The first of your links doesn't cover area at all, and the second one refers only to a perch rather than a pole or rod.

I suggest that these links are more likely to confuse people still further rather than enlighten them.

Tut, tut, silly me.

But why not give the direct link to the area page?  http://gwydir.demon.co.uk/jo/units/area.htm
