Levenshulme
Welcome to Wikipedia.

Re your edits the the Levenshulme article. The karate club isn't really a notable entity with regard to the area itself. At the moment the club's section hasn't been removed due to the assertion by yourself that two of the instructors may be notable in and of themselves. Could you please supply links to reliable sources that back up your assertions? Additionally, please don't add the club's website link to the article as it's not relevant to Levenshulme itself and is tantamount to advertising. Please see WP:EL for Wikipedia guidelines on external links. Cheers. -- Web H amster  12:44, 13 April 2009 (UTC)

Please can you help me with the reliable sourses,,, e.g www.policekarate.co.uk, i'm not sure what to do,, and oppolagies to putting website link up,,, as i thought it was part of the community, but if it breaches advertisment rules that fair enough,

thanks Jay

The reliable sources need to be 3rd party, independent, secondary sources such as books, established newspapers (web only ones will do), magazine articles and other things like that. The reference can't be, in this instance, the police website or the karate club website as they are classed as primary sources. Are there any press cuttings/web newspaper articles on either the instructors or the Guinness attempt? In the situation with the police record attempt the report will have to mention both the police AND the karate club. Likewise any reports on the instructors have to mention them by name (and not just a passing/trivial reference) and preferably the club name too.

I'm sorry that this seems to be a lot of trouble, but this is one of WP's core policies that all entries need to have reliable sources associated with them, especially information that can be challenged. -- Web H amster  15:17, 13 April 2009 (UTC)

i found this for a reliable sourse... not sure where to put it though. http://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/news/s/1081364_cops_set_kungfu_record thanks Jay

Sorry, although that would be a reliable source if the police team had an article and used in that article, but as it doesn't mention the Lev KC or even any of its instructors it's no good for the Lev article. -- Web H amster  22:29, 13 April 2009 (UTC)
