Doubts about mentions of Drew Durnil in introductions
editHe already has a section about the flooding, so why would we need to mention this in the introductory paragraphs? Also, I have some more information about him that I’ll try to get sources for. Sometaintedlove (talk) 16:56, 2 May 2020 (UTC)

Dark mode?
editMany of the photos taken in this article are in dark mode, however, this makes it very difficult to see certain things, and also the default mode is far more widely used. Jeremy Beatson (Use this button to talk to me) 03:15, 1 December 2020 (UTC)
- Concur, pictures should be re-done in light mode. Ifly6 (talk) 19:12, 9 December 2020 (UTC)
- Whoops, forgot to reply to this. I replaced the image in dark mode with my own image in light mode. -- Waffledogefern (talk) 20:14, 10 September 2021 (UTC)
too much detail
editThere is a lot of stuff in the article here which really ought to be viewed as excessive detail and trivial content. Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information. https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:INDISCRIMINATE. In such instances, delete details that can be reasonably removed. Big long sections about what some raider or defender group did in some operation are not relevant to NationStates, for the same reasons the United Kingdom article is not padded with irrelevant cruft about what Theresa May ate for breakfast on her last day as prime minister.
A substantial number of sources are also self published. See WP:SELFPUBLISH. They should be removed. Ifly6 (talk) 19:27, 9 December 2020 (UTC)
