Talk:Kirkbymoorside

message: Spelling Kirby(k)moorside  The second 'k' is optional. It has only crept in recently. Either spelling is acceptable.
Kirbymoorside or Kirkbymoorside either spelling is acceptable  to the Yorkshire Evening Press which uses both apparently indiscrimately.
#Fred Slingsby didn't use the k in the names of two of his gliders
#the k has only crept in in the last few years
#it was never spelt with the k in the 19th and early 20th century references that I found
#some local organisations use one spelling and some use the other
#no one I know pronounces the k 
I'm not surprised that the railway station spelt it with one 'k'. It had been there a long time.
In 1282 it was referred to as 'Kirkeby Moresheved'.  That confounded 'k' keeps comming and going.

Help
The entry has recently been altered (anonymously by 81:107:156:175) to say that the single 'k' spelling is wrong. It is not wrong.  The reasons are given above.
We need an entry under 'Kirbymoorside' and one under 'Kirkbymoorside' with appropriate redirection.
Will some kind registered user please oblige ?  82.38.97.206 11:57, 25 December 2005 (UTC)

thread_title:  history section - copyright violation 

message: Another contributor has removed, several times, part of an edit relating to government policy resulting in the closure of bus services to the town, claiming it as a point of view.  The Moorsbuses were begun and operated as a 'green' initiative throughout their history.  When a government claims that it will be ' the greenest government ever' and then acts in a way that leads directly to removal of a green initiative then it is not a point of view but is a factual statement that should not be edited out.  I will edit the words to read 'contradictory'.
If you can find a good source that says that and provide the reference, you're welcome to criticize the government. I'd say a "good source" in this case would be a local councillor or resident, quoted, say, in a local paper. Anyway, thanks for your work on this page. Bmcln1 (talk) 17:07, 19 September 2013 (UTC)

replies: text: City Population site is generally reliable. There may be a problem with defining the extent of Kirkbymoorside, but that's only a guess. Bmcln1 (talk) 15:08, 8 January 2021 (UTC)
