The article is too long

The article is too long, taking too much time to explain the navigation rules. It should be shorter and more to the point. — UnladenSwallow (talk) 12:24, 6 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

The article seems excellent to me, among the best on Wikipedia. I would expect significantly shortening it to make it harder to follow, harder to understand, and missing important context. But what did you have in mind? Can you be specific? –jacobolus (t) 14:54, 6 November 2024 (UTC)Reply
