You're welcome - the article is looking good now. Saw that you've removed the {{underconstruction}} tag, and it was a good call. I only added it to give you time to get the article into a good state, as it can be much easier to build these articles up "on the fly" rather than in your sandbox all the time. If you need any other help while you're here, please do drop me a line. Fritzpoll (talk) 23:30, 11 May 2008 (UTC)Reply

Hi. When you recently edited Offshore Marine Management, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Survey (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Thanks for starting the article. I live locally and have various source books, so will add to it as necessary. Basic point - it's in Gloucestershire, not Wales! Ghmyrtle (talk) 21:54, 11 June 2017 (UTC)Reply
