Section heads[edit]

Because I doubt that WA Newspapers was in existence in 1855, I've rationalised the first section heading to "Published 1855-1955" and given similar treatment to the next. Anyway, I think it's more useful to relate these different papers to their historical times than company names. Bjenks (talk) 16:01, 29 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
