Ah, you're right. I did actually click that link but something about the way that article is written made scanning for the specific thing I was after while tired very difficult.

I'll re-evaluate this perception after I've slept, but it feels like key facts are buried in storytelling in a way I don't see often on Wikipedia. Could just be me, I'm not sure.

Edit: I think what I'm describing is a textbook example of a buried lede.



I agree with you, it's overwritten. Would be interesting for a Wikipedia editor to explain how this tourist-history style differs from the accepted Wikipedia style.


I had similar thoughts when reading the article. It's written in a quite an unusual storytelling style without clearly summarizing the key points.
