 * On second thought, maybe if the explanation was missed - by a reader interested enough to add the above comment - it's worth promoting Antioch to topic position in a link (!) clause: " The link with Antioch is tenuous: .. " --'' SquisherDa (talk) 10:50, 14 March 2020 (UTC)

Antioch, again
I’ve tidied up the description of this place, as it was in a mess; it looks like someone misread the original description, and it’s been 'improved' upon since, without anyone actually checking a map to see if it’s correct. For the same reason I’ve deleted the opinion on the source book; it turns out Neptune, as a pilot book, knows what it was talking about, and the reason it disagreed with the article was because the article was wrong. I’ve also deleted the speculation about why it is named Antioch; that was added years ago, without any source to back it: So for all I know, it was named the Antioch channel because ships to the Middle east took that route, in contrast to ships to Brittany, which took the Pertuis Breton. Anyway, I trust everyone is OK with that. Moonraker12 (talk) 22:36, 16 July 2023 (UTC)
