Talk:Buckie

message: Someone is clearly puting a lot of effort into the article but just isn't in the correct style.  The ideal template for a town is Evanton.  This does not use patently untrue terms such as Buckie can probably be regarded as the point of origin of the Scottish shellfish industry or This never came to pass and Buckie was left with what is probably the grandest church in NE Scotland outside of Aberdeen.  At times it reads like a tourist pamphlet and really isn't doing the town any favours.  I am trying to be constructive here and am willing to help make it more encyclopaedic. --Bill Reid | Talk 16:52, 1 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Hello, Phil.  Been away from WP for a while and missed your reply.  On re-reading my message I would have to say that it wasn't exactly written encouragingly - sorry.  What I'm saying is that to attribute to Buckie the accolade of being the point of origin of the Scottish shellfish industry can't be correct.  Even the Moray Seafoods web-site that you use as your source doesn't make that claim.  There is no single place that you could point your finger at and say that's where it all began.  Prawn fishing takes place all round the Scottish coast (and beyond) with major processors found all over Scotland - see .  You could probably justify Buckie as being a major shellfish processing town—but the point of origin for the entire shellfish industry which includes the fishermen, boats, ancillary workers, etc?  As regards St Peters Church, again you're source website doesn't make the claim that it ...is arguably the grandest church in NE Scotland outside of Aberdeen. or if it does I couldn't locate it.   Nevertheless it is a striking building but you could argue that Forres and Nairn parish churches are its equal—and that's what I mean, unless you have a cast-iron independent citation then its our own points of view which shouldn't be in articles.

message: Interesting reading but non-encyclopedic, unsourced and reads as original research being placed in the article second-hand without permission from the source, at present.

thread_title: re. An Essay

message: The whole area from Portgordon to Cullen is a hidden Gem. We visited recently and noted the sunniest days in May, great walks and what was evident was the beatiful edwardian villas in the town of Buckie. Clearly there was a lot of wealth from fishing related industries in the early part of the 20th Century here. One of the most attractive small harbour villages is Findochty and Strathlene bay is good for walks too.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.9.66.201 (talk) 17:11, 28 July 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  The surrounding area - For Tourists 

message: Someone just did a copy edit which was reverted and no reason given.  The edits looked like an improvement and would appreciate a reason why the article was reverted.  The article is not written in an encyclopedic manner (as I said years ago) and really needs people to try and get this sorted.  One section is an obvious copy-vio. I will go over the article and hopefully sort out the tourist information style and remove the copy-vio unless the main contributor decides to do it first, which would be preferable. --Bill Reid | (talk) 18:32, 20 August 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Reason for revert? 

message: I added a link at the top of the article pointing to the other meaning of "Buckie". This was twice reverted for no good reason as far as I can see. The first reversion (here) made no sense, so I reinstated the hatnote. This addition was reverted again (here), making reference to "vandalism" (perhaps a mistaken, faulty description), but also indicating that "jakie vernacular" shouldn't be catered for.
In my opinion, "Buckie" is a well-established informal term for the tonic wine, and it should not matter what type of person might use the term. So I am reinstating the hatnote again, and I hope anyone with views on this can discuss things here first.

message: Re. the entry:
"Kickboxing is another leisure activity available in Buckie. There is a dedicated martial arts studio based in the Douglas Centre and it is fast becoming a popular pastime.[citation needed]"
Surely this an attempt by a private business to advertise on this page. Should this line not be removed? Ivmoz (talk) 15:32, 3 January 2014 (UTC)

message: "Rove Bucky is far from understandable and could be a scribe's error and should perhaps read Over Bucky as occurs in older title deeds, in distinction to Nether Buckie."
I think this means "Buckie Headland/Point" (Rubha). The word is anglicised as Rhu- or Row- in other areas of Scotland. 31.94.69.222 (talk) 11:15, 19 February 2024 (UTC)
