Talk:Alberta and Great Waterways Railway scandal

Detagging

Regarding the removal of the {{story}} tag: I'm ok with your having removed the tag, but there are still issues in the article that I believe need to be addressed. The way the article is written now, a detailed step-by-step recounting of the events of the scandal, is not typical for an encyclopaedia and not reader-friendly; it's written in a way that the only reason to understand the article well is to sit down and read it start-to-finish, paying close attention the whole way. While this is, of course, the best way to read, one [unwritten] goal of articles on WP, as far as I know, is to be written in such a way that readers can jump around, or can skip down to the part they're interested in, or otherwise grab bits and pieces of information here and there; in other words, it shouldn't be necessary to read the article from start to finish. Perhaps {{story}} was not the most appropriate tag to use, but I do think the article needs cleanup and that that should be reflected somehow, through a tag, until the cleanup is completed. —Politizer ^talk/_contribs 00:59, 4 December 2008 (UTC)
