Could you do me a Camelsdale-related favour?
Hi Simon. Earlier this year you kindly took a photo of St Paul's Church in Camelsdale for List of current places of worship in Chichester (district) (plus a couple of pics in Hammer as well, if I remember rightly!). While doing some general place of worship research, quite by chance I came across another building used for worship in Camelsdale ... and it's got a complicated explanation. If you are able to, please could I ask to you do some investigation?

The story is this: in 2000 planning permission was granted to convert a house at 12 School Road (first building on the northeast side of the road going away from St Paul's Church) into a Plymouth Brethren meeting room. Here's a pic of it in that state, and the Google Street View image (from June 2009) shows the same scene. (Coordinates are 51.083061, -0.735421) I then found a subsequent planning application (late 2009) for the demolition of this building and its replacement with a single-storey brick-walled and timber-faced meeting hall on a different alignment on the same site. Permission appears to have been granted in mid-2010, so I am guessing the new building may now be in situ. If you could take a photo of whatever is currently there, that would be extremely useful! I have written a tentative "blurb" for the list, but will not add it until I find out whether the new building is there or not. PS More info if you want to read further around it is at Chi District Council planning app 09/04029/FUL. Many thanks, Hassocks  5489 (Floreat Hova!)  12:27, 22 November 2012 (UTC)


 * I'll take a look - probably won't be for a week or so, but I'll be happy to take a photo of whatever is there! Best regards, Simon Burchell (talk) 12:39, 22 November 2012 (UTC)
 * Wonderful - thank you!  Hassocks  5489 (Floreat Hova!)  13:07, 22 November 2012 (UTC)
 * Many thanks for taking these Simon. The close-up of the sign was particularly useful, as it confirms my expectation that this meeting room is associated with that at Fernhurst.  (I found a rejected planning app for a much larger hall at Liphook which would have replaced Fernhurst as the main hall for Brethren in the area, allowing Fernhurst to revert to a "local assembly" status – I think that's the terminology!  The app referred to Camelsdale as being one of the local meeting rooms which would have been associated with Liphook had it been built.)  Kind regards,  Hassocks  5489 (Floreat Hova!)  13:43, 29 November 2012 (UTC)
 * Glad to help! Best regards, Simon Burchell (talk) 17:07, 29 November 2012 (UTC)

DYK for Yalain
Hello! Your submission of Yalain at the Did You Know nominations page has been reviewed, and some issues with it may need to be clarified. Please review the comment(s) underneath your nomination's entry and respond there as soon as possible. Thank you for contributing to Did You Know! AbstractIllusions (talk) 19:29, 26 November 2012 (UTC)
 * Just FYI, I think I agree with you about the source being ok at the end of the paragraph. However, it was my first DYK review, so I triple checked it by the book and was probably too much of a stickler.  Regardless, thanks for the interesting read, it was really cool checking sources for this one! AbstractIllusions (talk) 00:36, 27 November 2012 (UTC)
 * Many thanks for the review - and you're right, it's better safe than sorry. All the best, Simon Burchell (talk) 08:47, 27 November 2012 (UTC)

What's your preference, Simon, would you like to see the nom try to finish this up during the current FAC, or would you rather run it through Milhist's A-class process first? (Reply at the FAC, please, if you have a preference.) - Dank (push to talk) 20:30, 30 December 2012 (UTC)

Talk:Spanish conquest of Petén/GA1
I've reviewed the article and left notes on the talk page. I've put the nomination on hold for seven days to allow the issues to be addressed. Feel free to contact me on my talk page, here, or on the article talk page with any concerns, and let me know one of those places when the issues have been addressed. If I may suggest that you strike out, check mark, or otherwise mark the items I've detailed, that will make it possible for me to see what's been addressed, and you can keep track of what's been done and what still needs to be worked on.
