Talk:Fareham

message: I have snipped the following from the article and moved it here to facilitate discussion:
===Fareham Public Houses and Inns since 1736===
A list of Public Houses and Inns is taken from the publication ‘Fareham Public Houses, Inns, Taverns, Hotels and Brewers from 1736’ researched and produced by Malcolm Low for research purposes only, compilation of dates and names from various sources have been followed as closely as possible to be used as a guide to any further research. See External link section and click on (3)
The History of the Red Lion Hotel an 18th century Coaching Inn. See External link section for connection to outside information and click on (4)
===Fareham and the Public Health Act of 1848===
The Public Health Act of 1848 was an Act of co-operation rather than an enforced law, and because of this it did not appear to have been acted upon with any degree of urgency. An Enquiry was held by Mr Robert Rawlinson, Super-intending Engineer to the General Board of Health on the 18th December 1848 in the hall of the Fareham Institution (Portland Hall), into the Sewerage, drainage and Supply of Water and the sanitary conditions of the inhabitants of the town and parish of Fareham. On the 5th September 1849 the parish of Fareham was formed into a Urban Sanitary district and on the 18th September the government of the town was vested in a Board of Health consisting of nine members, with the chairman Richard Porter there were three merchants, three “gentlemen”, a brewer, a cooper, a basket-maker and a navel commander, these were invested to enforce the law. They were the Local Health Board to oversee the work. For further information see External link section and click on [5].
Whilst I am sure there is some valuable material that has been contributed here, it is currently not well integrated into the article and does not follow the general tone of the article. Are there any suggestions on how to rework it more clearly? In particular, the text should not direct readers to an external website (that suggests spamming), but should provide the content itself in a concise and relevant manner, citing the external website as a source (if appropriate).

message: There has been a small revert war over a reference to a delay in the implementation of the smoking ban in Fareham. My opinion is that, although verifiable, it is so trivial an incident (10 days delay) that it should be removed. In any case, if it were to be retained, it would be better in an article about Fareham Borough Council rather than Fareham. DWaterson (talk) 09:43, 5 June 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Smoking ban

message: Ferneham Hall is another one of those provincial theatres that simply doesn't make the grade. A newspaper report referenced in the main article said: "BIG changes are to be made to an entertainment venue which has failed to make a profit in its 28-year history.Fareham Borough Council is holding a meeting tomorrow to see how the loss-making Ferneham Hall, in Osborn Road, which opened in 1982, can be improved to finally break even and bring in profit. In the last financial year the hall needed to make savings of £196,900. And in attempt to change this, councillors will be looking to make improvements, which include axing the current vacant post of senior technician, to save £20,000. A council report suggests other options such as: expanding the number of users and broadening the age profile; reviewing the current programme of shows; seeking potential partners to move into the venue; and setting a target to achieve a total income of £1m by April 2012."   —Preceding unsigned comment added by Fareham resident (talk • contribs) 18:10, 22 November 2010 (UTC)
