message: Although Giles Gilbert Scott was born during the reign of Queen Victoria, I think it is misleading to describe him as 'Victorian'.
Through the influence of his father (George Gilbert Scott) he was well versed in the neo-gothic style, characteristic of the Victorian museums in South Kensington. However he was only 23 when he won this commision. Gilbert Scott's later work is largely modernist.

message: Is "boyd" correct, or a tyop for "body"?   If it isn't boyd (which my dictionary doesn't show) I'm dissapointed :) - we do need a word for "the main hall of a church", but I refrained from saying "body" myself, as it can mean "congregation". -- Finlay McWalter |  Talk 23:57, 30 May 2004 (UTC)
replies: text: Oh, carp. Clearly a tyop, I'm afraid. I was aiming for "body" to avoid the rapid-succession repetition of "space", but you're right abõut the possibility of body/congregation confusion. Perhaps "nave" was the word we were both struggling for. –Hajor 01:08, 31 May 2004 (UTC)
replies: text: No, the nave is just the central part of the long axis - see the (most excellent) Cathedral diagram.  Body may have to do. -- Finlay McWalter |  Talk 01:20, 31 May 2004 (UTC)

text: (Yes, excellent diagrams.) I've just tried a wording with "spacious" and "interior". Pleae play about, revert, experiment. –Hajor 01:52, 31 May 2004 (UTC)
replies: text: That's an excellent improvement, thanks (although it does sound ever so slightly estate-agenty) -- Finlay McWalter |  Talk 01:54, 31 May 2004 (UTC)

text:  The convention at Liverpool is that the "nave" is just the section to the (liturgical) West of the nave bridge. The section between the two sets of transepts is known simply as the "Central Space", although in other places "under-tower" would be a more usual term. (Scott is reputed to have said, "Don't look at my arches; look at my spaces" Entablature (talk) 15:32, 11 June 2014 (UTC)
thread_title: boyd?

message: In the process of editing I removed the following information on the diocese of Liverpool, largely because it seemed too much detail before any mention of the cathedral.
It is the seat of the Bishop of Liverpool, whose diocese covers Merseyside (except Wirral), Warrington, and West Lancashire.  It is part of the Anglican province of York.
Is this sufficiently covered in List of Church of England dioceses or should it go somewhere else?  -- Solipsist 09:49, 31 May 2004 (UTC)
replies: text: I confess I put that in for wont of something "overview"-y to have in the opening sentence.  I'll link the first mention of diocese to that, which should be fine.  Nice job on the Bodley article, btw. -- Finlay McWalter |  Talk 10:53, 31 May 2004 (UTC)

message: Regarding this sentence "Appropriately, in view of the divisions within Christianity, and particularly between the Anglican and Catholic Communions, the cathedrals are linked by Hope Street." Would it be appropriate to note in the article that Hope Street is actually named after a slave trader? Maltaran 22:16, 12 September 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: The reference to 'appropriate' was in reference to the meaning of the word hope, rather than any association with the person after whom the street was named, which in itself is not within the scope of this article. --JohnArmagh 18:30, 13 September 2007 (UTC)

message: So is it the largest Protestant cathedral by area or not? I came to the article hoping to find out and I'm none the wiser.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.225.202.127 (talk) 12:17, 16 October 2007 (UTC)

message: The article has a section called "Dimensions" but the information in it seems to be at variance with what is in the official Cathedral website . For example
length: Official website: 188.67m;      article: 178m
area: Official website: 9687.4m2        article: 8400m2
As the discrepancy is considerable I am putting a "citation needed" note on this section of the article. Michael Glass (talk) 09:33, 13 June 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Dimensions of the Cathedral 

message: Could Vilĉjo or some other interested person please go over to the page listed above and make the entry on Liverpool Cathedral comply with the other entries, so that the list pertaining to this cathedral links to the cathedral's article.  
NOTE: In the context of an article, you cannot link a heading, as I have done on this talk page, because it doesn't comply with the MOS.  So what was done with the original entries was that every single cathedral had a short sentence, in which the name of the Cathedral is linked e.g. "Organists at Barchester Cathedral have included Septimus Harding."

thread_title: [[List of musicians at English cathedrals]]

message: The article clains "The belltower is the largest, and also one of the tallest, in the world (see List of tallest churches in the world)". On the referenced list Liverpool Cathedral is only 7th (extant) tallest in England, and 100+ down the world list. Suggest this is a long way from "one of the tallest in the world? In the UK, yes.
