Stell Haggas
All the information in this piece is taken from Cricinfo and Cricket Archive which are clearly and correctly referenced. These are the sources which are always used to reference cricket articles such as this. Perhaps you could click on those links, check them out and remove those tags if they satisfy you? If they don't satisfy you then there's a few thousand other cricket articles which may need your attention. Nick mallory 13:38, 13 April 2007 (UTC)

You asked me to reply on your talk page, so I will. This is our discussion so far about the 'Stell Haggas' article. Nick mallory 14:11, 13 April 2007 (UTC)

Stell Haggis didn't play any tests or one day internationals so that template is not relevent. Moondyne made a comment on my talk page and I responded to him by clarifying what I thought he meant and then apologising. You didn't mention anything about the template used, you said the Stell Haggis article wasn't referenced, which it clearly was. I think your retort is a tad more aggressive than mine, but I'm a big boy. Anything else I can help you with? Nick mallory 13:59, 13 April 2007 (UTC)

While we're at it, could you point out where I described Stell Haggas as 'excellent'? I've reread my article and can't find that word at all. Thanks for removing the tags by the way. I guess that means I was right in what I said about the article being properly referenced? Nick mallory 14:02, 13 April 2007 (UTC)

Oh, and you didn't say anything about it being too short, you didn't actually leave a comment on the talk page at all. You merely tagged it as unreferenced and in need of wikifying, despite the fact that it's full of links. Cheers. Nick mallory 14:04, 13 April 2007 (UTC)

Please reply on my talk page Radio orange 14:08, 13 April 2007 (UTC)

ok. I will. Nick mallory 14:09, 13 April 2007 (UTC)

Hope we've sorted this out now. Have a nice day. Nick mallory 14:11, 13 April 2007 (UTC)

Thank You for NMfA - As I have to go urgently please put this on the page, oh, and I accept as well (I forgot!) - "I would just like to say a short appreciation notice to User:Radio_orange, I do do many of the things they noted but I also do more.

AfD nomination of The Green Quarter
I've nominated The Green Quarter, an article you created, for deletion. We appreciate your contributions, but in this particular case I do not feel that The Green Quarter satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion; I have explained why in the nomination space (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and the Wikipedia deletion policy). Your opinions on the matter are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Articles for deletion/The Green Quarter and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes ( ~ ). You are free to edit the content of The Green Quarter during the discussion but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion discussion. Thank you. Pit-yacker 20:05, 4 May 2007 (UTC)

User talk:CC2009
Thank you for warning this user for vandalism on Martin Luther King, Jr., however, I and another editor didn't see any vile racism from that user's contributions, and therefore agreed that your message was considered biting, and the  would be more appropriete. Now, in other situations, such as the contributions from Billynoors, that would be different, and I would have used the bv. If you are still think it was vile racism, you can find a forth party opinion, if you would like.--U.S.A. cubed 16:56, 5 May 2007 (UTC)

The Green Quarter
''Hello, thank you for contributing your ideas and comments on The Green Quarter, but I really don't see why you have such a worriment against the article. The numerous websites on search engines would seem to represent the scale of this development. Besides, you seem to keep referring to on the discussion page, "as far as I can tell". So unless you are the developer,s omeone who has a degree or similar in a building related subject, a structural surveyor of the site or simply a resident, then I see no reason for you to be so bothered about deleting it. R_Orange 13:38, 5 May 2007 (UTC)''

On a good article, I shouldnt need to say "As far as I can tell". The article should tell me exactly why it is notable. Wikipedia isnt meant to be a directory of every building development in the world, it just records ones that have some notability. For example Beetham Tower is arguably notable for its height and as such should get an article. If there is some notability then I am happy for the article to stay. However, at present the article presents no notability and I know of none either. Pit-yacker 17:52, 6 May 2007 (UTC)

''I feel frustrated, doesn't the number of websites when you search it signify anything? R_Orange 18:12, 6 May 2007 (UTC)''

Depends what the websites returned by the search are. I just quickly googled "Green Quarter" and the sites returned in the first 20 or so were mainly made up of a number of sites from various companies involved in the development, and estate agents trying to sell/let flats in the development. Notability could potentially take a number of forms, for example the size of the site, or something that makes it different from most other developments. For example, the fact CIS Tower generates large amounts of solar engery makes it notable. Pit-Yacker 18:53, 6 May 2007 (UTC)

Revision Revert
''I can see I have wrote twice on this talk page now, but this seems to be where I am ending up frequently quite recently. Please could you give me an explanation for reverting my revisions on this article. I don't see why they should have changed, so I'm perplexed as to the rationale. Thank You R_Orange 17:33, 6 May 2007 (UTC)''

Apologies. I'm confused to what I did myself. I think I must have edited an old version. I have now repaired the article. The intention was to Geo-tag, categorise, and remove the "They are out to get us" para and the list of subjects taught - if they taught something unusual that might be notable (Latin would be borderline, Ancient Greek perhaps) but the subsjects taught are no different to any other school. Pit-Yacker 17:45, 6 May 2007 (UTC)

''Because Barlow is a Specialist Science College is also offers specialist tutoring and lessons on Chemisty, Biology and Physics at GCSE level, should this be included? R_Orange 18:10, 6 May 2007 (UTC) ''

This should be mentioned in my opinion. But I think it should be stated rather than a rather long list of subjects. Adding to my original reply, I think I was editting an old version. I categorised the article sometime ago, and the categorisation had disappeared. I was looking back to see where the categorisation had been removed. Pit-Yacker 18:40, 6 May 2007 (UTC)

Manchester
Please could I ask why you reverted the edit I made regarding Manchester, I clearly stated that I inserted the table but now seems useless since there is alot more to Manchester than just the South of it, if we did a section every village/towns in Manchester then we would have to create another article for it. Besides it seems that other editors are keen to edit out as much as they can out of the article due to it enduring length, as shown in the template at the top of the page. Regards. R_Orange 12:54, 7 May 2007 (UTC)
 * In Manchester, perhaps these village names seem important to me, because I have lived in south Manchester for 40 years and I know the places named very well. Anthony Appleyard 16:48, 7 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Yes, I'm sure they seem important to you, but since they no longer substitute as a worthy piece of information on the page, there existence is pointless. The page is clearly over-written and needs cropping, so wouldn't this removal be an effective way of doing so? R_Orange 18:35, 8 May 2007 (UTC)


 * South is the only way that the City of Manchester extends away from its central area to the countryside around. That is why there is a village list for south Manchester only. The other directions are occupied by Trafford, Stockport, Salford, etc. Anthony Appleyard 22:36, 8 May 2007 (UTC)

R_Orange 19:25, 8 May 2007 (UTC)
 * No, that is impossible on a technical level. --Deskana (AFK 47)  19:26, 8 May 2007 (UTC)

Population of Manchester at List of English Cities by population
The list is not a list of local authority populations, but of Urban Sub-Areas as defined by the Office for National Statistics. An Urban Sub-Area is that area of a conurbation that is defined as being a single settlement, and does not follow local authority boundaries.

Some cities have expanded outside their local authority boundaries (such as Stoke on Trent or Wolverhampton), some are smaller than their local authority boundaries (compare Leeds, the city, with City of Leeds the local authority), and some do both in different areas (like Birmingham).

Manchester is not helped by being surrounded with other towns (or city in the case of Salford!), so its figure will always seem low. If you look at Greater Manchester Urban Area, there's a link to the relevant map showing the urban sub-areas.

Please don't alter the figures until the 2011 census figures are available! Fingerpuppet 15:09, 1 June 2007 (UTC)

Rfd and largest settlements in England
I have put your original template name, which is now a redirect to its new name, up for WP:RfD. This is because it was misleading and i have explained why there. Please also see User talk:Superbfc.

 * Thats okay. Please check out the RfD as i have also made a suggestion on something else to do with the template. Redirects for discussion/Log/2007 July 15. It should also have included any Northern Ireland settlements, not just Scotland and Wales. Simply south 19:44, 15 July 2007 (UTC)


 * But it is the UK, not just Britain. I am not sure what to do at this point. I don't want to sound bad but now this is more of a mess than before now, i feel. If it is okay, for clarity and other reasons, could you move this to Template:UKLargestSettlements, or if you don't mind, can i?

Re:User_talk:Mike33
Although I welcome imput from every editor on my conduct, it really isn't a great idea to stumble half way through a debate and ask another editor to desist. The editor who's page I left a note on is a possible sock, he left 10 references on the Talk:Manchester page which had nothing to do with anything. It was disruptive and it was a nuisence.

Imagine me posting 10 points of Wikipedia order which have nothing to do with anything? Would you be happy? I wasn't happy and I gave him a big red hand, I am getting tired of all of these socks. I want to make Wikipedia good and am quite prepared to bend to do that. If other people have other agendas fine. There is nothing in my conduct which would contribute a warning from you, and unless you were specifically asked to reprimand me, or stumbled accross my comments, then I would consider carefully what you are doing. Your contribution logs show that we have never edited similar/same articles. In this instance I accept your reprimand in good faith. In future please give me examples of my wrong doing.

(Most probably in reference to) British blimps operated by the USN
Hello R_Orange. MY grandmother Foley left Ireland about 1922. I am trying to sort out the sometimes - often - fragmented, inaccurate, or totally wrong information on the Wikipedia about airships. I am trying to expand and elucidate. I realize just how difficult this information is to locate and organize. I wish I could state with absolute certainty what the 'truth' is, but some times we simply cannot know. Yet, we must present to the public a useful account without dragging them into the depths of what envelope was attached to which car and when. We all owe it to one another to help with the occasional typo, the difficult point, and the unknown fact. I like 'off the cuff." The thing I most miss about the old card catalog, is the loss of the chance for serendipity. Have a nice one! User:Mark_Lincoln 19/07/07.

Sorry, the last text I had under here was a mistake (see revert), as once again this week I've misread the article. Yes, my actions were to distinguish between articles that are good and, to be honest, rubbish on here. It's an important job to be a New Page Patrol (NPP) but I really don't see what I did wrong, all I did was introduce a tabbing to the opening line. So, I don't understand why you gave me a comment back? Could you clarify what you meant on here instead of here?. R_O (Talk) 15:42, 20 July 2007 (UTC)

I can understand the rubbish problem. I am learning by doing. The Navy airships page and it's stubs show signs of being done by people who have an interest, but not the facts at hand. I have seen many instances where old canards were repeated, two that come to mind are the L-1 being in collision with the G-1 instead of the actual L-ship, the L-2. The other was twaddle about the K-1 being the prototypes of the K-ships.

Please bear with me. I am just learning how to edit and write pages. I feel the Wikipedia is a valuable contribution to the world, and a fine pastime for a semi-retired computer nerd. Mark Lincoln 17:18, 20 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Ok! :) R_O (Talk) 19:39, 20 July 2007 (UTC)
