Road Network

Hi K, just wanted to say it's clear you've been taking more care putting your thoughts into words here. I did make some changes to this new section but they were pretty minor in comparison to usual and overall it was pretty well expressed.

Regarding "being a primary destination in Scotland", I left that in but with {{clarifyme}} as I'm not sure it adds much and maybe strays a little from NPOV. There are many destinations in Scotland which are more demonstrably of a primary nature, but if you can cite statistics or a quote to back it up that'd be fine.

yep, that's fine. actually, before i was going to start writing the sub-section, i was going to find a source for Kirkcaldy's primary destination but i never found anything which does make me feel a bit skeptical even making a slight mention of it. i thought this was going to cause a little bit of bother, but i'll see if i can find any references elsewhere or otherwise i will delete what is appropriate Kilnburn (talk) 00:04, 28 February 2008 (UTC)

Waterfront Develpment

I put the {{clarifyme}} tag on the sentence "Since January 2008, the development has been downgraded[clarify] and is being considered by Fife Council.". You keep removing it without clarifying it, despite my query "Do you mean "the development plan has been scaled down" perhaps. To talk about a development that doesn't exist yet (and potentially may never exist) as being downgraded is nonsensical. Do you mean the plan is being downgraded? I suggested using "scaled down" since "downgrade" may have connotations of belittling it. Also, you haven't cited this. The citations at the end of the paragraph do not address this aspect. I'm trying to be helpful in patiently addressing each problematic part of your edits but you are making it difficult by doing things like this, just removing a tag without addressing it.

yep that's what i mean, "the development has been scaled down". sadly, i have been unable to find a reference that the cinema will be 8-screen but i did read it in the Fife Free Press recently. i might of had a reference, but since i deleted the previous info, i might have lost it, just to let you know Kilnburn (talk) 20:03, 20 February 2008 (UTC)

oh dear! i decided to obmit a lot of the Waterfront development since i feel it is getting out of hand. that's why i cut it right down. we don't need all this info. that's all we need to know (and also to ensure what is happening right now with it is most important of all). i might need to repharse the sentences and if again, you're not happy, then let me know. after that, it might be worth a mention on the Kirkcaldy article to see what others think.

it's been dealt with. see above Kilnburn (talk) 20:43, 24 February 2008 (UTC)

Berwick upon Tweed

Good edits. However, I think the Pevsner quote should stay in, if only to justify your "great architecture". --Rodhullandemu (Talk) 18:58, 28 February 2008 (UTC)

well, that's all right. thank you. my first venture beyond Kirkcaldy. i have been a visitor to the town many times (if only to go to a fish and chip shop opposite Co-op and a visitor to both the Morrisons and McDonald's!)

i have though started a new section entitled "Berwick Town Centre" with very little info but i hope to get this up and running fairly soon. also, from reading an article about the town on BBC News, i wish to include another reference concerning the English status.
