Improvements[edit]

@Dave.Dunford: Hi, Dave, nice to see someone else here. I'm trying to turn the article into something GA worthy, which i'm confident it can be. I'm done on the large formatting changes now, any improvements you can make don't mind me i'll just be chipping in little bits of prose here and there and finding reliable sources. Kind regards, Zindor (talk) 19:49, 22 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Areas needing work[edit]

Note to self and anyone interested in improving the article

Geography section needs expanding
History section could do with a land-use sub-section detailing the agriculture, silviculture and limited quarrying on the hill
Rock carvings section needs c/e and expanding to include other notable carvings
Tunnels section needs citations and additional prose. A report by Owens 1946 in the Proceedings of the Liverpool Geological Society may be a good source
Flora and Fauna section could be expanded to include earlier information from Floras of Liverpool and other sources
Climate section could be created. There were published rainfall logs (recorded at the Observatory) for a period pre-1950, there may be later data available and possibly temperature
Lede needs rewrite and expansion to 2 paras
