 * Add it in then!! Tweedle (talk) 20:22, 9 June 2024 (UTC)

The note is there to be resolved. I have not found a source to date. Hopping someone else will PaddyBasher

Location
I have removed the statement that Waltham Forest is regarded as being in the East End of London (along with Clapton, Forest Gate, etc). Waltham Forest is generally regarded as being East London - especially in light of its pre-1965 status as part of Essex. Furthermore, the contention in the article was not supported by a source, rendering it little more than one person's opinion

Schools
Replaced partial list of secondary schools with link to existing secondary schools list (no point maintaining two lists) - that probably needs updating. Most existing school articles are now in Category:Education in Waltham Forest, but need the more specific cats, like comprehensive, etc added. Will return sometime to fill in list of primaries (from education website). UTUYIGYHRITUE Overall still needs someone to go through it, check currency of links and data in table. If you have the time, feel free. Cheers. Kbthompson 10:35, 13 June 2007 (UTC)

IG8 postcode
An anonymous editor has twice removed IG8 from the list of postcode areas covering part of the borough, without offering any explanation. Streets in Waltham Forest with an IG8 postcode include Alders Avenue, Armstrong Avenue, Beechwood Drive, Bennington Road, Brookfield Path, Brook Meadow Close, Chingford Lane (part), Conyers Close, Crealock Road, Elm Grove, Forest Drive, Forest Mount Road, Forster Close, Frinton Drive, Galeborough Avenue, Gascoigne Gardens, Hale End Road (part), Harman Avenue, Henry's Avenue, Holly Crescent, Hollywood Way, Keynsham Avenue, Lichfield Road, Lodge Villas, Marion Grove, Mason Road, Mill Lane (part), Montalt Road, Montserrat Avenue, Nesta Road, Oak Hill, Oak Hill Close, Oak Hill Crescent, Oak Hill Gardens, Sky Peals Road, The Bridle Path, The Charter Road, Wood Lane, and possibly others. Please do not remove this information again. So far, I have regarded these edits as an honest mistake, but any further such edit will be regarded and dealt with as vandalism.

The Waltham Forest Theatre
This section reads like an advert followed by a newspaper article and needs to be completely rewritten (or deleted). Thryduulf (talk) 16:33, 17 June 2008 (UTC)
 * That's been toned down. One doesn't want to discourage them, but the previous version was over the top. I asked (in the edit summary) for them to put a link to the article, rather than reproduce it here. HTH Kbthompson (talk) 18:50, 17 June 2008 (UTC)

Waltham Forest London Borough Council
I can't see any link between this page and Waltham Forest London Borough Council. If I'm right, can anyone see an obvious way of inserting one? Alansplodge (talk) 20:41, 9 January 2012 (UTC)
