Talk:Edinburgh Place Ferry Pier

message: I have de-linked the historical photos of the protests pending better shots another editor may have. I find that the ones posted were regrettably of such poor quality that details were extremely difficult to discern, and thus have little merit. Ohconfucius 03:08, 11 May 2007 (UTC)

message: Thanks for taking the time to look at the above per my request. Kindly note that I do not intend to deal with some of the points you raised:
;Dates should be wikilinked.
:per WP:DATE:"Wikipedia has articles on days of the year, years, decades, centuries and millennia. Link to one of these pages only if it is likely to deepen readers' understanding of a topic." While there will undoubtedly some dates which require linking, I believe the vast majority do not warrant linking.
;References need to be formatted properly - you need to have them after the full stop or comma.
:While WP:MOS strives to achieve consistency within any given article, there is no requirement to use citation templates, nor prescription on whether the ref is placed before or after the punctuation mark. In fact, as I understand it, both are acceptable: Americans (e.g. The Chicago Manual of Style) tend to place it after the punctuation, while the British convention is before it. The only requirement in this connection, per WP:CITE, is that the "whole article should conform to that style".
;Lead section entirely unsourced
The lead section in this article is very short, does not contain anything contentions, and is but a summary of facts which are dealt with in the main body of the article. Therefore, the reader will quickly and easily see where the relevant facts are sourced from.

replies: text: Until this point is done, I cannot pass the article. D.M.N. (talk) 18:49, 5 January 2008 (UTC)

text: The lead section now referenced according to your very strict interpretation of the policy. I would point out that WP:CITE states that "All material that is challenged or likely to be challenged needs a source", the implication is that it may be unnecessary (and indeed some, including myself, consider it may be undesirable) to cite each and every phrase. A look at most of the referenced links in the article will be sufficient to prove verifiability and WP:RS about the facts in the lead section. Ohconfucius (talk) 04:23, 6 January 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Still not a pass, refererences need to be before commas not after (I can see an example of this in the lead; for instance it should be ,[16] not [16],). Also the refs should be in correct order, e.g. it should go [3][17] not [17][3] when viewing the article. D.M.N. (talk) 16:00, 17 January 2008 (UTC)
