Powys
If the infobox is given, it doesn't give a link for "List of places in Powys". I have determined that this is due to a misplaced entry. There are two changes required to fix this: | Gwynedd = Gwynedd | Powys = Powys | Wrexham = Wrexham Cut the middle line to your paste buffer. The lines will now read: | Gwynedd = Gwynedd | Wrexham = Wrexham | Pembrokeshire = Pembrokeshire }}}} In between these, paste the line which was cut above. The lines will now read: | Pembrokeshire = Pembrokeshire | Powys = Powys }}}}
 * There are three lines reading:
 * There are two lines reading:

There are two other problems not directly related to the above. Both may be fixed by the insertion of non-existent lines. | Gwynedd = Gwynedd | Wrexham = Wrexham Insert one line so that they read: | Gwynedd = Gwynedd | Wrexham | Wrexham = Wrexham | Merthyr Tydfil = Merthyr Tydfil | Rhondda Cynon Taff = Rhondda Cynon Taff Insert one line so that they read: | Merthyr Tydfil = Merthyr Tydfil | Rhondda Cynon Taf = Rhondda Cynon Taf | Rhondda Cynon Taff = Rhondda Cynon Taff The last one was due to being incomplete; the first two (Powys and Wrexham), were due to.
 * there are two lines (as a result of the above changes) reading:

I have only checked Wales for internal consistency. There may be issues with other areas. -- Red rose64 (talk) 17:27, 9 January 2010 (UTC)

 * sorry, not done - not completely anyway. You added  (two "f"s) but it was   (one "f") that was required (see above) - the two "f" form was already in there. -- Red rose64 (talk) 20:01, 9 January 2010 (UTC)
 * ✅. By the way, I don't believe there is any requirement that the items in a switch statement should be in alphabetical order. &mdash; Martin (MSGJ · talk) 11:00, 10 January 2010 (UTC)
 * No, indeed there isn't - but when the same set of values comes up in two different switch statements, it's easier to check that they correspond if they're in the same order as each other.
 * BTW now that this is resolved, there is likely to be a further list of amendments coming soon: you can see the background for this at Template talk:Infobox UK place. -- Red rose64 (talk) 11:20, 10 January 2010 (UTC)

Disambiguation and redirect fixes
Edit protected — Richardguk (talk) 13:19, 4 September 2010 (UTC)
 * 1) Further to feedback at Wikipedia talk:Disambiguation pages with links, please replace the link in Template:Infobox UK place/local to disambiguation page Highland with piped link to Highland (council area):
 * 2) * &rarr;
 * (There is probably no need to remove the switch case in the lines before this, nor the switch case for the West Midlands dab page, as parameters with these dablinks can be fixed in the individual articles.)
 * 1) An extra switch case should be added for Middlesbrough as Middlesbrough (borough) now redirects there:
 * 2) * &rarr;
 * 3) Lancashire Police has moved to Lancashire Constabulary:
 * 4) * &rarr;
 * 5) East Sussex Fire and Rescue Service has moved to East Sussex Fire & Rescue Service:
 * 6) * &rarr;
 * 7) West Mercia Constabulary has moved to West Mercia Police and appears three times:
 * 8) * &rarr;
 * The above amendment is needed at three places in the wikicode (under Herefordshire, Shropshire, Worcestershire).
 * 1) List of places in West Midlands has moved to List of places in the West Midlands:
 * 2) * &rarr;
 * 3) "the City of Edinburgh" in the maptitle output should change to "Edinburgh" and also have a duplicate line deleted:
 * 4) * &rarr;
 * Note deletion of " " in the first line above and deletion of the fourth line above.
 * 1) "the City of Glasgow" in the maptitle output should change to "Glasgow":
 * 2) * &rarr;
 * Note deletion of " " in the first line above.
 * 1) List of places in Conwy county borough has moved to List of places in Conwy County Borough:
 * 2) * &rarr;
 * 3) List of places in Wrexham county borough has moved to List of places in Wrexham County Borough:
 * 4) * &rarr;
 * 5) List of places in Caerphilly county borough has moved to List of places in Caerphilly County Borough:
 * 6) * &rarr;
 * 7) Three bullet characters should be removed because they repeat bullets hardcoded elsewhere:
 * 8) * &rarr;
 * 9) * &rarr;
 * 10) * &rarr;


 * ✅ All changes done. If there are any problems drop me a note. Keith D (talk) 17:01, 4 September 2010 (UTC)


 * Thanks Keith. On point 5, you overlooked that the amendment was needed in three places. You've fixed the Herefordshire instance, but the ones under Shropshire and under Worcestershire need the same change:
 * &rarr;
 * Other than that, I think that's perfect. Sorry for the rather long list – perhaps I should have used a sandbox to save you some work!

Newport, Wales
A question has been raised at WP:HD, and following it through I see that the map title is shown as Newport where it should be Newport for Newport. Could someone edit this, please? --David Biddulph (talk) 05:39, 2 March 2014 (UTC)
 * Yes check.svg Done, some hours ago with, but I only just noticed this request. -- Red rose64 (talk) 14:06, 2 March 2014 (UTC)
 * That would be why I was confused... Meh, who am I kidding, I'm always confused... :p  — &#123;&#123;U&#124;Technical 13&#125;&#125; (t • e • c) 14:23, 2 March 2014 (UTC)

Not restricted to city, change Category:United Kingdom city infobox templates to Category:United Kingdom place infobox templates, actually matching the name. TerraCyprus (talk) 13:07, 21 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Yes check.svg Done – Jonesey95 (talk) 15:45, 21 September 2020 (UTC)

Jonesey95, thank you very much. Could you also change 'city' to 'place' for this subtemplate: Template:Infobox UK place/doc/London. And then Category:United Kingdom city infobox templates and Category:European city infobox templates could be speedy deleted. TerraCyprus (talk) 18:47, 21 September 2020 (UTC)
