Comment[edit]

A few things: I am not not a

Miner
Geologist
Geographer
Industrial Historian

All I have done is read a few books and tried to condense what I have learned into the article and I hope I have laid a reasonble foundation and I look forward others contibutions

I know the article needs some inprovements

Maps - does anybody have any copyright free ones?
In text references - The next Wiki skill I need to learn
Photos - Does anybody have any good copyright free photos of mines in the area?

There is plenty that could be added to the text and futher spin off articles Gmac101 12:17, 21 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Glad you did it too. It is was a subject that was glaringly absent from wikipedia. I'm going to copy edit it a bit now.BaseTurnComplete (talk) 21:32, 12 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Moving page from The S..Y..C.. to S..Y..C..[edit]

I've just moved the page to give it the title without "The", as per WP:NAMEsection 1.9 which says

"If the definite or indefinite article would be capitalized in running text, then include it at the beginning of the page name. This would be the case for the title of a work such as a novel. Otherwise, do not include it at the beginning of the page name." (didn't realise there was a character limit on edit comments - half of it got lost). In the text of the article it's referred to as "the South Yorkshire Coalfield". PamD 10:01, 10 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
