Warren, East Sussex
Hi Putney Bridge - I've removed the CSD tag you left on the above-mentioned article, because it didn't meet any of the speedy deletion criteria ("nonsense" in that context refers not to simply inaccurate information, but to something completely incomprehensible). If Warren really isn't a place in East Sussex, I'd suggest making use of the WP:AFD process. Cheers, Sarcasticidealist (talk) 14:51, 19 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Thanks - I went for the CSD because the AFD process looked scary. It wasn't that bad after all. Putney Bridge (talk) 19:02, 19 January 2008 (UTC)
 * I left a comment at Articles for deletion/Warren, East Sussex. You're a local resident and I'm not, so I'd like to ask you to consider moving the Warren, East Sussex article to Crowborough Warren, or to start a fresh article on Crowborough Warren. There already is an article for Crowborough itself. Could you please review the List of places in East Sussex and consider adding articles for the most important places on that list that do not already have articles? --Eastmain (talk) 21:37, 19 January 2008 (UTC)
 * As the article consists of one sentence "Warren is in Eastbourne" there is not much point in moving it! As my user page states this is my persona for tidying up Wikipedia, my main account is already active in the area you described. Putney Bridge (talk) 22:19, 19 January 2008 (UTC)

Hastings
Hello Putney Bridge - Thanks for the pointer to closed discussion on Hastings, Sussex. I didn't realize that it was driven by hits but with just intuition and the absence of real data, it is hard for me to argue with that. I guess I'll just focus on improving the disambiguation page and the link(s) off of it. Thanks again. SBmeier (talk) 12:39, 30 January 2010 (UTC)SBmeier
 * The primary topic is not officially defined by hits, that is just how the debate went for Hastings. See WP:PRIMARYTOPIC for some more information. There is nothing stopping you reopening the discussions if you feel you have something new to add to the argument, although these issues are a can of worms, Talk:Lincoln is another example.

ANI
Hi, you recently started a thread about the edit war at The Blue Cross and Northiam. Per the notice at the top of the ANI page, you are supposed to notify those involved of the thread, which I have done for you this time. Ypu can use the template to do this. Mjroots (talk) 08:41, 25 February 2010 (UTC)
 * In my mind I was just asking for advice on how to handle the situation rather than starting negotiations on the edit war, which I why I did not notify anyone. The end result is that although things did not escalate as I was expecting, at least some others are aware of the page, so thanks for that. Putney Bridge (talk) 20:45, 25 February 2010 (UTC)

Hammerwood Park
I need some advice about Hammerwood Park. The house's website and address is listed in East Grinstead, which is in West Sussex, but the house has been categorized for East Sussex. I am not from the UK, so any help with proper categorization is welcome. I am working on List of museums in East Sussex. The list for West Sussex will come later. I want to put the house in the right list. Thank you for any help. Jllm06 (talk) 16:02, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Hammerwood Park is in East Sussex. The postal address is confusing because the Post Office uses the nearest town, which in the case of Hammerwood Park lies across the county border in West Sussex. Putney Bridge (talk) 21:40, 1 April 2010 (UTC)

Can you help, pse?
I've just created a new article on the Diplomatic wireless service but should have capitalised all three words in the title. Could you pse look at my comments on the Discussion Page and help to sort out the mess? Thanks in advance. Mikeo1938 (talk) 15:38, 13 July 2010 (UTC)

hammerpond.org
Your removal of the link to the hammerpond.org website has been reverted by another editor. I've had a look at the website, and it seems that it will be useful for expanding a number of river articles on Wikipedia, and thus a good link. Mjroots (talk) 08:39, 11 January 2011 (UTC)
 * I agree it is an interesting site. After deleting the link I spent time looking through it (Spam links work!). My opinion is still that it is still a spam link, although in this instance I would suggest that it be put onto the talk page, not in the main article. The website cites the original sources of the information and these would be a better source for Wikipedia expansion. Putney Bridge (talk) 01:03, 12 January 2011 (UTC)
 * If you still object to the link, maybe it should be discussed at the article's talk page. I've already used that website to expand John Browne (King's Gunfounder), and with the knowledge that his wife is buried in Horsmonden church (about 5 miles from me), I intend to see if there is further info that can be gleaned from her graveslab. Mjroots (talk) 08:34, 12 January 2011 (UTC)
 * The link was added by an anon IP whose sole contribution was to add the link to four articles, that is someone spamming so I reverted their entries. The link was reinstated by an experienced editor whose name I recognised as a regular contributor to articles on my watch list - I have no objections to that. I am happy to leave articles to their regular contributors. Putney Bridge (talk) 19:26, 12 January 2011 (UTC)

Template:Eastbourne weatherbox
✅, per your request. Note that if the template was transcluded somewhere, and still contains inaccurate information, you'll want to remove it or (preferably) update it with correct info. UltraExactZZ Said~ Did 19:22, 26 January 2011 (UTC)

Eastbourne
Wonder whether you've seen the recent comments about the GA rating of the article. You'll see that I've already done something about citations and have mooted the idea of shifting Blue Plaques to a new article and leaving just a summary. I take the point about the images ... some are indeed unnecessary. It would be a shame to lose the GA; I see there are only some 116 GA for places.Mikeo1938 (talk) 21:01, 4 July 2011 (UTC)
