Is it necessary to include customs about a church?

Fact Totton - Defined as Original Village of Totton. Not Calmore, West Totton, Hounsdown, Netley Marsh, Cadnam, Winsor, or any other area now known as Totton. This definition of Totton has a secondary school called Testwood. Hounsdown (note the spelling - yes a test)is not considered to be in Totton by true locals. Concede to Benshade council covers both areas and both schools. Not intended as vandalism

I will post a new entry for Totton as we will never agree.

-Please sign your comments using 4 ~

-I have referenced the sources for Totton having two secondary schools. (http://www.totton-and-eling.demon.co.uk/S.htm)

-Both Testwood and Houndsdown are areas within 'Totton and Eling' (This being the Totton and Eling Civil Parish - The area covered by the Town Council)

-I agree Houndsdown was built after Testwood, to cater for the overflow and surrounding area catchment (at the time). It was not build solely for the Houndsdown area (which is tiny) as you seem to imply, but for the whole area including Totton.

-I also agree that historically pupils expelled from one, attended the other by default. This happened both ways - Testwood to Houndsdown and Houndsdown to Testwood, but this has no bearing on where they are. In fact it indicates that they are that they for the same catchment area - Totton and area.

-I have referenced articles to show that they are both in Totton.

-I believe your 86.7.65.222 edits were POV and unconstructive (which in wikipedia can be considered vandalism).

-My family has also lived in the area many years, giving me local knowledge, but wariness that I should remain NPOV on articles.

-I attempt not to have bias and have (hopefully) shown my changes to be referenced fact.

-Please read Wikipedia:No personal attacks and Wikipedia:WikiProject Countering systemic bias. Please remove your unhelpful title and final comment. Ben 19:53, 3 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I have renamed this section to avoid attacking any particular users. Please, if there is a problem with the article discuss the facts, not editors. Discuss the content, discussing editors is not helpful. Wikipedia:No personal attacks elaborates.--Commander Keane 20:21, 3 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
