===The Three Points===
I come from Ossett.  I am quite sure that the three points are Wakefield, Rothwell and Morley.  I shall double check this though.  The article here seems to be based on the B.B.C. article, which states Leeds, Bradford and Wakefield.  However, I am quite sure that Bradford is not involved.  Also, I am not sure why Ossett was singled out as one of the two main rhubarb towns.  Epa101 21:23, 31 August 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Rightly or wrongly, an unregistered user has recently changed the three points of the triangle. I've added a 'citations' tag in the hope that the article can become more readily verifiable. As a Wikipedian, if the BBC says Leeds, Bradford and Wakefield then Leeds, Bradford and Wakefield it is; as a human being, I defer to Epa101 as (s)he comes from Ossett. For the article to be safe from deletion, however, pretty much everything needs to come with a reliable citation. Wavehunter 02:29, 17 October 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: The Three Points

message: My attention was caught by this:
:Only a few decades ago, more than 90% of the world's forced rhubarb crop was grown in this small area.
The obvious thing a reader is going to think upon seeing that is: "Well, why isn't it now?" but this is not explained at all. Paul Simons in the Times makes a brief reference to the decline of cold winters, but WP's article badly needs this to be covered. Loganberry (Talk) 18:04, 7 December 2008 (UTC)
