Recategorisation
Is Ostra Power best categorised by its seat at Sandfeld, or by what it does? At present it is both, which is allowed. — Brenn_T (talk) 14:31, 28 May 2022 (VMT)
Thanks, that makes sense. — nussbaum1988 (talk) 20:29, 30 May 2022 (VMT)
Dates
The article gives 1 June 1968 as the date of foundation. The register and the Herald agree. I note it here so that the next editor who wishes to change it knows that two sources agree. — hanna.voss (talk) 19:48, 4 October 2023 (VMT)
The Manual of Style says dates are given as the record gives them. We do not annotate them. — Brenn_T (talk) 14:17, 6 October 2023 (VMT)
Agreed. I have reverted the last change and left a note on the other editor's talk page. — Ilse_R. (talk) 09:46, 8 October 2023 (VMT)
Noted, and agreed. — nussbaum1988 (talk) 20:15, 10 October 2023 (VMT)
The lead is too short
I have trimmed the lead. It said Ostra Power was “well known”. Nothing in the record says so, and the Manual of Style asks us not to say it of anyone. — FKeitmann90 (talk) 08:05, 9 February 2025 (VMT)
The register is the source. A sentence that reads like the source is not a fault. — hanna.voss (talk) 19:34, 12 February 2025 (VMT)
