Reliable Sources[edit]

Just don't agree these are WP:RS - promo/tourist magazines aren't - "ghost" is an extraordinary claim requiring extraordinary references (per guideline) - inclusion would be fine with attribution and contextualised as rumour of ghost according to..... Widefox; talk 12:42, 3 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I hear what you are saying, and probably don't mind removing these refs - I carry no brief for any of them. The point is however that there is no doubt that Londoners, including magazine authors, widely report the old tales of ghosts at 44 Essex Road, which is all that is being claimed here. Neither we nor the authors actually believe the tales, just as Walter Thornbury back in the nineteenth century didn't. But that people tell the tales is reliably and correctly reported by these sources and others. Chiswick Chap (talk) 13:03, 3 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Totally agree, and quite interesting a newer pub has such rumours - but such a rumour is common, not exceptional so stating as such requires less sourcing. Would be nice to know the origin, I reworded as "allegation" sounds legalistic, whereas we're talking rumours (promo nowadays for the tourists). Widefox; talk 13:19, 3 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Well done, it'll do for now. There are plenty of Wikipedians who like editing grammar and punctuation, I think we can leave it to them. all the best Chiswick Chap (talk) 14:56, 3 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Standardisation[edit]

Proposing to ‘move’ so that the borough name is used in the title. This seems to be the standard.AlasdairDaw (talk) 17:39, 24 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose There is no such standard. The current title is fine. Andrew🐉(talk) 22:12, 24 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Not needed. No such standard exists. AlasdairDaw should familiarise themselves with Wikipedia:Disambiguation. Edwardx (talk) 10:38, 28 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
