== Chartwell IP editors ==

Hi. I am having trouble understanding the actions of the two recent IP editors at Chartwell - the 91. and the 2a01: ... possibly the same person. I'm sure you've seen their contribs and where else they have been active. it's not exactly proper vandalism but it does seem very strange and I think is cumulatively destructive, or they lead on to more problems, etc ... se T.E.Lawrence for example. I don't really get it and I don't have the stomach for a big battle. What do you think? Cheers [[User:DisillusionedBitterAndKnackered|DBaK]] ([[User talk:DisillusionedBitterAndKnackered|talk]]) 00:21, 25 January 2021 (UTC)

:No worries! Almost certainly the same editor, but we’ve rolled them back, and can do so again. As to their motivation, heaven alone knows.  [[User:KJP1|KJP1]] ([[User talk:KJP1#top|talk]]) 13:07, 25 January 2021 (UTC)


== Dorking ==

Hi {{ping|KJP1}} I am just picking up on the comment that you made on [[User_talk:SovalValtos|SovalValtos' talk page]] a week or so ago. Two editors have looked at the [[Dorking]] article and have very kindly given me feedback (their comments are on the [[Talk:Dorking|talk page]]). I wanted to ask your opinion on the next steps. Do you feel that the article is ready for [[WP:GAN]] or would it be better if it went to a formal [[Wikipedia:Peer_review|peer review]] first? What would you advise? Thanks and best wishes, [[User:Mertbiol|Mertbiol]] ([[User talk:Mertbiol|talk]]) 18:33, 3 February 2021 (UTC)

:Hi both - great to hear from you and hope you are keeping well in my favourite corner of our locked-down country. And thanks Ghmyrtle for the excellent paper. That was a labour of love.

== Ham House ==

I see the excellent people at [[Ham House]] have put the article up for GAN. Do you fancy – and have you time for – reviewing it? You'd of course be better equipped than I am from the architecture/decor point of view, but I'm happy to do it if you're unavailable. Best wishes, '''<span style="font-family:Trebuchet MS;">[[User:Tim riley|<span style="color:# 660066">Tim</span>]][[User talk:Tim riley|<span style="color:#848484"> talk</span>]]</span>''' 16:31, 11 September 2021 (UTC)
:{{U|Tim riley}} - Yes, I think I will. But if you had the opportunity to review the prose as part of the GAN, that would be most helpful. All the best. [[User:KJP1|KJP1]] ([[User talk:KJP1#top|talk]]) 17:08, 11 September 2021 (UTC)
::p.s. {{U|Tim riley}} - I just had a thought. I did do a bit of work or this, which may preclude me from reviewing. I shall ask.

== Bridges ==

Hi KJP! Hope all is well with you. I happened to notice your [[Inglis Bridge, Monmouth|Inglis Bridge]]. It brought back memories of Monmouthpedia! I walked over it a few times and spent an afternoon with the Royal Monmouthsire Royal Engineers (the only doubly royal regiment in Britain!). I'm glad you've managed to find enough sources to put together an article. I wondered if you'd mind having a look at my latest project, the [[Old Exe Bridge]]. I based the structure on your outstanding [[Monnow Bridge]] article and used some of the same sources. I'd like to take it to FAC but I've never done an FA on a bridge or a mediaeval topic before so I was hoping you might have time to do a GA review, or just read through it and make sure it makes sense. Thanks! [[User:HJ Mitchell|<b style="color: teal; font-family: Tahoma">HJ&nbsp;Mitchell</b>]] &#124; [[User talk:HJ Mitchell|<span style="color: navy; font-family: Times New Roman" title="(Talk page)">Penny for your thoughts?</span>]] 16:55, 3 October 2021 (UTC)
:{{U|HJ Mitchell}} - Great to hear from you, Harry! I’m good thanks, and I hope all is well with you too. I should be delighted to have a look at the Old Exe Bridge. I am overdue on an FAC review of [[Ham House]] (see above), work continues bloody busy, and we’re off to Spain next week for our first holiday for a year, but if I can get to it before I go, I will. Assuming, of course, somebody else doesn’t pick it up in the meantime. If they do, I’ll still take a look prior to, and at, FAC. Sourcing the [[Inglis Bridge, Monmouth]] was actually easier than I anticipated. It is a curious coincidence that Monmouth has the only fortified bridge with a central gatehouse at one end of town, and the only Inglis Bridge in public use at the other. What a lot one does learn from Wikipedia. [[User:KJP1|KJP1]] ([[User talk:KJP1#top|talk]]) 17:57, 3 October 2021 (UTC)
::Thanks. Somebody else has kindly taken on the GA review but I'd still be grateful if you could cast an eye over it when you get chance. I'd spotted Ham House and it's on my (ever-growing) to-do list. I know a thing or two about work being busy! Spain sounds lovely, especially after all the rain we've had recently! I suppose it's not entirely surprising that a town at the confluence of two rivers would need bridges but you're right, it's an interesting coincidence that it got two unique bridges centuries apart!

== NIAH v NMS v RPS ==

Hiya. Following-on from our [[User_talk:Guliolopez#Tranarossan_House_or_Trá_na_Rosann_youth_hostel|recent discussion here]], I thought it might be helpful to note some [[Conservation_in_the_Republic_of_Ireland#Heritage_conservation|differences between heritage conservation types/statuses in Ireland]].

In [https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Costelloe_Lodge&diff=next&oldid=1065472755 this edit] the "NIAH number" (for Costello House) was added to the "national designation" field. This had two effects. One, it indicated that Costello House is protected as a [[National Monuments of Ireland|National Monument]] (it is not). And, two, it indicated that its heritage protection number (RPS or NMS) is number 30409101 (it is not).

To restate, the NIAH is not a record of protected structures. An entry in the NIAH doesn't indicate that the structure is subject to protection at a national level (as a National Monument) or at a local level (as a protected structure). And so that number (30409101) is not relevant for either.

The official [[list of National Monuments in County Galway]] is [https://www.archaeology.ie/sites/default/files/media/pdf/monuments-in-state-care-galway.pdf published here]. By the [[Office of Public Works|National Monuments Service]]. Costello Lodge is not listed. No NMS number.

The official [[Record of Protected Structures]] for Galway is [https://www.galway.ie/en/services/planning/planspolicy/gcdp2021/appendices/ published here]. By [[Galway County Council]]. Costello Lodge is listed. RPS number 734.

Please be careful not to use the NIAH website as indication of protected status (it isn't a record of protected structures) or to use the NIAH "numbers" as indicators of national monument status (as they aren't).

All the best. [[User:Guliolopez|Guliolopez]] ([[User talk:Guliolopez|talk]]) 17:01, 14 January 2022 (UTC)
:{{U|Guliolopez}} - Noted, and your somewhat exasperated edit summaries. I am sorry I am taking a little while to get my head around Irish heritage designations. I think I understand most of it now, the National Monuments Service lists National Monuments while Protected Structures are listed by the county councils. I am still a little puzzled as to what an entry in the [[National Inventory of Architectural Heritage]] (NIAH) '''does''' signify. It's not that it is a national monument nor that it is a protected structure, as you've explained. So what exactly does a building being recorded and categorised with a Reg No in the NIAH actually denote? Reading the article on the NIAH, it suggests the inventory is a record of “to be protected buildings and sites” [third line of '''Formation''' section]. Is it some sort of preliminary list of sites which ''may'' merit Protected Structure status? [[User:KJP1|KJP1]] ([[User talk:KJP1#top|talk]]) 11:49, 15 January 2022 (UTC)
::Hi {{u|KJP1}}. With apologies for any exasperation on my part (or my inability to temper it), I think the best way of explaining the NIAH is as [[:Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Kilbrogan House|per this recent AfD]] discussion. In short, and as you note above, the NIAH is a record of surveys. A review, as you suggest, of structures which ''might'' be considered (depending on the outcome of the survey) for protection. In short, the:
::* NIAH is a list of structures which have been ''considered'' for heritage protection. (Some of which have then been put forward for protection).
::* RPS is a list of structures which have been ''conferred'' with heritage protection. (All of which are therefore subject to planning restrictions).
::(I'd describe the NIAH as a "waiting room". But that kinda implies that all entries are progressed to the doctors office. Many are not progressed. Like those generic 1970s pitch pine phone boxes or ubiquitous 1990s aluminum post boxes we talked about. Which are typically not recommended for heritage protection by the minister or the council. Per the [https://www.buildingsofireland.ie/about-us/ NIAH website] "NIAH ''surveys'' provide ''the basis'' for the recommendations of the Minister for Housing, Local Government and Heritage to the planning authorities for the inclusion of particular structures in their Record of Protected Structures (RPS)." Perhaps more "funnel" or "sieve" than waiting room....)
::Cheers. [[User:Guliolopez|Guliolopez]] ([[User talk:Guliolopez|talk]]) 12:17, 15 January 2022 (UTC)
:::{{U|Guliolopez}} - No problem at all, I appreciate it can be frustrating when editors - in this case me! - mess up articles one is interested in. The explanation of the NIAH as a funnel is helpful - it cannot be taken as an indicator either of Monument or Protected status, but may be an indicator of potential notability. I shall try to reflect this in any further Irish buildings articles I may pick up. All the best. [[User:KJP1|KJP1]] ([[User talk:KJP1#top|talk]]) 12:46, 15 January 2022 (UTC)

== Would [[Kuzych v White]] qualify as a featured article? ==
Now that it's through the review process for DYK, do you mind if I ask you, as someone with a lotta stars:  would Kuzych v White qualify for Featured article, in your opinion?  or is it too law/primary sources dependent?  just curious if it's worth nominating? all these processes are very mysterious.  :)  [[User:Mr Serjeant Buzfuz|Mr Serjeant Buzfuz]] ([[User talk:Mr Serjeant Buzfuz|talk]]) 02:45, 2 April 2022 (UTC)
:{{U|Mr Serjeant Buzfuz}} - The subject matter is absolutely fine for FA and to me it’s a nice, comprehensive and well-sourced article. But I’m no expert on law articles. My go-to editor on matters legal was {{U|Kohlrabi Pickle}} but they are semi-retired these days so may not be able to respond with advice. Nonetheless, I’ve pinged them. My one piece of process advice is that DYK straight to FA is a big step. I used to suggest [[Wikipedia:Peer review]] as a place to get input from a range of editors - which is what an Featured Article Candidate (FAC) needs - but I think it’s a bit moribund these days. [[Wikipedia:Good article nominations]] is another possibility, and if you strike lucky with a strong reviewer, you can get a lot of valuable input. Of course, you can go straight to FA, but bear in mind that the process can be robust! All the very best with it and, if you do go to FA, ping me and I shall certainly review it. [[User:KJP1|KJP1]] ([[User talk:KJP1#top|talk]]) 05:40, 2 April 2022 (UTC)
:::Thanks for the info.  I'm tied up with a major project IRL at the moment, so if I do try the Featured Article approach, will be down the road a bit.  One thing that I assume I will run into is that the article depends heavily on court decisions, which in Wiki-world are apparently considered "primary sources".  As a result, I've had editors tag other articles I've worked on with a hatnote that a law article relies too heavily on primary sources.  Personally, I think that's an improper approach to legal decisions.  It puts a Supreme Court of Canada decision in the same category as a newspaper article, which just doesn't make sense to me.  Doubt it will change, though, so I'm not sure if it would be worth doing.  Will think about it!  Given the FA requirement for a stable article, maybe will just wait for half a year and see if anyone makes any major changes to it, or an edit war breaks out... If I do go ahead, will certainly ping you.  Thanks! [[User:Mr Serjeant Buzfuz|Mr Serjeant Buzfuz]] ([[User talk:Mr Serjeant Buzfuz|talk]]) 14:42, 2 April 2022 (UTC)

== Chiltern Court ==

If, as I infer, you are working on that edifice, I pass on two pieces of OR, one of which won't be of the smallest use but the other may be. The first is that circa 1972 I lived in the block next door and once crashed bang into poor old [[Wilfred Pickles]] emerging from Chiltern Court. He was uninjured, but gave me a withering look I can still feel in cold weather. Rather more to the point, blocks of flats of that era had their own restaurants, and the one at CC was reopened some years ago as a Wetherspoon pub, accessed via a modest doorway in the Baker Street façade next to the tube entrance. The place seems to have closed again, as far as I can see, which is a pity, as however much one may (or may not) abominate the proprietor of the chain, it cannot be denied that its refurbishments of old premises can be very good, and it was so here. A huge dining room with lavish decoration, handsomely restored. It may also, perhaps, be of use to note a minor detail that is well documented: when [[Arnold Bennett]] was mortally ill in his flat there, the authorities put down straw to deaden the noise of passing traffic - an old custom of which this is the last known incidence: see Pound, Reginald (1953). ''Arnold Bennett: A Biography''. New York: Harcourt, Brace.

:::I don't know that "mansion block" is the first term that comes to mind. To me it conjures up something more obviously domestic than a whacking great building on three sides of the Baker Street station façade, which, unless you knew, one might take to be offices or other non-residential spaces. I think "block of flats" is more neutral and possibly safest, but what do I know? If you prefer "mansion block" I shan't be objecting and I very much doubt if anyone else will be.

:Chiltern Court definitely deserves coverage! Do let me know if you need anything. Railway architecture is one of my interests (and has overlapped with my war memorial a few times!), and I have a whole shelf of books on the subject. CC is in at least some of them. Don't know if either of you have any interest in [[User:HJ Mitchell/sandbox|old railway bridges]]?

::{{U|HJ Mitchell}} - That’s really kind. I shall do a Start tomorrow, and you can take a look and see what can be added. Railway bridges aren’t really my thing. Although the Victorians invented them, they generally lack the Burgesian exuberance, Gothic elaboration, and twiddly bits that I look for in a really first-rate piece of Victorian excess!

That former student's activities had nothing to do with the school, thus the only reason he is being mentioned in this article is because of his supposed notability; however, he has no Wikipedia article to show his notability.

Thank you today for [[The Tower House]], introduced (in 2015): "This article is about a Grade I listed French Gothic Revival style turreted house in Kensington, London, which was built by William Burges, a master Victorian architect. Built between 1875 and 1881, it was the residence of Burges before his death, and he hosted numerous parties at the house. After a period of neglect in the 1960s, it was restored and was purchased in 1972 by Jimmy Page, who has owned it ever since. The house was a real labour of love for Burges and some of the intricate detail he put into it was a fine example of his prowess and talent, not only as an architect, but as a furniture maker and jewel craftsman. Page himself has commented that he's still finding new things in the design work even today, such is the attention to detail. This has been extensively researched by myself, KJP and Gareth and we believe we've written a highly comprehensive article on the subject which does it justice."! - I think you did, and like to see it on [https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Gerda_Arendt&oldid=1092729989 my day]. - Which song would you give me? --[[User:Gerda Arendt|Gerda Arendt]] ([[User talk:Gerda Arendt|talk]]) 06:06, 12 June 2022 (UTC)
