Talk:Perton

message: It would be interesting to include information about early Perton on this Wiki.
Perton has a motorsport history.  During the 1960's motorcycle racing was held on a circuit created from the old runways, taxiways and perimeter tracks. The tarmac was also used for motor sprints. jaguar used the facility to test disk brakes before LeMans in the early 1950's. Tonycotton (talk) 22:19, 28 August 2008 (UTC)

message: I have added a contryside section this artical about Perton.
Also I think the paragraph stating that Perton properties sell for over £200,000 needs updating as it is no longer correct .  —Preceding unsigned comment added by DanielR235 (talk • contribs) 17:17, 16 June 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Contryside Edit 

message: The removal of the full stops in "D.I.Y." is unnecessary, as both with and with out the full stops is correct in British English.
I would like to propose that if the full stops are aready used as in 'D.I.Y' they are not removed, like wise should any user add more information and they do not use full stops in there abbreviations they are not added. 
This way it avoids any disputes as authors work is not edited over a grammar dispute in either case.

replies: text: We seem to have a bit of an edit war on this one. Full stops in abbreviations is a former British convention (and a current American one) but current British usage is overwhelmingly not to use them. I'm strongly in favour of establishing current UK as opposed to American conventions in all articles relating to the UK. But what do other people think? Can we reach a consensus? --rossb (talk) 12:31, 24 October 2009 (UTC)

message: The length of the walk is quoted to a ludicrously excessive precision (See Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style_(dates_and_numbers)#Large_numbers). Also there's no point in putting the length in feet as well as yards (and I suspect that the ' symbol for feet is not widely understood). "about 1 km" would be a better description. --81.140.1.77 (talk) 14:09, 27 October 2009 (UTC)
