 ::I thought about changing it a long time ago, but the county court where I went thought ""Herbert Dinwiddie"" was too laughable, so I gave up!    
 I think it is very commendable that you at least try to reatain objectiveness. 
 Though my views might be a little different (I think there's is more to this than meets the eye, to say the least.) it would be nice if you could fix at least the verbage of this article. 
 Although you stuck to 'documented facts' (though the source itself my be tainted or biased, one way or the other) the article reads a bit too matter-of-factly. 
 Like mentioned above, it would be great if you could mention all sources and theories and all the evidence for both, while also admitting what is true, such as what the Coast Guard says, or what scientists say, or what the Triangle Authors say etc. If you know what I'm trying to say. 
 In this way, I think, you will nave the most information and an appearent objectivenss that will speak of itself in the future.

 ==Oldest newspaper story with the name ""Bermuda Triangle""== 
 I went through Proquest's newspapers again, looking for the oldest newspaper report on a missing aircraft, ship, whatever, and the incident in question had to have the words ""Bermuda Triangle"" as part of the story.  The search was limited to the New York Times (not much of a choice with Proquest...I would like to see many others), and the search was limited between the dates 01/01/1960 to 01/01/1975.  All that came up were advertizements for vacations on Bermuda, as well as the Berlitz book being on the New York Times best seller list for the end of November, 1974.  No incidents at all.  None.  Nada. 

 That means the oldest newspaper account in which the writer uses the words ""Bermuda Triangle"" to describe a disappearance has to be the SS Sylvia L. Ossa, which went down south of Bermuda in 1976.  I put up references on both the Bermuda Triangle source page and SS Marine Sulphur Queen, as they were sister ships.  But again, that is limited to dates I entered while searching through the New York Times alone. 

 The point of all that is I want to see references to the oldest Triangle writings.  We have Gaddis listed here; we have George X. Sand referenced, and a few others who have made their marks in magazines.  I thought it would be interesting to have the reader see the oldest use of a newspaper entry with the Triangle title directly related to a disappearence.  What say you?    

 == Freak Waves == 

 I moved the section on Freak Waves to the Natural Explanations section, as this is a natural explanation. Why it was previously under Popular Explanations, I do not know. It may be popular, but it fits better under natural phenomena.   

 :I originally placed it there, possibly as it was one of the popular theories regarding the incidents...but it still works where you placed it.  I also moved the related pic to go with it.   i do not agree with the freak waves being under Natural Explanations do to there is very little evidence of the waves being a contributer due to people's storys they could be lieing just to not be afriad 

 == Citation on methane concentration == 

 This sentence is requesting a cite: ""Methane also has the ability to cause a piston engine to stall when released into the atmosphere even at an atmospheric concentration as low as 1%[citation needed]"" under Methane Hydrates. I saw it on the show Dive to Bermuda Triangle on The Science Channel. Is that a reputable cite?   

 :A good source is one that can be checked by others, so they don't have to rely on your say-so.    

 ::I'm not expecting others to rely on my say-so. That's why I didn't cite it in the article. I could not find an online reference for this assertion. But it seems that the original author may have got the information from the same show. imdb link: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0408692/  I will continue to look for a cite.   

 :::I didn't mean to jump on you.  I intended ""your"" in the more generic sense.  I should have written more precisely: ""so they don't have to rely on the author's say-so.""    

 ::OK, gotcha. I assume that the writers of the show got their information from somewhere, but I cannot find it on the web anywhere. It's pr
