Julian, the explanatory text will be missed by someone using the tab key to skim the links or using the link list. It's good practice to make sure links are self-explanatory and contain all the information the user needs to know.

Actually, I realized that the web page itself states that the documents
below are PDF documents so additional information may not be necessary.
However, that is a good suggestion and I will keep in in mind for other
instances where we post PDF documents.
