British nuclear tests at Maralinga

Hi folks,

I've recently been working on this article, thoroughly sourcing claims (and rewriting where needed), adding a map, eyewitness quote, and table, and so on, and I'd be grateful for any comments or assistance with any work needed to improve it further.

Sorry if this is the wrong place to ask - if so, would someone please copy this request to the appropriate place?

The main thing is the lead. It needs to be a good two or three paragraphs and summarize the rest of the article. Other than that, I wish I could say this article needs to be expanded generally, but unfortunately I don't know much about how an article on this topic would look like, so length doesn't seem like an issue (though it could be). It also needs a light copyedit.UberCryxic 16:59, 7 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your comments. I've now expanded the lead section. Jakew 11:59, 8 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

This is a pretty good article on an interesting topic. I think that the article would greatly benefit from the addition of a section putting the tests in context - eg, what explaining why the tests were carried out in Australia and what the British were hoping to prove during the tests. At present the tests' role in the British nuclear program is somewhat unclear.
