Health And Safety Act 1974

Possible repost. Was just G12'ed a few minutes ago as copyvio but seems to have been rewritten. Still not notable, and it has a sig in article space. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • ^{(Broken clamshells•Otter chirps)} 13:13, 2 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I got the point; you don't need to use caps lock. If you can prove its notability, please let me know. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • ^{(Broken clamshells•Otter chirps)} 13:18, 2 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Comment as to notability (mentioned in the nomination) this is one of the most significant and notable acts relating to the workplace in British history. DuncanHill (talk) 13:38, 2 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I came here to say the same thing. This is a notable piece of legislation. Clearly sholuld be merged to the correct title. Theresa Knott | The otter sank 13:48, 2 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to the existing article Health and Safety at Work etc. Act 1974. To the article's creator, User:Jamez21: threats and personal attacks like this one[1] are completely unacceptable. Nsk92 (talk) 14:11, 2 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- True but he's been told that on his talk page already. Let's not newbie bite. Theresa Knott | The otter sank 14:57, 2 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

User:Jamez21 is not a newbie: he has been editing Wikipedia since March 2007. Nsk92 (talk) 15:02, 2 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

He has less than 200 edits many of which are to his own talk page or the sandbox. Plus he's just a kid. His recent article edits show good faith in that he is attempting to write new article on important topics. Yes his comment wasn't good, but lets see it for what it was - childish footstomping. And he's already been warned about it. Theresa Knott | The otter sank 16:39, 2 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

REDIRECT TO... I mean, Redirect to Health and Safety at Work etc. Act 1974 per DuncanHill. DCEdwards ¹⁹⁶⁶ 17:37, 2 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
