Polishing "The Demotion of Pluto"
Gnomon - time to move on Started conversation Jun 1, 2012
Hi GB.
I'm doing the final polishing on "The Demotion of Pluto" at A87753892. I've come across this phrase which puzzles me:
"However, the transition for demotion of Pluto was nowhere near clear-cut."
I'm not sure what you mean by "transition" here. It sounds as if you intended to say something different, such as "the case for demotion".

Hi Gnomon 
I meant transition as in: the passing of one condition to another" but if you think it sounds wrong then by all means change it

I thinking it would read better as:
"However, Pluto's transition from being a planet was nowhere near clear-cut."
Would you be happy with that?
