Talk:Honor Oak

message: Why was the tree called "Oak of Honor" and not "Oak of Honour"? The article on American and British English spelling differences seems to indicate that -our endings in Britain go right back to the Norman Conquest. Mtford 12:19, 27 September 2007 (UTC)

message: The section on Amenities and Entertainment feels like it's turning into a classified ads section. Other than the reference against the Indian restaurant there is no supporting evidence for the statements made. I would suggest this information is better placed in a travel guide than an encyclopaedia and should be improved or deleted.
disagree - it's a list. the only opinion is the "highly rated" on le querce - reviews here http://www.hardens.com/restaurant-reviews/uk-london/31-01-07/le-querce-se23/ here http://www.london-eating.co.uk/34843.htm here http://www.tripadvisor.co.uk/Restaurant_Review-g186338-d788358-Reviews-Le_querce-London_England.html if someone could add them.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.210.58.216 (talk) 13:46, 31 August 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Agreed that Donde should be removed and have no issue with the comment on the style of the section.  However it is a worthy entry considering the culinary scene is notably good.  In fact, arguably the reason why the surrounding areas don't have something similar is because they have nothing equivalent.  Have no truck with Brockley, New Cross, Deptford or Forest Hill - they all have their own distinctive features which could not be mentioned in Honor Oak.

thread_title:  Questioning the NPOV on restaurants and shops 

message: The following has been removed:
"Honor Oak is a somewhat ill-defined geographical area, with debates especially regarding the boundaries with Forest Hill to the south - the name Forest Hill is sometimes used to describe a wider area that includes most of Honor Oak.http://www.se23.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=3191"
It does not help define the area and just weakens the paragraph re One Tree Hill being a central feature (this being pretty uncontroversial as it defines Honor Oak).
It is highly questionable whether Honor Oak is particularly ill-defined or remarkable if it is so - most areas in London have some debate on this toward the margins.  If the citation link to a discussion board, which mostly relates to Forest Hill and defines the area according to postcode, is pertinent then a similar statement should logically apply to Forest Hill too.  At the very least not a reliable reference to Wiki standards Morganfield (talk) 10:44, 15 October 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: Honor Oak is a lot closer than Peckham to that address which is near the foot of One Tree Hill.  Interesting that English Heritage have put Peckham Rye in the address as that usually refers to either the green space, area around the station or Rye Lane.

thread_title:  Ill-defined geographic area 

message: Please can editors refrain from competitive editing of forum links.  For a Wikipedia article it is relevant only that a link is here and they help expand on the areas in question, i.e. Honor Oak and Forest Hill.  It is not important to these articles in which order but can I suggest a compromise that se23.com is listed first on Forest Hill and se23.life on Honor Oak.  The linking text should be identical on both, e.g. "a commercial community forum for Forest Hill and Honor Oak".  There is no search engine ranking algorithm, that I know of, that will penalise or overly promote either site because of this.  Please respond here with arguments for and against this proposal, thanks. Morganfield (talk) 14:24, 15 June 2016 (UTC)
