I propose for deletion this paragraph as being extraneous to the this article's topic, seeing as nothing about Gibraltar is mentioned in it. The details should be adequately covered in the article on the Commonwealth War Graves Commission itself:
I have slightly rewritten the first sentence of the paragraph following that one to make it clear the memorial was created under the auspices of the then IWGC. Cloptonson ( talk) 19:40, 30 May 2014 (UTC)
I've just been discussing the general article Cross of Sacrifice (on the talk page over there, I raise the same concern that was expressed above - I agree with the concern that too much extraneous background detail is provided in this article). One major error I noted on reading through this article concerns the original location of the Cross of Sacrifice. The Cross of Sacrifice was originally in the cemetery and only moved to its current location in the 1940s. This is stated here at the CWGC page for the cemetery (the CWGC page on the memorial, used here, says nothing on this). The article gets things very wrong at a couple of points because of this error. The paragraph starting 'The location of the Gibraltar Cross of Sacrifice outside North Front Cemetery is uncommon' needs to be rewritten. I'm going to remove it for now.
