OR[edit]

Like it says in the first sentence, I was contacted by Racheal Ford, and I got the information from her via e-mail. --Nzgabriel | Talk 08:24, 30 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Dr. Who[edit]

who is Dr. Meffen? why is his first name unknown when first mention, but is later given as "Patrick"? (have fixed the latter). — Doldrums(talk) 10:25, 30 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

couple of things[edit]

  1. can we change some of the "Candor Trust says" to "Rachel Ford says"?
  2. "they tug steering wheel; or "run off road events."" is not very clear.
  3. "speed theory" and 'Ashtons formula' need to be defined.
  4. have removed "Perhaps the obvious causality is apparent but not real.", unclear what this means.

Meaning of this[edit]

Perhaps it is because I am not from NZ, but what does this sentence mean:

Candor Trust said the most important issue that could end up saving lives is the use of 1990 dated imports for the under 25-year-olds on the "State Goat Tracks."—The preceding unsigned comment was added by 65.242.47.185 (talkcontribs) 14:54, 30 January 2007

Well it's not just you I couldn't make that one out either, it should change!--Steven Fruitsmaak (Reply) 19:16, 30 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I have fixed up what you have all said, hopefully (I couldn't participate in your discussion earlier, I just got up). But for the "can we change some of the "Candor Trust says" to "Rachel Ford says"?" question, I marked all the stuff that was not identifiable as a quote or marked that Rachael Ford said it as Candor Trust says. --Nzgabriel | Talk 19:51, 30 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

If you need attention to this story, please send me an email and I will try to see what I can do for you. --Nzgabriel | Talk 19:55, 30 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

External links[edit]

Shouldn't there be some possible extern. links for this, like Candor or the NZ ministry of transport? --Brian McNeil / talk 20:02, 30 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
