Very obvious tense mismatch spotted, in casual reading: "In the UK, most forms of outdoor advertising such as the display of billboards is regulated by the UK Town and County Planning system." => "... most forms ... are regulated by ..." (Also would ideally put "such as ... billboards" in parens or make it a commaed subclause, for flow purposes.) - But leaving it up to anyone else who wants to pass by, who has the wherewithall to do it. 89.243.19.27 (talk) 20:24, 20 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
