Talk:Leintwardine

message: Hi All, 
I have reverted some changes made to the amenities in the village. It is unfair that the Sun Inn should be specifically mentioned whilst AH Griffiths, Griffiths Garage, the Lion, and the Fiddlers Elbow are not.
There is not a clear explanation for the changes which resulted in the removal of these businesses, they are a part of the village, and of interest to anyone seeking to learn more about the village, the local amenities that Leintwardine enjoys are far in excess to that enjoyed by other villages in the locality and this fact should be recognised and lauded, not hidden away. T
The user in question appears to have removed these references because it is presented in list form, there is no problem with lists if the list is relevant to the topic at hand http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:NOT#Wikipedia_is_not_a_directory. Businesses in the village are relevant to the modern day village of Leintwardine, the vitality of local businesses in Leintwardine are of interest in themselves, as well as those seeking to learn more about our settlement.

replies: text: It is not about fairness but rather about what is trivia and what is not. The Sun appears to have a claim to notability; Griffiths Garage etc do not. You obviously have a conflict of interest here, by the way. - Sitush (talk) 10:08, 12 August 2014 (UTC)

text: Where is the claimed notability? God, if we start listing non-notable businesses in a village then we're going to have to list every one and keep track of start-ups, as well as when they change hands/go bust etc. We don't usually do it, it's as simple as that. Can you not, for example, find mention of these other businesses in some local history book? - Sitush (talk) 10:28, 12 August 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: What you probably could do is create an entry at WikiVoyage and then link to that entry from here using . I'm not 100% sure but I think that they would accept this info. I'm happy to sort it out at this end if you do at that end. - Sitush (talk) 10:31, 12 August 2014 (UTC)

text: No, it isn't really acceptable. I was actually thinking of removing that entire paragraph, except for the bit about churches (which are sort of inherently notable). I have access to some sources here that you probably do not - British Newspaper Archive, JSTOR etc - and I'll try to take a look through those. I don't do a tremendous amount of work here on English subjects, although I occasionally run something up about Mancunian history, but I'll see what turns up. - Sitush (talk) 11:04, 12 August 2014 (UTC)

text: Wikipedia is about notability and verifiability, not truth. (There is an essay about that somewhere on the site). Arguably, that is a big failing of the project but, believe me, we in the UK have it easy compared to, say, those trying to document stuff in India. Over there, most history etc is passed down by word of mouth and so there are no reliable documents/sources that they can use - huge chunks of Indian stuff goes unsaid because of our systemic bias that disallows oral history. Perhaps we should be grateful for small mercies? - Sitush (talk) 11:29, 12 August 2014 (UTC)

text: I am in Manchester and my brother lives near to Abergavenney. Some time soon, I'm going to be pottering down to see him. If you'd like me to do a small detour then I don't mind driving through Leintwardine for a gab. Sometimes things seem more confrontational etc than is intended when communication is done as we are doing. - Sitush (talk) 12:01, 12 August 2014 (UTC)
