L-R stagger may I ask that you order the pictures in the L-R stagger in a way that pleases you? 227: 80: 177: 464: 294: 267: 94: 53: 851:
finish in the middle of a sentence. The lede needs to be re-written appropriately and the semillon section needs to be completed. The remainder of the article is somewhat "flowery" at times and parts need to be rewritten with a more encyclopaedic tone. Additionally, rainfall and temperature information needs to be confirmed. There are a few figures that don't match Bureau of Meteorology figures. --

All three articles are about wine regions, and the names of these articles can be misleading, as there are populated places with the same names - in fact these wine regions are based around the populated places so, at the very least they should be named "<Foo: -->

The lead section is supposed to summarise the article. The second paragraph is almost all about semillon; in fact it's only 20 words shorter than the actual semillon section, which constitutes only 3.5% of the article, but is represented by 41% of the lead. The semillon section, by the way, seems to

It is your personal opinion that Left-Right staggering doesn't look good and affect readability while others obviously think differently. In fact, seeing a wall of left-aligned text with images all pushed over to the right looks dull and off balance while the L-R staggering offers counterbalance
