Article dated 5th March 2006 is more factually accurate than article dated 7th March 2006 and contains more information. None of the salient points have been changed - why the revert? R

I can only imagine it's due to someone thinking the stuff about Oriel dominating rowing being unsuitable, but I don't think this is obviously a problem. It should certainly be edited out if it is, rather than reverted out. I'm going to rerevert now. Edd 16:14, 7 March 2006 (UTC)

With two periods of consecutive wins of seven years in Eights (the nearest any other college has got is four), and twenty-five years undefeated in Torpids, I don't think "dominating rowing" is wrong when talking about Oriel, but I'm a bit biased ;) --Alf ^melmac 18:14, 7 March 2006 (UTC)

criticism fair, but text present beforehand! Edit to dominance of torpids, where Oriel have been head for the last 34 years less twice (one bump, one demotion). I should also get an account... cheers, R
