Truth on the Rocks

HI Steven

are we allowed to tweak this page for clarity? i hope so as it's a bit confusing as it stands. can we introduce the list of headlines or whatever they are, beginning "Spot the Difference", with an explanation of what they are? Quotes from news reports about the event? if so, we should say so.

also the formatting is unclear. we need para breaks and subheads would help clarity. also we need to get rid of superfluous stuff like the end of this:

3.30pm — Geoffrey Howe says no bomb found and that the three February 1989MAGILL9

also what does this mean?

(7.3.88 also quoted in What the Papers Say C4 12.3.88)

this may be a work in prog -- hope so! i can imagine it's much clearer in a printed version as formatting may clarify.

many thanks --Claire Robinson 18:48, 29 October 2009 (UTC)

Quotes

HI Steven

good stuff on defence league etc. small general point about quotes and indents: when we indent quotes we don't also need quotation marks. It's either/or. The indent functions as a quote mark. the beauty of this is that when we have a quote inside a quote we don't have to think about double and single quotes etc.

many thanks
