Priory Midsomer Norton
Hi, Thanks for your edits to Midsomer Norton & Church of the Holy Ghost, Midsomer Norton suggesting The Priory is older than the church, however Images of England entry (which is likely to be more reliable than the Moody Goose site) says "Early-mid C17" while the church is "probably 15th C". We might need more evidence for definitive evidence, but it would probably be worth doing an article on the Priory as it is II* listed.&mdash; Rod talk 11:00, 26 January 2010 (UTC)

? nomination of Midsomer Norton for GA
If you think it meets the Good article criteria would you be willing to nominate Midsomer Norton at Good article nominations. You have made the most edits to the article and I've already nominated Frome, Somerset at GAN today. If you think there are things which still need doing first I'd be happy to discuss, perhaps at Talk:Midsomer_Norton.&mdash; Rod talk 14:01, 7 February 2010 (UTC)


 * User:Pyrotec has now started the GA review at Talk:Midsomer Norton/GA1. I've partly dealt with a couple of the comments, but several need access to books about the local area & I was wondering whether you are able to get hold of them to answer the queries.&mdash; Rod talk 14:51, 10 March 2010 (UTC)
 * I don't know the Cornwall book mentioned in the review but I have got Collier, Peter (1986). Colliers Way: The Somerset Coalfield. Ex Libris Press. ISBN 978-0948578052. out of the library in Midsomer Norton before now. If you are there could you look for page nos for the Athill & Oakley books? I'm sure lots of the local history books will have something to help answer some of the points raised. I can't find anything backing up "Norton Canonicorum" or the rest of that paragraph. Any contributions would be useful.&mdash; Rod talk 22:41, 10 March 2010 (UTC)
 * To add the page number use |page=97 If it is multiple pages use |pages=X-X. The online ref you gave just goes top a (spectacular) picture - do you mean this?&mdash; Rod talk 20:11, 11 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Go for it - the web site seems to have good provenance. Once you made the edits add a note on the review page so the reviewer knows what has been done & what is outstanding. Also put where problems are being encountered, normally they are very supportive.&mdash; Rod talk 20:24, 11 March 2010 (UTC)
 * I don't really want to raise this during a GA nomination, but I spotted a problem with the article - it doesn't have a population figure. I've found numbers for Norton Radstock (both BANES & ONS) but not Midsomer Norton as it is not a separate parish or ward. I've sent an email to the council & asked in the library, but no useful responses. Any ideas?&mdash; Rod talk 08:17, 14 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Thanks but I'm not giving my credit card details to Farlex, just to have a look to see what figure they give. The link on that page is to Norton Radstock where we have a ref for 21,325. They may just be recycling old wikipedia content when MSN & Radstock were the same article.&mdash; Rod talk 18:34, 14 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Norton Radstock is 21,325 (2001 census) from the ONS) & that Radstock is 5,286 ONS However I’m aware that NR includes Clandown & some of the villages so I can’t just subtract the figures. The BANES page at http://www.bathnes.gov.uk/BathNES/councilanddemocracy/statisticsandcensusinformation/default.htm lists NR & Radstock but doesn’t give any figures for Midsomer Norton.&mdash; Rod talk 20:00, 14 March 2010 (UTC)
 * The one from ONS ward data looks good - but need to make it clear it has been aggregated from 2 source documents. Well done & thanks.&mdash; Rod talk 20:13, 14 March 2010 (UTC)
 * I've added it with 2 refs - may not be best format, will play later but it's kid story time now.&mdash; Rod talk 20:51, 14 March 2010 (UTC)

Congratulations on your first GA.&mdash; Rod talk 07:45, 17 March 2010 (UTC)

An eye
Hey Pete--I saw your good work at Future plc, thanks. I've gone a step further and removed everything that couldn't be sourced (so I removed your tags also...), which was a lot since I could find only one reliable source.

David Cameron's relationship to Tony Adams
Hi Petinterpol, Thanks for the detail. However, the fact remains that Adams and Cameron are not related. All we can say is that a relative of Cameron has married a relative of Adams. That does not mean that Cameron and Adams are related. If the Telgraph claims otherwise then they are wrong. MidnightBlue  (Talk)  10:57, 16 May 2010 (UTC)

Confused of Norwich...
Hi Peteinterpol... Perhaps you could explain why you have twice removed our addition to the life and times of Arthur Smith? Being a Norwich magazine, we felt it pertinent to ask him questions relating to his time at the UEA, and this is one nugget that he offered. I thought the inclusion would provide details of his richer tapestry. If we add again, could you please not remove? 82.2.17.115 (talk) 01:05, 5 December 2010 (UTC)Outlineonline

Hello Peteinterpol, can I echo the above question? You edited my addition to Arthur Smith's page. I am a student of comedy and studied with Mr Smith at the prestigious Skyros Centre, (you can google that for confirmation) and have been an avid, nay almost focused collector of comedians ephemera. Simon Munnery, a great admirer of Mr Smith now sells tour only published material as does John Barrowman who sells a beautiful book of family recipes he co-wrote with his sister.

Any thoughts?

13th - Hello there. You deleted my addition regarding Arthur Smith and then told me not to revert your deletion of my addition. This seems a little odd. You say that the deletion was because of a grammatical confusion. Would you revert my comment and change to what you consider the appropriate grammar? Also you changed the connection to being a famous English Jew. I deleted this because Arthur is not Jewish. I know this because I asked him myself. If wikipedia is about making the most accurate resource you have reintroduced a non factually correct element. I will revert changes in a couple of days if you have no opinion or reply. I am unsure of how best to communicate here being new and am finding your assertions slightly off putting as to wanting to join the wiki community. Would you require me to confirm my association with Arthur to give you the policer of this page the confidence you need? Is this how wikipedia works? regards - confused of Arthur Smith Land. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Fortom (talk • contribs) 17:03, 13 August 2013 (UTC)

Chris Harris edit
Really? Dabs are cheap; I figured it would help in the kind of case where somebody isn't sure whether it's a true double-barrelled name, as opposed to one of those "always uses the middle name" cases once reserved for Victorian lady poetesses but so common nowadays. -- Orange Mike  &#x007C;   Talk  18:57, 15 September 2011 (UTC)


 * Hello Orangemike. I understand the point you are making and that your entry was of course in good faith.  I had never heard of Mr Heaton-Harris before so I don't know if his name is often shortened to Harris in general usage.  If so, I would keep him on the list.  If not then I don't think it is sensible to add him to what is a very long list of people who are harder to find with every new name added.  But I would welcome the views of any other editors, particularly if there is any official Wikipedia policy or guidance on this. Any views, anyone?  Best wishes.  Peteinterpol (talk) 19:16, 15 September 2011 (UTC)
 * It's a question of whether he is often called by that variant of his name; WP:MOSDAB leaves it to the judgement of the editor(s). I'd say, as I said, that it's cheap and harmless; but I don't feel strongly on the matter, so I'll leave it to you (I hope I'm not being swayed by his website, which makes him look like as sleek and smarmy a bit of Tory nastiness as I hope never to meet in a dark alley [or at a bargaining table]). -- Orange Mike  &#x007C;   Talk  20:37, 15 September 2011 (UTC)

American or British English
I reverted your small change on the Copley High School article. The general rule of thumb is for articles that are clearly tied to a specific country, you use the English spellings of that country. Since Copley High School is in the US, you would use "colors" instead of "colours". For British school articles, you would use British spellings. See MOS:TIES. Happy editing! --JonRidinger (talk) 22:27, 11 October 2011 (UTC)

Hi and Thank you
Hi Peteinterpol, first of all I would like to thank you for updating the page Somer Valley FM. As you may of noticed, we have recently been updating the page with news of many developments since this page was launched.

We have been told, some of what we have been trying to post up has been described as promotional wording and therefore is unacceptable. Since we can not see any obvious commercial aspect to our copy, we would be very grateful if we could have a telephone conversation to discuss this.

Since it is clear that you wish to continue helping with our wiki page, it would make sense for us to communicate directly as we are all working in the best interest of such a positive community project. Would you mind supplying telephone contacts for our station manager to get in touch. He can be reached on Email: Manager@somervalleyfm.co.uk, Office Line : 01761 411755.

Many thanks,

Downside School
The reasoning behind my edit is quite sound. It's positioning on the page is not good. Firstly, it must be remembered that Downside is a monastery where children are sent to receive a catholic education. Monastery first and then school second. Your source is not reliable since it is a newspaper. Dom Nicholas was not known as Fr Nick. I think this is a poor attempt to call him Satan. He was known as Hittler or Peck. The source is not good because it requires us to pay for a subscription to a News International publication, an organisation which is of dubious reputation and parts of which are under ongoing police criminal investigations. Reporters all have the same stories and so are paid to put their own spin on them. It would be an idea to list sources that we can click and verify immediately. This is the whole point of wikis policy of sources - so that we can immediately look them up. Fr Nicholas was wrong and his misdeeds were actually referred to the police who at the time decided not to take any action. The fourth monk mentioned is Dom Antony, and the allegation against him had no substance especially since the victim told police it was all lies. Mind you the alleged victim did not actually make the complaint! Last year Downside indeed received an "inadequate" rating from Ofsted because it did not meet new criteria set. This would relate in allowing access to monastic gardens and the Abbey church unsupervised. This reasoning is obvious because the community does receive many guest and I am sure people such as the Dalai Lama have not had criminal record checks. Improvements were also needed for the reporting abuse thus aiding in its prevention. In November 2011 there was a followi up inspection and Downside was compliant in all areas. The Independent Schools commission went a little further and so there are further improvements to follow. Whilst child abuse is repugnant and Dm Nicholas is right to be punished, the prominence of your piece is not correct. It would find a better place towards the end and edited. Your piece is the largest I the entry. We want an encyclopaedia not a personal crusade. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Denhaagandy (talk • contribs) 16:44, 15 April 2012 (UTC)

MI5
Whenever I come into the UK I get interrogated by MI5. Why would they do that? It is bloody inconvenient.... Aaaah they must be scared of something, but cannot prove. That is the way we work. But then if MI5 are frightened, don't they have a reason to be. Without proper sources that we can all see, do not amend the Downside page. The Times is not a proper source since we cannot check it. As i mentioned other users unless they subscribe to the Times ie pay cannot check your source. As per rules of wiki newspapers are not reliable sources although they are ok to use.

You failed to mention that Downside has been inspected in November and the report in published in January shows that Downside is compliant in all areas. This was 6 months after the previous one. The OFSTED report prior said that Downside was good in all areas.

Continue along your current lines I can only see one outcome. Please for your own sake do not continue. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Denhaagandy (talk • contribs) 20:00, 17 April 2012 (UTC)

Actual deluge
I don't have a problem with your recent edit to Noah's Ark Zoo Farm, but are you sure "actual deluge" is more neutral than "biblical Deluge"? That seems to suggest that the worldwide flood of Genesis was an actual event.--John Foxe (talk) 00:13, 7 November 2015 (UTC)
 * I thought what you wrote was fine except that the article needs to be oblique about Bush's beliefs regarding the biblical Flood. He certainly thinks it was a historical event, but not much more can be assumed from his autobiography.  A two-page chapter, "Noah: Truth or Myth," doesn't mention geology and implies that Noah lived 60-90,000 years ago. The index has no entry for "Noah," "Ark," "Flood," "Deluge," or "Creation" though it does have entries for "circumcision," "coitus interruptus," "condoms," "pornography," "prostitutes," "Viagra," "venereal diseases," and "virginity."--John Foxe (talk) 19:43, 7 November 2015 (UTC)

Midsomer
Thanks for your tweak to River Somer. Do you have a reference for the alternative derivation of Midsomer?&mdash; Rod talk 07:42, 1 September 2016 (UTC)


 * Hello Rod. Thanks for this.  Yes, it is explained in some detail in the 'History' section of the Midsomer Norton page, with supporting references.  Incidentally, I did recently read of a further (uncited) explanation offered by someone at Radstock Museum, who believes that the name of the River Somer was invented by visiting Victorian cartographers from London.  They are said to have asked locals the name of the river and got the response "the Brook". The visitors did not believe it could have no actual name.  So they took "Somer" from the name of the town and applied it to the river.  The circumstantial evidence for this is that many locals do still call it "the Brook".  Anyway, hope that helps.

Proposed deletion of Charles William Cain


The article Charles William Cain has been proposed for deletion&#32;because of the following concern: "Lacks proper WP:RS."

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
