Talk:Ancaster, Lincolnshire

message: :Image:Ancaster grave.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is  other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page.  Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

message: Might I please propose the News Items section is deleted from this article? My reason for asking is because the articles (such as Teacher jailed for sex with pupil BBC News, 11 March, 2004) which has today been deleted by Ksp001 (talk | contribs)‎ ) appear to be about people, rather than the villageGrahamSmith (talk) 11:06, 10 April 2012 (UTC)

thread_title:  Town or village 

message: " the later years of Roman occupation, a large stone wall with accompanying ditches was erected around the town, possibly for defence against marauding Saxons."
I just watched the relevant Time Team episode. They said that the wall enclosure was built to protect from pirates. The point was made that the town was closer to the shore back then. Saxons didn't get to Britain until after the Romans had left.
