Series[edit]

The opening sentence of this article states that "The 1987 Giro d'Italia was a cycling competition and the 70th event in the series, one of cycling's Grand Tour races". "Series" is a rather odd way to describe the history of the Giro, and I have never heard people involved in cycling use this term to describe the history of a single race. More common would be to speak of the 70th edition of the race. Cordless Larry (talk) 11:03, 21 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I've changed the wording - hope that's OK. I'll request that the paragraph on the main page be changed too. Cordless Larry (talk) 13:40, 21 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Cordless Larry I'd go with something like edition. Series to me is something you'd use to describe rounds of the World Tour...XyZAn (talk) 16:18, 21 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks, XyZAn. I'm glad you agree. I've already changed it in the article, and had it changed on the main page. Cordless Larry (talk)
I'm pretty sure one review, either during GAR or FAR had me change it from edition to series. Disc Wheel (T + C) 11:48, 1 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
