Completed Kingdom of Spain (Napoleonic) (737) *O - I copyedited the first half of this article and took credit for those words only. The second half is a machine translation and needs dual fluency attention, not a copy edit. I re-tagged it accordingly and removed the copy edit tag. If that's not OK, I trust one of our fearless GOCE leaders will correct my correction. No problem.
