This article is good it just needs to be simplfied. There is no reson to delete it.

Magor trimming and simplified.[change source]

The article was at the top of largest articles and in desperate need of simplification. I trimmed a lot of it out - mainly quotes and strategy which I felt is beyond the scope of a SimpleWiki article. While informative, it seems best to just present a more simple version of the facts. If the reader wants more, He or she should probably be looking at their native language Wiki for a more detailed and indepth article.

I dropped it from around 70K down to under 20K, simplified a lot and added links fairly common on SimpleWiki. (en:wiki where it most likely came from requires less links to what it accepts are much more commonly understood words that dont need to be looked up)

There is still much room for improvement in both polishing it up and continued simplication, but after 3 hours of working on the same text, I'm not of the right frame of mind to continue working on it. Creol 15:21, 2 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
