message: I've mentioned the Scottish and the Welsh ones before; now it's England's turn.
british-history.ac.uk have just put Samuel Lewis' 1848 A topographical dictionary of England online. Entries vary from a sentence or three on most villages to lengthy discussions of cities and their constituent institutions. Definitely worth digging through to flesh out local articles...

replies: text: One caveat about this undeniably excellent resource: Lewis's placename etymologies should be avoided. It's not that they're all wrong, but his work pre-dates the serious study of English place names and in particular many of the primary historical sources for placename history had not yet been published, so his info is based on a fraction of the information now available. This means they are simply not reliable, and are entirely superseded by the etymologies in the present-day place name dictionaries. --Pfold (talk) 13:02, 29 April 2009 (UTC)

message: Instead of a regular holiday this year, it's my plan to buy a 7-day All Line Rover ticket and travel around Great Britain by train. Why am I telling you this? Well, I'll be taking a digital camera with me and I intend to take as many photographs as possible that can be used on Wikipedia (mostly railway-related). I'm going to try and get what I can from :Category:UK rail transport articles needing images, and I'm also inviting requests and suggestions.

message: There is ongoing discussion on the talk page for the Manual of Style (including a series of polls) aimed at achieving consensus on presenting dates in American (November 5, 1605) or International (5 November 1605) format on an article by article basis. The poll gives full instructions, but briefly the choices are:
* C = Option C, the winner of the initial poll and run-off. (US articles have US format dates, international format otherwise)
* R = Retain existing wording. (National format for English-speaking countries, no guidance otherwise).
If you wish to participate or review the progress of discussion, you may follow this link. --Pete (talk) 06:21, 19 September 2008 (UTC)

message: If anyone is aware of GDP figures for England provided by the Office for National Statistics, or a similar source, could they be added to the England article's infobox? The "Economy" section quotes a GDP per capita figure, but the ONS page linked to (currently at note 130) does not contain this and the route from there to the data wasn't obvious enough for me to find it. Economy of England#Regional variation gives per capita GDP figures in Euro, which suggests that the data was sourced from Eurostat. It would seem more logical to replace this with ONS data in Sterling which should be available, in a more up to date form, in the same place as a figure for England, wherever that is.
