Comments That's it for a first run through, so it's on hold. The Rambling Man (Stay indoors, stay safe!!!!) 14:15, 22 April 2020 (UTC) Bingo, good work, not going to die on a hill for cafe, so I'm happy to promote this, nice piece of work. Well done.

 * " south coast of the United Kingdom." yet infobox has it Brighton, England.
 * made it England Mujinga (talk) 08:02, 23 April 2020 (UTC)
 * No need to link major geographical entities like United Kingdom (if it stays).
 * ok, England not linked Mujinga (talk) 08:02, 23 April 2020 (UTC)
 * "for huge dinner " huge isn't particularly enecylopedic in tone.
 * we are talking over 7,000 people so i feel "huge" is justified, but i could change to "large-scale" as in the text if you prefer Mujinga (talk) 08:02, 23 April 2020 (UTC)
 * I don't doubt the magnitude, just the tone. large-scale works for me. The Rambling Man (Stay indoors, stay safe!!!!) 08:41, 23 April 2020 (UTC)
 * changed Mujinga (talk) 10:35, 23 April 2020 (UTC)
 * "cafés" no accent required, we've appropriated that word in English for some while now.
 * in British English I would argue either is fine
 * Well cafe is about ten times more prevalent and I'm not sure why we'd opt for a non-English variant. The Rambling Man (Stay indoors, stay safe!!!!) 08:41, 23 April 2020 (UTC)
 * i'm not sure if it's exactly how i see it but Cafe (British) makes a distinction between café and cafe/greasyspoon/caff. Diacritical marks (only an essay, not MoS) says both versions are ok Mujinga (talk) 10:35, 23 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Non-breaking space before ellipsis.
 * fixed, i think Mujinga (talk) 08:21, 23 April 2020 (UTC)
 * fixed better now Mujinga (talk) 10:35, 23 April 2020 (UTC)
 * "on the Steine " overlinked.
 * fixed Mujinga (talk) 08:21, 23 April 2020 (UTC)
 * "in 1787, The Level " etc surely "the Level" per "the Beatles" etc.
 * yes this was a recent edit which felt a bit odd, i was unsure here since sources like the council use "The Level", looking around I don't see any hard and fast rule here on wikipedia so changed to "the" Mujinga (talk) 08:02, 23 April 2020 (UTC)
 * "50 years" personally would prefer fifty here.
 * per MOS:NUMERAL both versions are ok Mujinga (talk) 08:21, 23 April 2020 (UTC)
 * I know, but I'm just saying the numeral jars the flow. The Rambling Man (Stay indoors, stay safe!!!!) 08:41, 23 April 2020 (UTC)
 * yes true, coming soon after "four years later" i see what you mean, i've rejigged and lost the 50 Mujinga (talk) 10:35, 23 April 2020 (UTC)
 * "Formation and history" section heading, perhaps "early history" (as you have "recent history")
 * that works! Mujinga (talk) 08:21, 23 April 2020 (UTC)
 * "King George IV " overlinked.
 * fixed Mujinga (talk) 08:02, 23 April 2020 (UTC)
 * " the 8 acres" eight.
 * officially 8.05 so changed to that for consistency Mujinga (talk) 08:02, 23 April 2020 (UTC)
 * "nowadays" doesn't feel encyclopedic in tone.
 * yes, changed to "today" Mujinga (talk) 08:02, 23 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Park Crescent is overlinked.
 * fixed Mujinga (talk) 08:02, 23 April 2020 (UTC)
 * " Victoria " overlinked.
 * off with his head! fixed Mujinga (talk) 08:02, 23 April 2020 (UTC)
 * "Old Steine" overlinked (and suddenly Old)
 * fixed as above Mujinga (talk) 08:21, 23 April 2020 (UTC)
 * "scenes ... were" non-breaking space between scenes & ellipsis.
 * done, such a great quote! Mujinga (talk) 08:21, 23 April 2020 (UTC)
 * " mid- to late 19th" if you hyphenate mid, shouldn't you hyphenate late-?
 * agreed, then had a look around, seems fine for both to be unhyphenated Mujinga (talk) 08:02, 23 April 2020 (UTC)
 * " playground " overlinked.
 * fixed Mujinga (talk) 08:02, 23 April 2020 (UTC)
 * National Cycle route and buses mentioned in the infobox are not mentioned at all in the prose.
 * added to overview section Mujinga (talk) 08:21, 23 April 2020 (UTC)
 * "on September 1, 1984." date format inconsistent.
 * oops, fixed Mujinga (talk) 08:02, 23 April 2020 (UTC)
 * "and The Levellers" -> "and the Levellers"
 * fixed Mujinga (talk) 08:02, 23 April 2020 (UTC)
 * " skatepark " overlinked
 * it's linked in intro, overview and skatepark, so strictly the third mention should go but i'd like to keep it so skatepark is linked in its own section Mujinga (talk) 08:02, 23 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Ok, no worries. The Rambling Man (Stay indoors, stay safe!!!!) 08:41, 23 April 2020 (UTC)
 * "an elm tree" ditto, as is "Dutch elm disease".
 * fixed Mujinga (talk) 08:02, 23 April 2020 (UTC)
 * " boccia and pétanque" both.
 * fixed Mujinga (talk) 08:02, 23 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Could link sensory garden.
 * done Mujinga (talk) 08:02, 23 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Avoid SHOUTING in ref titles.
 * FIXED Mujinga (talk) 08:02, 23 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Spaced hyphen in ref titles should be spaced en-dashes.
 * sorry could you give me an example? i'm not sure what this refers to Mujinga (talk) 08:21, 23 April 2020 (UTC)
 * " LUC - Environmental " should be " LUC – Environmental " for example. The Rambling Man (Stay indoors, stay safe!!!!) 08:41, 23 April 2020 (UTC)
 * thanks, fixed for LUC and Cowley refs Mujinga (talk) 10:35, 23 April 2020 (UTC)
 * The single note could easily be integrated into the main prose.
 * good point, done Mujinga (talk) 08:21, 23 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Hi The Rambling Man thanks for the comments, I've addressed them all and queried a few. Mujinga (talk) 08:26, 23 April 2020 (UTC)
 * responses above. Cheers. The Rambling Man (Stay indoors, stay safe!!!!) 08:41, 23 April 2020 (UTC)
 * The Rambling Man replied, i wish i could go for to a greasy spoon for an allday breakfast now Mujinga (talk) 10:37, 23 April 2020 (UTC)
