Talk:West Yorkshire Police

message: I re-wrote this section in regards to the incident in Hyde Park. I felt that the neutrality of this section wasn't neutral, especially along the lines of 'Students successfully raised awareness regarding police brutality' The IPCC investigation hasn't been resolved as yet, and the section implied that West Yorkshire had been heavy handed BNC85 20:59, 10 July 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Incident in Hyde Park 

message: I think this should be removed. Is it the only incident the West Yorkshire police have been investigated for? If not, why is it the only one mentioned? There are far more important incidents in the force's history - the Chapeltown riots, Manningham riots and the controversy over the Yorkshire Ripper investigation for example. Furthermore, there is no reference to what the actual incident was, what the complaints were about or anything. User:nebbish 10.46, 8 August 2007
Yeah - I agree it should be removed. I think it was originally posted after the incident when emotions were rife. As of yet, I've not heard anything in regards to the IPCC outcome. The University of Leeds issued a formal statement saying that if any of the UoL students were to be found to have acted in a manner that would have disgraced the University, then they would be punished - not the police! But yeah, I'm up for removal. BNC85 14:19, 8 August 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Incident in Hyde Park 

message: It was a labour of love but I managed to collate information regarding the former police divisions using the Web Archive website (www.archive.org) and the 'Way Back When' machine. There were mentions of the former 'Toller Lane Division' and 'Bradford Central' divisions on one of the Bradford pages, however, I didn't have any links or dates, so these pre-2000 divisions haven't been included. If anyone has any other divisions, please feel free to add them! I've also tidied up the photos of Otley and Millgarth, they seemed to be orphaned randomly on the page before, but hopefully now it looks neater in a gallery. BNC85 (talk) 13:44, 5 May 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Former Police Divisions 

message: According to published media reports in the UK Savile was ALLEGED to have sexually molested and raped 450-1350 children over a 50 year period.  Yet the West Yorkshire Police Service has claimed it never received any reports about Savile, who was born and lived in Leeds throughout his life, except about a missing pair of Savile's eyeglasses a few months before the entertainer's death.  Is the English Conspiracy theorist David Icke correct that there is a vast paedophile network operating in the UK and that it reaches well up into the police, Parliament, and the Royal Family???  How does the West Yorkshire Police Service explain its own appalling deficiencies if the reports are indeed correct???  Is there any kind of special investigation into the operating procedures of the WYPS being conducted by the Home Office and/or a Commons Special Select Committee???  If so, when will the report be published???  These are the kinds of answers I am looking for when I come to Wikipedia to research an issue.  Thanks.johncheverly 14:24, 1 May 2013 (UTC)

message: The Former Divisions section contains a level of detail that simply isn't needed in the article. A few sentences maybe to summaries previous structures but not something amounting to half the size of the article. My proposal would be to delete most of it. 10mmsocket (talk) 21:48, 28 May 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: I would agree.  This level of detail would normally be found in a detailed history of a force (if at all) but not a general encylopedic article such as this.  Adds very little for the general reader. Bowchaser (talk) 08:54, 29 May 2021 (UTC)
