[edit] Poole reference reductions

As I cut some details from the article to keep the length down it occurred to me that some people might think there was a political motive in my reducing the number of references to Poole (X is really in Poole and not in Bournemouth, etc). My motive for removing some of these references is that some of them are repeated, and that some of them are excessive detail in a long article, particularly if they are already mentioned in the article of the relevant subject. While it is an interesting phenomenon that deserves a mention, to me at least, it doesn't need half a dozen mentions in an article that is already very long. That is my only concern here.

Agreed. At present I think there are only two references to the phenomenon, in the lead and in the economy. There used to be half a dozen. Good work. LordHarris 19:24, 6 April 2008 (UTC)
