Ticonderoga/ Carillon

[edit]

There seems to be an unresolved tension in sections of this article between Ticonderoga, the traditional name of the action/campaign in which Howe died, and a comparitively recent movement to rename it as the 'Battle of Carillon', as exemplified by the Wikipedia article of that name

While this is not the place to develope the unresolved debate on that subject (see 'Battle of Carillon' Talk page), the result in this article is some clumsy prose which adds little to the information on Howe's life. I propose to tidy up some of the redundancies and I shall favour the traditional name of Ticonderoga, which is the name best known in British military tradition, to which George Howe belongs.
