I've been leaving the article updates to User:Barabbas1312 but I have just rewritten the sentence identified by User:Gatoclass to clear that particular issue. I have made a further check with Earwig's Copyvio Detector which reports "Violation Unlikely", just finding phrases like "the mouth of the Tyne", which seem quite standard in this context. Andrew D.

Many thanks; I have also now redrafted and expanded that section.Barabbas1312 (talk) 09:11, 13 September 2016 (UTC)

@Gatoclass: Try again. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 17:32, 18 September 2016 (UTC)

Haven't had time to look at it again yet - I'll get back to it a bit later this week. Gatoclass (talk) 19:04, 18 September 2016 (UTC)

Actually, since I only had the one minor concern, and that's been addressed, I think I will pass it now. Gatoclass (talk) 19:11, 18 September 2016 (UTC)
