message: I am a resident of Purley and i was just wondering if anyone knew how high above sea level it is. I have looked for contour meps on the internet but i cannot find any. All help is appreciated. :-)
::It's between 500 and 600 feet above sea level. Don't forget Purley is embedded in the North Downs to a certain extent. It's therefore essential to know which parts of Purley you are referring to. Dieter Simon 00:39, 18 December 2005 (UTC)

message: I am about to remove some information from the toponym section regarding Purley Farm, the Carew family etc. I am putting this talk section for reference as to why. The information appears to be for the wrong Purley. See for instance . It is Purley Berkshire. Purley Surrey in what was Sanderstead parish is named for the estate deeded in 1200 as per the source I found. Sirfurboy🏄 (talk) 22:14, 10 September 2022 (UTC)

message: Nothing about its use in the “Nudge Nudge” sketch?
Does Purley have some sort of reputation? Or is it supposed to be so boring that anyone thinking that girls from there are ‘fast’ knows nothing and is a complete poser? That is sort of the point of the sketch. Some reference would be useful, since it is why many people have heard of the place.

message: I have nominated this article for GA status. Ahead of that review, if anyone wants to discuss areas it can be sharpened up to ensure success, please do discuss here. I have not taken an article through this before, but I believe it meets the Wikipedia:Good article criteria because:
# Well-written - the prose meets the criteria, and I am not aware of any MOS issues. 
# Verifiable with no original research - It is very well referenced now and I think I weeded out any OR. Definitely should not be any copyvios in there.
# Broad in its coverage - I think it broadly covers all aspects of Purley, whilst retaining focus.
# Neutral - We have had no neutrality issues and non neutral descriptions have been removed. 
# Stable - It has been stable over a long period. 
# Illustrated - It contains a range of relevant illustrations
However that is my view, and as I say, if anyone feels we can smarten it up a touch more to ensure success, please do discuss. Sirfurboy🏄 (talk) 10:48, 29 March 2023 (UTC)
