Wyre Dock railway station[edit]

Thanks for creating Fleetwood Wyre Dock railway station. This was on my to-do list and you've saved me some time!

All the references I've seen call the station "Wyre Dock" rather than "Fleetwood Wyre Dock". And then it was renamed "Fleetwood" in 1966. Do you have any references that call it "Fleetwood Wyre Dock"? (Or anything else for that matter.) --Dr Greg 17:18, 24 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Only my own (probably faulty) memory from the only time I caught a train there, as a child, in the late 60s (after the closure of the main station). I vaguely remember the station name on the boards as being Fleetwood Wyre Dock, but wouldn't swear to it. If you have references otherwise, feel free to change it (or I can do so) It probably should also be changes on the links (to something like 'Wyre Dock (Fleetwood)' to cover the pre and post-66 names. I do have a reference for it's construction date (1901), and have made an assumption about the mainline station as dating from 1846, as a) the original station with the trestle approach was operational for 6 years (1840-46) and b) Victoria's visit in 1847 I had always assumed was to the mainline station Stevew2022 18:24, 24 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I've put in a request for a page move (at Wikipedia:Requested moves#Uncontroversial proposals). Only an admin can make the move in this case because Wyre Dock railway station already exists as a redirect which has been edited (by me). --Dr Greg 12:15, 25 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Europe[edit]

I am stunned that I forgot about Azerbaijan and Armenia. Personally I have always classed them as being in Asia, for although Europe's boundries are not officially marked, they come south of the divide on two conventional demarcation lines with which I am familiar. But given Europe's non-geographical status as a continent in the first place, I agree that these nations belong to Europe; I'd even accept Kazakhstan, given that some of it is in the more geographical boundry. Their national soccer team has for some years been in UEFA, so its European status is like that of Turkey & Russia. Do you wish to make a statement on the article about that landlocked country? I'd favour it personally. Evlekis (talk) 18:26, 31 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I have added the Kazakhstan status to the entry. All three countries appear in the Wikipedia entries for both Europe and Asia so it's consistent across entries. (Of course, if we're using UEFA membership as a criterion, Israel would be a European country as well!). Stevew2022 18:47, 31 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The Don[edit]

thank you! --Dweller (talk) 21:57, 1 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Birmingham City[edit]

Hey, thanks for reverting the unhelpful additions, and for the fact about 13 promotions being a football league record, which I didn't know :-) Though I've undone it, for two reasons, firstly it was unsourced, and second (in my opinion anyway) it's a bit trivial for the main club article. However, if you have got a reliable source, it's an addition which would be much appreciated in the spinoff stats and records article, where it would sit very nicely in the Honours section, List of Birmingham City F.C. statistics and records#Honours. cheers, Struway2 (talk) 10:10, 29 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Jimmy Windridge[edit]

Hello. Was wondering what's your source for the fact you added to Jimmy Windridge? cheers, Struway2 (talk) 19:28, 5 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

It's referenced in Windridge's article - http://www.englandstats.com/playerreport.php?pid=1072

Stevew2022 (talk) 19:37, 5 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, I meant the bit about "equalling a record set by Tinsley Lindley and never subsequently surpassed". cheers, Struway2 (talk) 19:57, 5 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I guess it's the old "original research vs synthesis" argument. You can plough through all 1100+ players in that database and find only 3 players with goalscoring appearances in 6 consecutive internationals, and none with more. Is that 'original research' or 'synthesis'? I've dumped the info to a database, and it's then trivial to find. The England records page I (just) linked to supports it. Lindley and Windridge were already there as the record holders. Tommy Lawton, who wasn't there, equalled the record in 1939, so I added him. However, huge chunks of what's on that records page has at least as much research (and often a bit more POV) than this info. If you want to remove it from the Windridge article, feel free to do so; I won't replace it. Cheers

Stevew2022 (talk) 20:05, 5 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Wasn't doubting the accuracy, just seems odd that a stat like that wouldn't appear in a reliable published source, or an unreliable one, for that matter. I'll leave it in, and fact-tag it. cheers, Struway2 (talk) 20:34, 5 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

St. Nicholas' Church (Fleetwood)[edit]

Hi there, do you have any objection to me (or you) moving St. Nicholas' Church (Fleetwood) to St. Nicholas' Church, Fleetwood? Most of the other articles on churches tend to be named this way (see eg. Category:Church of England churches in Lancashire) so would be more consistent. Cheers, --Beloved Freak 18:06, 15 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Not at all. That's the way I had it originally, and it was moved later to the format we have now. Please feel free to change it back! Stevew2022 (talk) 20:07, 15 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Ok, I have done. I can see why it was moved and have seen discussions about these name formats. Although the version with parentheses may be more logical, it affects a great number of articles so any discussion should probably take place on a larger scale. Good work by the way, I had been thinking on starting an article on the church!--Beloved Freak 20:12, 15 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Copyright violation on St Chad's Church, Poulton-le-Fylde[edit]

Hello, I've just noticed that the information you added to St Chad's Church, Poulton-le-Fylde in this edit appears to have been copied and pasted from another source (it is available word-for-word on the Poulton-le-Fylde Historical and Civic Society website and was written by Christine Storey, published in 1995.)

Hello, I'm Mattythewhite. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Bobby Charlton, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so!

Unfortunately you are right, I can't provide a cite. I copied and pasted the following table (judging by the Milner entry, about 5 years ago) from what I thought was englandfootballonline.com and went back to confirm it and give the cite, but I can't find it. Perhaps it was from some other maybe defunct website. Without the cite, we should drop both of these changes. Thanks for spotting...
