Will review tomorrow.♦ Dr. Blofeld  17:35, 1 October 2016 (UTC)

Sorry for the delay I've been slumming it haha.


 * Lede
 * "Discussions around" -perhaps "Discussions for a war memorial in Northampton began" would fit better here
 * "Northampton is significant as one of the more elaborate town memorials " -vague as we do not yet know why it is elaborate or significant. Perhaps the lede should have more detail on the design?


 * History
 * "A large ecumenical service was held in the market square as the crowds, including 5,000 local schoolchildren, could not be accommodated within the church itself. " -needs rewording a little, perhaps something like "The large ecumenical service held in the market square was so large, with 5,000 local schoolchildren, that it could not be accommodated within the church itself".

Is there nothing more to say about the design?

Good effort, little to complain about.♦ Dr. Blofeld  15:17, 3 October 2016 (UTC)
 * Thanks very much for the review. See what you think of the prose changes; I'll try and add some more detail on the design tomorrow. HJ Mitchell  &#124;  Penny for your thoughts?  13:05, 5 October 2016 (UTC)

Yes, it looks good. A good, clean article, exactly the sort of content wikipedia needs. Will pass it once a little more is gleaned on design!♦ Dr. Blofeld  13:17, 5 October 2016 (UTC)
 * I've got another paragraph in mind for the design but it's already past my bedtime so it'll probably be tomorrow. HJ Mitchell  &#124;  Penny for your thoughts?  13:20, 5 October 2016 (UTC)
 * Apologies, real life intervened but I've been tweaking the design section. See what you think. I know the gallery looks awful at the minute; I'll have to ask for advice on the syntax to get the images large enough that they're actually useful.

Perhaps try a neat dual image like in the transport section of Sisimiut? Will pass once that's done, article looks great!♦ Dr. Blofeld  10:40, 8 October 2016 (UTC)
 * Thanks. See what you think now. HJ Mitchell  &#124;  Penny for your thoughts?  18:49, 8 October 2016 (UTC)

Looks spiffing old chap!
