Talk:Cockatoo Island

message: The text for Fitzroy Dock at some point said "The Fitzroy Dock was lengthened in 1870 and 1880" (two specific years), but this has since been changed to "The Fitzroy Dock was lengthened in 1870-1880" (a range). While it does seem odd that it would take 10 years to extend a dock by 49 metres, the Fitzroy Dock pages also states that before 1890 "Fitzroy was itself twice lengthened (by free labour) from the original c.96 metres to the present c.145 metres." which implies once again that it was lengthened twice. Without having the book referenced, and without a comment along with the page change, it is impossible to know whether the statement should be corrected to "The Fitzroy Dock was lengthened in 1870 and again in 1880" or "The Fitzroy Dock was lengthened over the course of ten years from 1870-1880". These are very different statements of fact. It would seem on the evidence above that the intent of the original statement should be reverted and possibly replaced with my first suggested text.
