"distinct, and precise"
The first sentence reads "The Maya calendar is a system of distinct, and precise calendars and almanacs..." do the words "distinct, and precise" add anything to the article? Of course the calendars are unique so they have to be distinct. Isn't it redundant to use the word "unique"? As far as precise goes, the Long Count, Tzolk'in and Haab' only count a number of days as integers so they are precise but isn't this also redundant? The astronomical observations in the supplementary series are precise (carefully observed) but not accurate (which is what I think the editor intended) by modern standards. Don't these adjectives make the sentence wordy? Wouldn't removing these adjectives be more concise and better style? Senor Cuete (talk) 17:25, 18 February 2010 (UTC)Senor Cuete
