The section about the 1988 underwater study describes the research paper, but says nothing about Petersburg itself. This should be replaced with specific facts about Petersburg.Hughespj 13:26, 3 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I went ahead and removed the underwater survey material that was not specifically describing the town of Petersburg. Perhaps this would be better located in a page about underwater archaeology. The abstract, which states the same information, is linked to the reference. Hughespj 17:27, 16 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The Harvard reference style is one of the three methods approved by Wikipedia. The article is referenced and is easy to both read and edit, and in my opinion should stay the way it is. To quote: "You should follow the style already established in an article, if it has one; where there is disagreement, the style or system used by the first editor to use one should be respected." Our time is better spent on insanely great content. If there is no reply I will remove the notice at the top of the article. Hughespj (talk) 12:10, 27 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
