Ely
Hi. I'll outline what I think needs changing about your recent edits to Ely, Cambridgeshire and why. Firstly, the stuff about the school. This is a news story, and not of great significance in the history of the city of Ely - see WP:NOTNEWS and WP:RECENT. It is, however, significant in the history of Ely Community College (which you should have linked to) so it is fine that it is captured in that article. Note that language such as "hit the headlines" isn't very encyclopaedic. Secondly, concerning the courthouse; is the building so important that it requires its own section? Well that's debatable. Either way, the details of the courthouse should start at its beginnings (i.e. its construction and the reasoning behind it) rather than at the end, when it was shut down. A better term than "government cuts" is required - which branch of government, for instance? Also, is Ely People a reliable source? Ilikeeatingwaffles (talk) 09:24, 12 April 2011 (UTC)
