thread_title:  Consett Airport

message: Consett is well known for its booming night life. Boasting a number of pubs, bars and housing four night clubs, it is a town on the up. Consett proves itself as a popular night spot for all ages from 18 - 80.
No one who as ever been to Consett would actually believe this steaming pile of crap... JW2 12:32, 27 January 2006 (UTC)

message: I found a nice image that might be suitable for this article.  I'm not quite certain exactly what licence would be used, but the 'details' tab gives 'unrestricted' for re-use. Parrot of Doom (talk) 00:47, 8 December 2008 (UTC)

message: Too much of the article reads like ad copy. I'm sure it's a great place to hang out but Wikipedia is all about the nuetrallity. Lots42 (talk) 05:22, 28 May 2009 (UTC)

message: Were Rowan Atkinson's parents really Anglican farmers? That's farmers of Anglicans, just like sheep farmers are farmers of sheep, and so on with pig farmers, dairy farmers, arable farmers etc.
Yes, OK, I may be being silly, but that's how the line came across to me when I read it.

message: Someone has done a real hatchet job on this page.  For political reasons?  Certainly, all the historical context and information on the Steel making history has gone.  Almost reads as though the steelworks never existed.

replies: text: Any material that is not referenced to reliable sources is likely to be removed. Wikipedia does not work as "I know it is true, therefore here's what I know." It works like, "this is what this book/newspaper/journal article says about this topic." I agree that Consett's steel history is great important, but any additions must be referenced. I'm sure that if you care about the subject enough you will spend the time to find adequate references.</br>At this point we should mention that forums are not reliable sources.

thread_title: Steel history, and accusations of 'political bias'

message: The paragraph starting "An alternative perspective" is completely unsourced conspiracy theory. 
(There was a source in this paragraph, but it made no reference to Consett and so I removed it) 
I will delete it unless anyone has any objections. Absolutelypuremilk (talk) 18:39, 28 October 2015 (UTC)

message: Is it worth adding to the 'Culture' section that for decades Hornby model railway manufacturers produced trucks marked 'Consett Iron Co Limited'?
It's probably the way most people outside of the region will have first heard about the place.
