Original goal
"As of 4 May 2014, the charity has raised £3,183,116.50, more than triple the original goal." - the article goes on to state that the initial goal was £10,000, so surely the £3M+ total is more than 300 times the original goal........? -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 12:27, 14 May 2014 (UTC)
 * Yes: £10,000 was the original goal; £1m was the last goal. The donations keep on coming in (thanks people), but last time I checked the amount raised was £3,338,957.64, just over 333 times the original goal. Memassivbeast (talk) 13:58, 14 May 2014 (UTC)
 * I also think "original" implies that it was the first goal, so this might be a problem with clarity. Perhaps it's better to omit the phrase "more than 3 times the original goal" and simply talk about his goals later on in the article, in more detail? All Year Reindeer (talk) 15:41, 17 May 2014 (UTC)
 * Or just omit the word "original". Clearly, by any rational understanding of the meaning of the word "original", the original goal was 10k, not 1m -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 08:43, 18 May 2014 (UTC)
