	: Hmm. Regional issues are the bugbear of Wikitravel :). I would just (only just) agree with changing the article title back to East England. The problem with that though has already been identified - East England could mean (and does mean) areas way to the north of the scope of this article. East Anglia is normally only used to refer to Norfolk and Suffolk (with small bits of Essex and Cambs perhaps). Certainly not Hertfordshire and Bedforshire. But, do folks in Herts and Beds regard themselves as living in East England? That is far from certain. I just come down on the side of changing back to East England but it is far from obvious. To answer your question Shep - ''anyone'' can change this. But it is right that it is discussed first. --[[User:Burmesedays\|Burmesedays]] 11:29, 7 November 2009 (EST)		: Hmm.

	Not sure I know how to change a page without creating a new one and cutting and pasting. By the way, I see you have been working on the [[Broads]]. Perhaps this should be changed to Norfolk Broads given another meaning of "Broads"?
