Not encyclopedic in tone

edit

The article sometimes has a tone I might describe as "prescriptive" instead of "descriptive". In other words, it often reads like a standards manual or an action plan. See phrases like these:

  • Because of dangers imposed by wild animals such as lions, manual control of loops turnouts is not necessarily a good idea, and some degree of automation of these turnouts, and fencing, is desirable.
  • A simplified language such as seaspeak would be useful to reduce such problems.
  • The structure gauge of tunnels and bridges needs to be about 1 m (3.28 ft) taller.

I don't really know enough about the subject to feel comfortable fixing it. Tom Haws (talk) 05:29, 6 December 2022 (UTC)Reply
