Surrey Wildlife Trust

 * Nominator(s): Dudley Miles (talk) 10:06, 6 May 2019 (UTC)

This is the latest in my nominations of wildlife trusts and is in the same format as FLs such as Suffolk and Kent. Dudley Miles (talk) 10:06, 6 May 2019 (UTC)
 * Support - excellent work as ever Dudley (I made one tiny tweak) -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 21:11, 10 May 2019 (UTC)
 * Many thanks . Dudley Miles (talk) 22:44, 10 May 2019 (UTC)


 * Support my concerns addressed, or not worth quibbling over. Nice work Dudley, once again. The Rambling Man (talk) 17:43, 21 May 2019 (UTC)

Comments
 * Could you explain the sentence "In 2002 it took over Surrey County Council's large countryside estate"? Does that mean the Council used to manage an unknown number of the the nature reserves but now the trust does? The singular estate isn't clear to me.
 * I take it to mean that the Trust took over management of the council's parks and nature reserves, but I am reluctant to change the Trust's wording here in case I get it wrong. Do you have a suggestion?
 * I read the source and still don't quite know what they mean. Perhaps it's the difference in American and British English, but I don't read "large countryside estate" as several scattered parks and reserves. Perhaps there's a contemporary source that can clarify. Reywas92Talk 16:23, 31 May 2019 (UTC)
 * I see I missed this comment. I have limited access forthe next two weeks while I am on holiday but I will check when I get back. Dudley Miles (talk) 22:50, 15 June 2019 (UTC)


 * All the other designations in the second paragraph are common nouns and shouldn't be capitalized, e.g. National nature reserve (United Kingdom) and Local nature reserve
 * See my reply in Featured list candidates/List of Local Nature Reserves in East Sussex/archive1. Dudley Miles (talk) 12:33, 31 May 2019 (UTC)


 * The same citation doesn't need to be duplicated for both the site name and description
 * I think it is better as in some cases such as Chobham Common the description is from a different source. Dudley Miles (talk) 12:33, 31 May 2019 (UTC)


 * None of the SU##### or TQ#### links in the location column are working for me, they need to be updated to whatever they are
 * I have raised a query with the editor who maintains grid references, and will update or delete if it is not just a temporary bug. Dudley Miles (talk) 12:33, 31 May 2019 (UTC)


 * Bay Pond: What makes this educational? And they're all run by the Trust since they're listed here so that's unnecessary to state.
 * This is one of the sites which are not open to the public and are run by Trusts to provide educational facilities for schools. SWT does not specifically mention schools, but it does mention an outdoor classroom so I have added this. Dudley Miles (talk) 12:33, 31 May 2019 (UTC)


 * Bisley: "There are mammals such as roe deer and invertebrates include..." needs a comma between the independent clauses. Barossa, Fir Tree Copse, and a few others need this too
 * Brentmoor doesn't need a comma after adders
 * I have never been clear about the rules about commas, but I have changed as you suggest. Dudley Miles (talk) 12:33, 31 May 2019 (UTC)

Looks pretty good Reywas92Talk 06:41, 29 May 2019 (UTC)
 * Many thanks for your comments . Dudley Miles (talk) 12:33, 31 May 2019 (UTC)
