Talk:Oakwood Theme Park

message: UPDATE* - The ride has now been fitted with extra restraints and a new audio system which clearly says: 
Please fasten your seatbelts and WAIT for a ride operative to lower your shoulder restraint.
Can someone please explain why the above addition was made to the Hydro section of the article? One of the very first things the article states is that there is now a more secure restraint system in operation. I can hardly see how this qualifies as an "*update". I expect someone from the park may have written this in. However as a point of information its serves no real purpose.

message: It would be hugely appreciated if someone could come forward with a comprehensive list of Oakwood's development since it opened in 1987. I have tried my best with the list which I believe is 100% accurate from 1994 onwards, although I am a little more uncertain as to whether the rides prior to 1994 are so accurate (they are possibly out by a year or so). No one seems to have any information on Oakwood’s very early development (for example, when was the Pirate Ship installed?). Oakwood themselves are less than helpful as they make no effort to disseminate information about the park's history.
* I have also spent some time looking into this but information is less than easy to come-by, I suggest possibly contacting the park management and the local press. --Aled D 13:10, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

message: If someone could upload a few more photos for the relevant sections- particularly the Hydro accident- that would also enhance the article a lot. The picture of the police at http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/wales/3635619.stm]]
captures this story very well. The picture of the ambulance at http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/wales/3630577.stm even more so. With reference to the last one I have given a lot of thought as to whether this would be in good taste. However it is in the public domain and on the BBC news website.

message: In the last paragraph under the heading of 'Hydro accident' there is a sentence claiming Oakwood has suffered a 'significant' drop in visitor numbers. Is anyone able to provide a source for this statement? It is a rather sweeping statement which deserves a citation to be valid. If no citation is found I feel it should be edited or removed.

message: The ride descriptions desperately need updating. They are badly written. I don't know enough about the rides. Can anyone help?Jamesb1 23:20, 27 August 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Ride descriptions 

message: I've removed the future rides section, it contained near-pure speculation with not a single citation.  Please feel free to add information back if it's information about Oakwood that is verifiable, but the article desperately needs cleanup and removing unsourced information such as this, is I feel, the only way to really get started on it. --ericthefish 16:35, 2 November 2007 (UTC)

message: Please could someone proof this article.  It is crying out for more citations, especially where opinions have been expressed, e.g. see the section on the Hydro incident, where an editor has added a claim that the ride is now more safe without any substantiation.  Half of the article's information needs a big 'citation needed' sticker branded on top of it.  I am sure that most of the information is true and accurate, but prove it to me.    — Preceding unsigned comment added by Novuscarmen (talk • contribs) 13:41, 17 August 2013 (UTC)

message: Speed no longer holds this title, as another UK based theme park, namely Thorpe Park, has a Eurofighter rollercoaster named Saw - The Ride (opened 13th March 2009), which has a 100 degree drop. Speed's is 97 degrees. Speed is still about 15 foot or so higher then Saw so that part should stay. I will remove the outdated statement in a week or so if no one else with greater experience does so first. Thanks Tony1000 (talk)
