Is it the same as a steam donkey? [1] —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.32.182.181 (talk) 04:17, 16 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Use plain English

[edit]

Too much jargon in the text. "They created a 'flying fox'...", "...climbed up and headed the tree...". He average person doesn't know what that means. You can figure out from context that it probably means a wire cable-conveyor-type-thing and that "headed" means to cut the top of the tree off, but Wikipedia readers shouldn't have to try and decipher the text from context.
