Johnwhelan is the account name.  Unfortunately I have made a fair number of
edits.  The concern is I'm not comfortable that all of these meet the new
standard but I'm unsure which ones do and which don't.  I'm happy to reenter
data  following the new guidelines.  I'm not happy to have some one else say
don't worry about it.

Thanks John
