Talk:Ludlow Castle

A note
It Is a great place with wonderful scenery.It has fantastic views that strectch pasted Ludlow itself. GO AND VISIT IT NOW!!!'''


 * Aside from not understanding what "strectch pasted" is meant to mean, this isn't the place for a tourism advert. The last two paragraphs of the article need serious work.  The next to last para is weak and begs embellishment, the last para requires legitimate references for its claims and the final sentence is meaningless.  I'm commenting these out.  Can someone please fix these? Canonblack 16:58, 25 January 2006 (UTC)

Proposed change to citation style...
I'm looking to do some further work to expand this article over the coming months. Before starting though, I'd like to propose a change to the citation style. The current style uses long references, e.g. "Coplestone-Crow "The End of the Anarchy to the de Genevilles" Ludlow Castle pp. 35–36". I wish to propose using the harnvb template short citation system throughout, backed up by the "cite web" template as appropriate; the previous example would appear as "Coplestone-Crow 2000, pp. 35-36" under this approach, for example, linked to the relevant item in the bibliography. I personally think that short citations for articles with lots of citations, particularly from edited volumes, are easier to read and to edit. Such a change requires prior consensus on this talk page, as per MOS:CITE, of course (Nev, just to alert you in particular, as your considerable expansion of the article in 2012 established the current style!).

NB: if the consensus was to stay with the current style, I would look to carry out the expansion work anyway, using the current citation style. Hchc2009 (talk) 06:08, 18 October 2014 (UTC)


 * It was only ever half finished anyway! The current system isn't my usual style; my own preference would be for the shorter references, but that's partly because it's always been the style I've defaulted to. It was formatted to fit into the broad arc of Ealdgyth's articles, such as Josce de Dinan. I have absolutely no objection to changing the citation style or sticking with the current one, but I've pinged Ealdgyth in this comment so she knows about the change.

 * Not a problem for me - I actually didn't have this article watchlisted. Ealdgyth - Talk 12:35, 18 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Clearly a go on this, and thanks for asking. Johnbod (talk) 14:17, 18 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Done. I've now got some of the older articles as well, so will make a start on the expansion next. Hchc2009 (talk) 08:00, 1 November 2014 (UTC)

Expansion...
...I've gone through and expanded the article a bit, and added maps etc. It will need a decent copyedit etc. I suspect. Hchc2009 (talk) 11:20, 5 December 2014 (UTC)
