message: I see this has changed a fair bit.  Well, I have slightly rewritten it.  Yes there is a night bus going to Central London, the N68, which runs through South Norwood Hill and turns into Whitehorse Lane.  It does stop around here, in fact it stops outside the Nugent Road bus stop (according to the TfL Journey Planner and my own experience).  It's not explicity stated as a stop on the N68 maps but it's a minor stop and the bus maps don't mark every single stop.  Anyone who can read maps know that to get from Upper Norwood (Beulah Hill) to Thornton Heath on a bus means travelling through South Norwood Hill to Whitehorse Lane, therefore going through the top edge of South Norwood. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Smoothy (talk • contribs) 13:48, 12 April 2007 (UTC)

message: This might not be a huge issue but I reckon that there should be a mention of the public toilets that used to be under the clocktower until the 80's or 90's. Unfortunately I've only heard stories about them, and don't really know anything solid. Anyone know anything?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.44.48.149 (talk) 12:48, 4 January 2009 (UTC)

replies: text: Thanks I was a bit tired when doing it.  I am going to work on the recreation section next.  Just need to find some local history sources.  Regan123 13:37, 13 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I have added a B quality with low importance to the project banner.  Areas for improvement include the history section to be expanded with reliable sources and, as always, more refs! Regan123 06:55, 21 May 2007 (UTC)

message: I see that there is two new images, cool.  However, I think they're a bit out of place where they are now.  For a start, they begin underneath the "Sports" headline, despite the fact that they are not related at all to this section.  Secondly, I think you only need one to go alongside the section they relate to (in this case, "Recreation"), mainly because this section is so small.  If both pictures need to go into the article, they should start from "Recreation", not from "Sports".Smoothy 10:04, 24 May 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes, it has been starting to drift into incoherence, so I've gone ahead and moved one of the images to the right hand side. I have moved the other one (with the Tramlink line) to Tramlink route 2 (if that is the right article - my memory of the local geography is a bit hazy now - pls fix if I've got it wrong). Also, I have combined the two sections into one because, as you point out, the recreation section was very small.--A bit iffy 11:15, 24 May 2007 (UTC)

message: Soon more pictures of South Norwood town will come to this page as well as others, because i'm going to go "crazy" with my digital camera next week! So if you see anyone around Croydon with a camera it's probably me! Pafcool2 15:35, 8 August 2007 (UTC)

message: I've just removed the following sentence from the lead: "A tributary of the River Wandle, which rises in Merton, ends in South Norwood." It's pretty much impossible that a tributary ends in South Norwood (what, does it flow uphill? does it flow into South Norwood Lake?). It's conceivable there's a minor tributary which begins in South Norwood, but I haven't seen it mentioned anywhere. If anyone has hard information, please reinsert it.

message: "Together with Norwood New Town, it forms the electoral ward of South Norwood in the local authority of Croydon. The ward as a whole had a resident population in 2001 of just over 14,000.[2]"
This is no longer true, Norwood New Town is in Crystal Palace and Upper Norwood Ward. However 2001 is the newest census data released at a ward level until the 2021 data is released. So the population figure does represent a wider area. It may be better to just remove this whole sentence given how old the data now is, pending some general updates to the demography data in this article?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.99.52.83 (talk) 15:39, 14 October 2022 (UTC)
