List of places in Yorkshire
Hi, many thanks for your contributions to the List of places in Yorkshire article. Just a pointer for you that you can create a link to the actual article by forming what we call a wikilink by placing double square brackets round the name. Thus entering York will produce a link to the York article. Hope this helps. Keith D (talk) 13:23, 3 February 2012 (UTC)

List of places in Lancashire
Wikipedia locates places in their current ceremonial county, so the List of places in Lancashire refers to the post-1974 boundaries. There may be a case for creating a separate "List of places historically in Lancashire". If you wish to discuss this further, I'd suggest doing this at Talk:List of places in Lancashire (or maybe Talk:List of places in England) so that other editors can take part. --  Dr Greg   talk  13:42, 18 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Also with reference to List of places in Staffordshire. Jan 1 naD  (talk • contrib) 22:27, 20 March 2012 (UTC)
 * I have now created a separate List of places historically in Lancashire for places that were in Lancashire before 1974 (when major boundary changes took place, not just in Lancashire but many other English counties). Please, before you add any more articles to a county list, read the article first. If you read the Withington article, your latest attempted addition to List of places in Lancashire, you will see it is now in Greater Manchester, a different county, and lower down it says "in historic county boundaries of Lancashire". So in this case you can add it to List of places historically in Lancashire instead. Don't rely on Google for the correct current county. --  Dr Greg   talk  18:50, 26 March 2012 (UTC)
