I like very much the things you added to the article in general. I have a comment which I hope you will take on board, too. "Removing emphasis on UK" is not a goal. What is a goal is to increase the global coverage. It would be useful to the article if you were to add back any removed information and keep the broadened nature of the article, rather than remove information which, while specific to the UK, was not as broad as you would have wished.

 * I have added back a good part of the removals. One of the key things added back are a pair of citations you removed.  Since you have a new account I am assuming you are new to WP, and so do not realise the importance, yet, of citations.  This reflects in writing style.  To create a good article, every salient fact in it must be distilled from citable and cited sources.  Editors can and do remove on sight uncited material because they view it as original research however "obvious" the facts may seem.  I've illustrated this in the article by scattering fact tags in the text where, in my view, the text requires a citation.  You might like to read WP:Cite and to look at templates such as Cite web for more information.
 * I hope very much you find this to be positive and encouraging. WP is not a gentle place, and it is often a baptism of fire. Fiddle Faddle (talk) 11:59, 8 November 2008 (UTC)
