Title

[edit]

Tried to fix the title, I didn't realize all the who what where when needed to be in title, thought that was for the article, and the title was the lead in. I think the new title says all the WWWW Kind Regards SriMesh | talk 01:10, 7 March 2009 (UTC)Reply

Generally only Who, What, Where need to be answered in a title. Also, remember that you are writing for an international audience, so the Where needs to be general enough for people to have some clue about where it is. For instance, "Pileup on second street" is fine for a local newspaper, because it is assumed to be taking place in that city/town. But from the point of view of an international reader, well, there are thousands of 2nd streets in the world;). Even saying "British Columbia" in the title is pushing a bit, since it is unlikely that a reader in most countries would know where that is. But I think that the title is fine for now. Try adding a little bit more to the article if you can, and the split it up into three paragraphs. Then it should be ready to publish.Gopher65talk 03:16, 7 March 2009 (UTC)Reply
Thank you for your kind words and the help with the new more universal title, will try to do a three paragraph expansion. Kind Regards SriMesh | talk 04:33, 7 March 2009 (UTC)Reply
