Talk:Broomhill Pool

Initial

 * We are creating New Articles on lidos in the UK, see User:Lidos/to_do. We could re-write this page which does not conform to standard layout or some WP standards.--Lidos (talk) 15:28, 25 September 2009 (UTC)
 * This article has now been re-edited by User:Speedoguy an experienced WP editor I am collaborarting with on the above project.--Lidos (talk) 14:07, 23 October 2009 (UTC)

First person phrasing
In this case I made some minor deletions to take out some of the first-person phrasing. Though they are free to do so (as experts), there are often issues on Wikipedia with organizations and celebrities editing their own pages due to possible conflict of interest and perceived neutrality of the text. It should be kept in mind that Wikipedia is intended for encyclopedic entries and any article that starts to include promotional information or give a promotional tone tends to get edited back to something that appears more neutral.

It should be noted that any material added to Wikipedia must be in the public domain and this extends to any prose included; hence text that appears to be cut&paste from another website is considered a potential copyright issue unless the source website has an explicit waiver of copyright.

Members of The Trust are important expert contributors but cannot expect to have any real "control" over the article which may be edited by any Wikipedian at any time; this does not preclude reverting edits so long as there are reasonable efforts by all editors to reach a consensus - see BRD. In general, reliably sourced information cannot be excluded and information without reliable sources should not be included.—Speedoguy (talk) 12:41, 25 October 2009 (UTC)

Listed building
BP added to Listed_building, though someone may easily remove it.--Lidos (talk) 08:38, 26 October 2009 (UTC)

Infobox
The infobox template:Infobox swimming pool has been added to the page.

This is in the process of being added to a number of articles in category:Lidos. Your comments and suggestions for improvement are welcome.--Lidos (talk) 17:23, 15 November 2009 (UTC)


 * Please note that the current infobox has a lot of parameters available but consideration should be given to page readability and layout style when used. For these reasons of style the aim should be to add key data that are the most helpful to the layman reader without over-loading the infobox. The template has its own helpful guidelines included at template:Infobox swimming pool. For general information about how to use infoboxes please also refer to WP:Manual of Style (infoboxes).—Speedoguy (talk) 18:03, 15 November 2009 (UTC)

Including the latest developments
Please note that if you are adding the latest news about meetings or lobbying activities then the guidance of WP:RECENTISM applies. In particular highly detailed information or news that is likely to drift out of date should be written with one eye on the long term. Consider expressing the information in a form that will not need to be re-written in a year's time. I have made minor copy-edits to the text on this basis.—Speedoguy (talk) 15:51, 28 December 2009 (UTC)


 * I appreciate that wikipedia entries must be accurate, verifiable etc., but some of the changes made included poor grammar and weak sentence structure and others seemed simply to have been made for the sake of doing so.


 * The topic of "RECENTISM" is an interesting one, because what is the point of having an on-line encyclopaedia if it is not going to respond, for example, to major changes in an eight year campaign. Perhaps Speedoguy and others could consider if their alterations are really necessary before 'diving in'. Broomhillsaved (talk) 14:08, 29 January 2010 (UTC)
