Grammar/Word Choice

Can someone please rewrite most of this page? It is dreadful to read.

Renaming

This needs to be renamed the 2011 Libyan Uprising. In the East, the opposition flags are flying and protestors control most of the area.

I agree.Wipsenade (talk) 19:29, 19 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I fully agree too. This is not a simple protest anymore.--Agitateur (talk) 22:30, 19 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I was about to do this. But, while I see that the redirect would be automatic, it looks like one should fix/alter the SORTKEYS if renaming a page. Does anyone know if leaving "Libyan Protest" sortkeys (etc.) in place and adding "Libyan Uprising" (etc.) keys would work?

I don't want to break any connections with other Arab/Libyan "Protest" pages unnecessarily. Praghmatic (talk) 01:04, 20 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Swiss attack

In Gaddafi's personal perception he defends his country against a Swiss expedition force. The Switzerland sent their troops in, to divide Libya, as an answer to Gaddafi's proposal to do so with their home-country. The Cyrenaika may be added to Egypt, Tripolitania to Tunisia and the Fezzan to Algeria. --2.201.173.236 (talk) 00:41, 20 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
