re changes
The importance of the house shouldn't be played down. Wakehurst Place is, first and foremost, a house, or country estate. There was a statement that the "Hall" rated an illustration in Nash's book. What does this means exactly? The fact that this is written with a Capital H for "Hall" indicates that it was the house itself that was illustrated, as many such houses are called "the Hall". If it was indeed the "hall" (the largest room) that was illustrated, then it needs a l.c. "h". Amandajm (talk) 11:54, 10 April 2011 (UTC)

National Trust pilot
Hello! During late June, July and some of August, I'm working on a paid project sponsored by the National Trust to review and enhance coverage of NT sites. You can find the pilot edits here, as well as a statement and contact details for the National Trust. I am leaving this message when I make a first edit to a page; please do get in touch if you have any concerns. Lajmmoore (talk) 08:46, 4 July 2022 (UTC)

Title
Shouldn't the title simply be Wakehurst, given it's no longer called Wakehurst Place? 2A02:C7C:6482:6600:2C49:6DCD:B2C9:AA5A (talk) 10:58, 20 July 2024 (UTC)


 * It should, yes. Murgatroyd49 (talk) 11:22, 20 July 2024 (UTC)


 * Probably, yes. However, before that happens, we could do with some clearer (sourced) information on when it was rebranded (and ideally why), and whether the change applies specifically to the mansion house as well as to the site as a whole. At the moment, the article uses both names, pretty indiscriminately, in a thoroughly confusing way. GrindtXX (talk) 11:40, 20 July 2024 (UTC)
 * Both the National Trust and Kew Gardens websites refer to it consistently as Wakehurst. The latter refers to the actual building as the mansion. Murgatroyd49 (talk) 11:47, 20 July 2024 (UTC)
