And Then There Were None
We seem to be in something of an edit war over this article. If I make it clear what my reasons are perhaps we can settle the matter amicably. My problem is the changing tenses of your sentences. As an example I quote two sentences which begin one paragraph. You wrote:
 * "Ethel Rogers screamed and fainted and they carried her to the drawing room."

Then you followed this up with…
 * "Phillip Lombard notices that there is a door leading to an adjoining room."

If you compare the two sentences you will see that the first one is in the past tense and the second in the present tense which is against all the rules of English grammar. I'm again reversing this change in order that the standards of Wikipedia are met but if you would like to examine your contribution, correct it and re-submit, I'm sure all will be fine. Best regards.--Jtomlin1uk (talk) 09:04, 23 March 2009 (UTC)


 * Okay, I tried the diplomatic approach but that didn't seem to work. We'll go down the enforcement route with the level 1 vandalism warning:--Jtomlin1uk (talk) 14:05, 23 March 2009 (UTC)
