Talk:Dudley (UK Parliament constituency)

message: The Boundaries section should either have some content  added or be cut.--Kudpung (talk) 19:32, 12 June 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: Boundaries

message: There is a MOS policy  about  empty  sections -  there's even a tag  for  them. They  don't  look  nice, and they  could remain  empty  for a very  long  time. A couple of years ago, I  created a lot  of wine articles. I made a template , including  infoboxes, headings, sub  sections, cats, etc etc. But  I  kept it  in  my  sandbox and didn't  post  a new article until  the template was fully  populated. Maybe the people at the constituencies project  could do  a rethink on  this one.--Kudpung (talk) 15:37, 30 July 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes, blank sections do look untidy, but there must be 1000+ constituency articles, all with the same format.  It is to be hoped the sections will all be filled in in due course.  For the moment, please be patient.  Peterkingiron (talk) 16:46, 1 August 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Empty sections 

message: I suspect that this article and also that on Stourbridge (UK Parliament constituency) are misleading. I believe that Stourbridge was part of the pre-1974 Dudley constituency. The 1974 reorganisation involved a reorganisation of all the constituencies in Dudley Metropolitan Borough, so that the constituency boundaries excluded those parts of Brierley Hill (UK Parliament constituency) that reamined in Staffordshire. This involved splitting the old Dudley constituency and combining Stourbridge with Halesowen.  Peterkingiron (talk) 09:25, 19 April 2010 (UTC)

:which appears like this (indents)
:as to whether the Assassination of Ian Gow should feature in the "intro."?  Apparently this was part of a string by the Prov. IRA.  Also other Eastbourne past MPs may have been more senior ministers and be of note for an appropriately interesting subsection to boost the quality of this article up towards A grade (loosely equiv. to Good Article status). Signed - Adam37 Talk 14:11, 25 June 2017 (UTC)
thread_title: Assassination in the lead section, notable ministers serving the area

message: The article had the Conservative Caroline Ansell's vote share dropping by 4.5% in 2017, but in fact comparing the figures it increased by 4.5% and this is confirmed by other sources. I think the confusion is because she lost the seat she had won in 2015, but this was actually due to the Liberal Democrat Stephen Lloyd's vote share increasing more than Ansell's, rather than a drop in her vote. I have thus corrected this error.Dunarc (talk) 20:26, 6 August 2020 (UTC)

Talk:List of serial killers before 1900

message: It seems to me that calling someone a "serial killer" without a source referring to them as such (ie. by using the definition in the lead) is ultimately WP:OR / WP:SYNTH. The list's inclusion criteria should require at least one source using the term serial killer. --Aquillion (talk) 20:32, 5 August 2023 (UTC)
thread_title:  Does this list really make sense given that the term and concept of a "serial killer" is a 20th century invention? 

message: There's a lot of major political figures in this list given that it says at the top that they're excluded. I'm going to remove the most glaring (eg. sitting heads of state, princes and the like, or anyone where the accusation or reputation seems to be considered political in nature due to their office or position), but we should consider what to do with the large numbers of nobles, many of whom were also politically important figures in their day and which might require more examination. --Aquillion (talk) 20:45, 5 August 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: No, it excludes all political figures (Leopold II of Belgium, Henry VIII, Attila and Hannibal are specifically named.) The issue is that in most cases accusations against major political figures are more political than criminal in nature - I would strenuously oppose any attempt to scale back that guideline. --Aquillion (talk) 01:24, 8 October 2023 (UTC)

Talk:Hackney South (UK Parliament constituency)

message: 'It was represented by nine Members of Parliament to the House of Commons of the Parliament of the United Kingdom, only two of whom, Horatio Bottomley and Herbert Morrison, were returned.'
This does not make sense - were there 9 MPs or two, or were only two re-elected? Jackiespeel (talk) 18:55, 25 January 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: I don't understand it either. I see from a quick glance at top of the results section that Herbert Butler was elected three times in a row, so they can't mean consecutively re-elected? I think it's just plain confusing, we usually have something like "Blank South was a parliamentary constituency that returned on member of parliament to the UK House of Commons" as the start of the lead.

Talk:The Wayward Bus (film)

message: The movie publicity has Collins listed before Mansfield, I think that the WP article should follow that convention. Shearonink (talk) 18:08, 4 September 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Every source I have consulted - The Films of 20th Century Fox (Thomas & Solomon), Monterey and Carmel: Eden by the Sea (Hill & Hill), Cinemascope Two: 20th Century-fox (Reid), Critical companion to John Steinbeck (Schultz & Li) - has Joan Collins listed first and Jayne Mansfield listed second.  Listing someone first in the Infobox who was not listed first in the cast seems out of order.  For instance should Marilyn Monroe be listed first in "All About Eve" or Anne Baxter listed before Bette Davis in the same film?  I might personally like one person's performance over another's, but the convention established within referenced sources (or even within the movie's established publicity/cast-listings) should be followed.

Talk:Jarrow (UK Parliament constituency)

message: I recently started a discussion at Talk:1947 Jarrow by-election which I thought I should also note here as it is also relevant to this article. There is a discrepancy between this and the 1947 Jarrow by-election article in that  the change in the Conservative vote share there for that election is down as "new", but there it is +3.5%. As I have said on that talk page the difference is to do with whether the 1947 Conservative total should be considered to be a continuation of the 1945 general election total polled by the National Liberal Party's candidate or not. By 1945 the National Liberals and Conservatives were fully allied and never ran candidates against each other and indeed in May 1947 they formally merged. I think this means that the totals can be compared for vote share change (as done here), but most of all the two articles should probably adopt the same approach for consistency, otherwise it could cause confusion. What do others think is the best way forward?  Dunarc (talk) 22:44, 14 August 2022 (UTC)
