==Listed buildings in Rivington==
Excellent work. Ready for GA list in my view. You should nominate it. [[User:Dr. Blofeld| <span style="border:1px solid blue;padding:1px;"> <span style="color:#fef;background:black;">'''''Dr. Blofeld'''''</span></span>]]     <sup>[[User talk:Dr. Blofeld| <span style="font-size:x-small; color:black;">White cat</span> ]]</sup> 00:29, 17 July 2010 (UTC)
:A very good piece of work and nearly IMO ready for recognition.  But it's a list-article rather than an article and should be submitted as a list.  The problem is that there is no such thing as a "Good List"; you'll have to go for Featured List, and that would be appropriate.  I've had a bit of success in that area and would like to make some early suggestions for improvement.  First the dates don't sort properly.  I can see that you have put a lot of effort into this, but have a look and you'll see what I mean.  A minor point: you need to add a few non-breaking spaces to avoid splitting at the ends of lines; examples are Grade&nbsp;X, Xth&nbsp;century, and everywhere a word follows a number such as 21&nbsp;listed buildings.  I have suffered (enjoyed) some comments about the sort of references you have used.  You might be interested to read the debate at [[Wikipedia:Featured list candidates/Historic Chapels Trust/archive1]].  ''[[Images of England]]'' is now out of date and is not being updated; Listed Buildings Online contains advertising material (not really approved); so I've switched everything to [http://www.heritagegateway.org.uk/Gateway/ Heritage Gateway], which has up to date info (the same as LBO) and no adverts.  It's not easy to search until you're used to it.  If you have the ref nos (IoE), go into Advanced Search (bottom of the opening page), then hit the Resources button in the menu on the left, then put the ref no in the box at the bottom, then click on the Listed Buildings Online link (there should be one result, the one you want), then use that URL.  For the publisher etc you can copy what I've done in [[Historic Chapels Trust]] (as I was advised [[User talk:Peter I. Vardy#Listed buildings links|here]]).  Sounds complicated but once you are in the rhythm it works well.  Good luck; let me know if you nominate it.  I have found the reviewers on FLC kinder than those on FAC! (If you want to reply I shall be watching this page.) --[[User:Peter I. Vardy|Peter I. Vardy]] ([[User talk:Peter I. Vardy|talk]]) 09:11, 17 July 2010 (UTC)

::(Copied from [[User talk:Peter I. Vardy]] to keep the discussion in one place) Hi again, thanks for your comments and advice, you're very kind,  but if I ever submit it anywhere but DYK then I have a fairly steep learning curve ahead. I'm also a complete wimp when it comes to submitting anything for scrutiny, the result of a very unhealthy working environment that I put up with for years.
::I will look at the article and see what I can do but I have no idea how to make the dates sort, perhaps I should just make the table unsortable. As far as the refs go I have read the debate you pointed me to, and well, some of the refs I have used I simply can't find on [[Images of England]] or Heritage Gateway, yet. (Does the ref have to be so long?) This will take much longer than you might imagine. : -) --[[User:J3Mrs|J3Mrs]] ([[User talk:J3Mrs|talk]]) 20:01, 17 July 2010 (UTC)

*I can't quite make sense of this, from the lead: "Its barn and the barn at Great House Farm were renovated, converted, and used for catering for the early tourist industry by Jonathan Simpson for William Lever in 1904, a function they retain today." Did Jonathan Simpson use the buildings for the tourist industry, or did he do the renovation and conversion?

::I'm prepared to have a go at making the dates sort properly and doing the refs (the latter is not much more than copy and paste + add a bit).  Assuming your permission, I will copy the list and refs (not the lead) into one of my sandboxes.  If you like what I have done, it can be copied back into the list.

== [[Belle Vue Zoological Gardens|Belle Vue]] ==

There are so many aspects to this story, it's hard to organise them all. You've picked up on one of the most important I think, that Belle Vue was initially a venue for the middle-classes, but quite soon tried to attract the workers as well, especially after the racecourse was built and trains began to arrive. I've come across something that I think is quite bizarre; the outdoor wooden dancing platforms are bizarre enough, but people were outraged because men often danced on them with other men, as contemporary photographs clearly show. That's full-clinch dancing I'm talking about. [[User:Malleus Fatuorum|Malleus]] [[User_talk:Malleus_Fatuorum|Fatuorum]] 01:18, 19 July 2010 (UTC)

:Someone's been busy! When you mentioned the article I thought copyedit, this is something else. Manchester men, what are they like? No busom to busom there then? I like what you've done so far, not so much a list and not so bitty. Are you going to move some more, out of WWII for instance? I've seen the elephant & toll bridge painting in Manchester Art Gallery, it was featured in a rather nice exhibition called "Manchester Attitude" or something similar, a couple of years ago now. I'll snip away but leave the moving to you as you appear to have a plan.--[[User:J3Mrs|J3Mrs]] ([[User talk:J3Mrs#top|talk]]) 14:11, 19 July 2010 (UTC)

::I didn't think there would be so much to do either. My plan, such as it is, is simply to group the material by theme, rather than chronologically. So the zoo, the amusement park, exhibition halls, firework displays and so on. I haven't quite decided how to tackle that WWII section yet. A lot of it's obviously relevant to the zoo, and should probably be moved there. Hopefully as the article develops there will be natural places to put all the rest of that material as well, so the section can go. It sticks out like a sore thumb right now, and makes it look like nothing happened between the end of the war and the Forte takeover.

::::I think you must be right, that's got to be the Bobs'. As we can't date the image, it'll have to go I suppose. [[User:Malleus Fatuorum|Malleus]] [[User_talk:Malleus_Fatuorum|Fatuorum]] 15:20, 19 July 2010 (UTC)

::::::::There does need to be some rejigging done, I agree, as there's still a lot of stuff missing. Like the exhibition halls and what went on in there, the restaurants, concerts, the dancing I mentioned, the recurring fires and vandalism during the later years, the racecourse and Jennison's efforts to attract the working class. The problem with the image is that if we can't date it, then we can't make a credible claim for its copyright having expired. I've found one of the Speedway stadium though, on geograph would you believe, so I'll stick that in.

I'm starting to feel a lot happier about the structure of this article now. It's getting easier to see where to slot new material in, and what's missing. Don't worry about being dragged in front of the FAC firing squad any time soon though, we're quite a way from that yet. Besides, I'll be there to hold your hand, I've faced them before. :-) [[User:Malleus Fatuorum|Malleus]] [[User_talk:Malleus_Fatuorum|Fatuorum]] 19:03, 20 July 2010 (UTC)

:The structure is much, much better and the text is definately more readable. My mother told me today that I went there by train but though she at past 90 can remember I can only remember the elephant. I have also left my specs somewhere, so I'm struggling this evening. The whole of Chapter 11 in the Mackenzie book is very interesting and it analyses the social aspects, the evolution from pleasure gardens to pleasure grounds to theme park. The Halle orchestra played in the same place as the circus was held but I don't remember where I saw that. I suppose you do realise I have added very little to this article, only taken away.--[[User:J3Mrs|J3Mrs]] ([[User talk:J3Mrs#top|talk]]) 19:39, 20 July 2010 (UTC)
:I rather like this quote from Mackenzie but have no idea where it would fit. 
"The pleasure grounds provide a kaleidoscopic range of entertainments:from speedway and greyhound racing to 
Fascist and Communist Rallies; from zoological gardens and museums to the latest farground rides from America; from jazz and brass bands to religious meetings of every denomination."  --[[User:J3Mrs|J3Mrs]] ([[User talk:J3Mrs#top|talk]]) 19:49, 20 July 2010 (UTC)

::I have rather a Zen view, less is more, but the social aspects you mention definitely need to be covered. That's a good quote, I'm sure we can find a place for it. What I'm generally beginning to find difficult is to know when enough is enough for GA. Pretty much everything I've worked on recently has gone straight to FAC, in at least one case because I got bored waiting for a GA reviewer to turn up. This is such a wide-ranging subject though that it's bound to be tough{{spaced ndash}}you haven't mentioned this, why have you included that? Maybe it was a mistake even to attempt it, when the [[Manchester Ship Canal]] is still crying out to be finished off. [[User:Malleus Fatuorum|Malleus]] [[User_talk:Malleus_Fatuorum|Fatuorum]] 20:06, 20 July 2010 (UTC)

:::I know what you mean re "less is more", it's a battle I've had re [[Rivington]]. In that case I think the quote doesn't need to be in as it only introduces topics not already covered. It is a wide ranging subject but the coverage now is much clearer in the article. You can finish the Ship Canal next!--[[User:J3Mrs|J3Mrs]] ([[User talk:J3Mrs#top|talk]]) 08:54, 21 July 2010 (UTC)

I'm havering about whether or not to include an account of the greyhound racing stadium, as it wasn't actually ever owned by Belle Vue; it was just built on some land Belle Vue leased out to a third party. A bit like the hokey cokey, I've had it in, then out. On balance I think I'm inclined to say just a little about it, if only because many will associate Belle Vue with greyhound racing and may wonder why there's nothing on it. Do you have a view? [[User:Malleus Fatuorum|Malleus]] [[User_talk:Malleus_Fatuorum|Fatuorum]] 20:14, 22 July 2010 (UTC)

:It was the first purpose built stadium but I didn't realise it wasn't part of the set up.[http://www.gbgb.org.uk/HistoryofGreyhoundRacing.aspx] but it's up to you. I really like what you've done today:-)--[[User:J3Mrs|J3Mrs]] ([[User talk:J3Mrs#top|talk]]) 21:07, 22 July 2010 (UTC)
::It was on the Belle Vue site, so I'm slowly persuading myself that it's got to be included, no matter who owned it. I'm feeling a lot happier about the structure now; there's still a few gaps to fill, and some of it doesn't make sense, like Gerald Iles negotiating with the Tower Circus when he would still have been a schoolboy, but I'm beginning to think we're getting close now, to GA at least.

I'm sure you're sick to death of me mithering you about Belle Vue, but what's become apparent to me is that it's a pretty big topic, and entire articles could be be written about the amusement park, the firework displays, and God knows what else. Anyway, at least for the moment I've done what I can with it, so after I've rewritten the lead (later this evening with luck and a fair wind) I'm going to nominate it at GAN. Naturally, if it doesn't end up being listed, then I'll be blaming you. ;-) [[User:Malleus Fatuorum|Malleus]] [[User_talk:Malleus_Fatuorum|Fatuorum]] 18:08, 25 July 2010 (UTC)

Seen as I have put so much information into the page and when it was knocked back for not being at a standard to pass as a good article, due to the way things have been worded. I really wopuld like to get this article as i have said before to a decent standard and level of Good Article status and maybe featured article status one day?

Nearly every day an IP editor (I'm sure you know who it is) pushes their POV, poorly written sentences, or badly referenced sources. Early this month I found that by the time I'd undone or corrected those articles I either didn't have time to edit what I meant to do or become discouraged and gave up. I'm wondering if you have the same problem? – [[User:HLE|HLE]] ([[User talk:HLE|talk]]) 14:24, 31 July 2010 (UTC)

== Rudeness in edit notes ==

you edited out the latter part of a quote for your own reasons and stated 'removed irrelevant detail added by editor playing games' in edit comment in relation to my edit.  What is Playing Games in editing an article to ensure its correct. Why be so rude on your edits.  It is not what I expect of an editor at wikipedia  --[[User:Rovington|PL.-Snr]] ([[User talk:Rovington|talk]]) 16:18, 1 August 2010 (UTC)

::I find it laughable that a user who undid my edit saying, "Source does not support this statement" when it so obviously did, makes any remarks about my edits or me! The edit I made removed stuff that is irrelevant to the Rivington as it introduces trivia.

== Proposal to resolve ==

I have a proposal to resolve some recent crossing of swords, its seems that when I make an edit you state its in bad grammar and poor English. I do not claim to be at expert level in English. I do have specialist knoweldge of certain topics, one of which you have recently taken over as main editor, gatekeeper. Rather than have edit conflicts how about we both post a message to the discussion board proposing a series of changes / additions or corrections to the article and then we can both look at these and discuss them. Maybe if I was to post my suggestions there you could enter the parts that seem appropriate to the article with your edits improving grammar and likewise I will know where you are heading with the article and where other editors may also wish to comment on the direction and content of the article. Where my grammar may not have been at best maybe correcting the grammar would be more appropriate than deleting or undoing almost every edit I make.  I do think it would be better to stick to talk pages on this subject and open up dialog. --[[User:Rovington|PL.-Snr]] ([[User talk:Rovington|talk]]) 04:26, 7 August 2010 (UTC)


I might take your proposal seriously if you had not already:
* falsely accused me of making personal attacks, which you refuse to substantiate
* deleted half the talk page discussion including comments from me and other editors 
* made edits since this proposal
* edited from numerous IP addresses to push your own pov leading to pages being semi-protected at the suggestion of User:HLE
* accused me of stalking
I have tried in the past to have a dialogue with you, but you have deleted the talk page, and your own talk pages, so I got on with it.--[[User:J3Mrs|J3Mrs]] ([[User talk:J3Mrs#top|talk]]) 08:53, 7 August 2010 (UTC)

There is confusion with the beginning of [http://www.british-history.ac.uk/report.aspx?compid=51227#s8 this] reference for Quarlton which does not make sense "''QUARLTON, a township, in the chapelry of Turton, parish and union of Bolton, . . . ''". Quarlton and [[Turton Urban District|Turton]] were separate townships. And any township with a [[chapel-of-ease]] were referred to as [[chapelry|chapelries]]. Also from 1866, all townships automatically became civil parishes, including Quarlton.[http://www.visionofbritain.org.uk/relationships.jsp?u_id=10376592&c_id=10001043] Quarlton was right next to Turton, and so I would imagine the inhabitants of Quarlton worshipped at the chapel in Turton. I'm sure the authors have made a mistake thinking Quarlton was in the chapelry of Turton.

Hi, After having  spent  100s of hours translating  this from  the fr.Wiki, we're left  with  an  unwieldly  article that  duplicates much  of the stand-alone main  articles about  the individual members of the family.,  and I  feel  rather responsible for tidying it up. I've had another stab at it  today. I notice you  have also  had a go  at it and I  would welcome any  further contributions you  can make to  slimming  it  down by  transferring  stuff to  the other articles. I've made a sub talk  page 'workshop' page that  can be used to  park  stuff that  is in  progress.

Hi!

I have just been reading your remarks on the talk page of this article with some interest, as I have been contributing to the French article, and we are currently in the process of reviewing and reshaping it.

So I get you right, could you be more specific with your statement: "The structure of this article is quite bizarre, it jumps about and frequently repeats itself. I really dont think it necessary to have two separate sections on each of the sisters"? I am not quite clear in particular what these "two specific sections on each of the sisters" are referring to.

Just a few examples of what you mean exactly would help a lot. Thanks! --[[User:Azurfrog|Azurfrog]] ([[User talk:Azurfrog|talk]]) 12:05, 1 September 2010 (UTC)

I think this [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Bront%C3%AB_family#French_article_on_the_The_Bront.C3.ABs], (it was previously designed so as to ensure that each section is autonomous), says it all.

: The article states, "Many of the original parishes, townships and local areas are named after the families that owned the land between the 11th and 18th century." Should it not be as in other areas." Many of the original parishes, townships and local areas gave their name to the families that owned the land between the 11th and 18th century.?
