This entry still needs an enormous amount of cleaning.
Definately... This article is badly worded, and verb tenses are switch randomly, including use of the first person when referring to events in the 1800s... —Preceding unsigned comment added by Donnyj (talk • contribs) 18:14, 17 December 2007 (UTC)Reply

I've completed a stem-to-stern copy-edit of the article. As much of the text originates from the 1911 Britannica, there are parts of the article that have an old-fashioned turn of phrase. I generally have not disturbed that where it is still grammatically correct and not terribly impenetrable. If there are specific sections that still need rephrasing, give a shout here and I'll have a look. // ⌘macwhiz (talk) 21:22, 13 November 2010 (UTC)Reply
