trust even those few additions that seemed to make sense -- but, knowing next to nothing about Glasgow myself (I've never been there and I'm halfway across the planet from there), I'd have had to check it all via Google or similar. What a waste of time! By inclination, I'm democratic, but the results of open access at WP can try my patience at times. --

Sorry that you actually spent time on it, but I'm afraid you or somebody else will have to spend a little more ... or of course revert it. 51:

Hi, all the references I have describe the South Africa end as a substation "near Johannesburg", not "near Pretoria". The two cities are only about 50 km apart, but do you have a pointer to a reference that shows where this HVDC converter station is? I'm Googling for it but no-one has included a map

Tiles, you've done a great job. But what a mess that article still is. I've a feeling that a lot of it comes from wishful thinking, stuff half remembered from dodgy comments half digested from TV seen months previously, etc. Of course, this all makes me wonder what the articles on other cities are

You are mistaking me for somebody else. This is the first time I have adjusted the images in the Architecture section. I did so because they were all over the place. I positioned them to the far right of the page which leaves adequate space for the remaining text. I can only assume that your

Thank you for your trouble, and my apologies for not having been firmer on our (I suspect) young friend at the start. Actually I was about to wade into the article a second time, but I really didn't want to: almost every alteration he made was for the worse, leaving me with little inclination to

Hi, sorry, so it is your first time, my mistake. But it's not just one browser - it's 3 different browsers (including Internet Explorer) which give the fault. Genuine question - how were they "all over the place before"? Because without the code, it seem much better arranged to me.

is. Certainly on my computer, and all my browsers, the only effect is to move the images halfway across the page, forcing the text to the left into a very narrow column. If this is the intended effect it doesn't look good at all. If it's meant to do something else, what is it?

I've spent a liitle more time and cleaned up some of the duplication and loose statements. There is more to do. I tried at one stage to have the article recognised as a FAC but had no idea that it had deteriorated so much since

Incidentally, as somebody far from Britain and quaint British notions of identity, I'm amused by the way that the article still points out that this is a "European" city. (What might one otherwise expect? African? Oceanian?) --

Thanks! I looked at the map and Apollo substation really is closer to Pretoria than Johannesburg...in spite of what the BPA paper says. I'd look forward to any comments or edits you can do on any of the HVDC articles.
