Talk:Caersws

message: Does Declan Patrick MacManus deserve any mention here and if so why? Martinevans123 (talk) 20:20, 17 November 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: He has been the subject of the same repeated "controversy" additions, by an apparent succession of anon ip editors, for a number of months now. There is no clear consensus that this so-called "controversy" is in any way generally notable. Martinevans123 (talk) 13:53, 4 June 2014 (UTC)

text: The latest addition provides only one source for only one part of the claim. Martinevans123 (talk) 08:48, 6 June 2014 (UTC)

text: I've moved this discussion from my Talk Page to here, as this is the best place to discuss content for this article. Please don't tell me what I would or would not have noticed "if I had driven through Caersws a few years ago". And this is not a "personal vendetta" of any kind. I simply think the information is entirely non-notable with regard to this article. But let's see what other editors think - if they agree with you, then it is possible that the information could be added. Meanwhile, it might repay you to familiarise yourself with the relevant Wikipedia policy - WP:NOTABILITY. If it really is "an important part of the history of the village" you should be able to find several good sources instead of one rather poor one from an 11-year old Rough Guide and one non-existent one. Thanks. Martinevans123 (talk) 18:38, 18 September 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: Can't seem to find the article that the Powys County Times reference referred to - and when I searched the publisher's website for any reference to 'Elvis Costello' I got a 'None found' response:  But then again, I'm the first to admit that I am not the most technically competent person!

replies: text: Did the same, with the same result. And nothing for the defunct activity centre. Xanthomelanoussprog (talk) 19:36, 18 September 2015 (UTC)

text: Please stop re-adding this material.  It's largely unsourced, the only sourced part is outdated, and it's clearly and directly contrary to policy at WP:BLP.   Ghmyrtle (talk) 13:03, 7 December 2016 (UTC)

text: We've had to suffer this nonsense for nearly five years now. Martinevans123 (talk) 11:08, 18 October 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: ... and another four years further on....  Annoying.   Ghmyrtle (talk) 17:25, 21 July 2021 (UTC)

text: The latest IP geolocates to Berlin. Martinevans123 (talk) 17:56, 21 July 2021 (UTC)

text: .... and on it goes.  Do you think WP:PROTECTION is justified, given this has gone on for at least nine twelve years, with no sign of it stopping?  Ghmyrtle (talk) 15:37, 22 July 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes, absolutely. Now kind applied User:MelanieN. Martinevans123 (talk) 18:02, 22 July 2021 (UTC)
thread_title:  Elvis Costello 

message: I was born and raised in Caersws. I wonder if it the editors would be amenable to adding a bit more to the page about tourism, but for information's sake and to encourage more visitors. The locals would welcome them gladly.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.100.44.33 (talk) 00:14, 25 September 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: If it's reliably sourced and neutral information, yes.  If it's promotional material, no - see WP:SOAP.   Ghmyrtle (talk) 13:06, 7 December 2016 (UTC)

message: >> It has been argued that the site may retain a Roman-era dedication to Zeus <<
That argument must be one of the most unpersuasive ever -- given that the Romans called Zeus "Iuppiter" (sounds nothing like sŵs) -- and the reference given appears to boil down to the surmise of just one local resident! -- Picapica (talk) 00:47, 16 September 2019 (UTC)
