Talk:Bude Canal

message: about a month ago I added a sentence to the first paragraph of this article saying where the different arms of the canal went ,  but someone removed it ! I just don't understand this . All very well edit it or embellish it but do not remove it altogether - some reference needed to be made to where the canal actually went !!?? 
I have now added the sentence back in or what I could remember of it so will you please have the decency to tell me your reasoning before moving it again . If as I assume you are the person who wrote the preceding sentences then your grammar is questionable to say the least and I have changed this too so it actually makes sense !  If you want to keep the article to yourself then you'd be better off setting up your own web site ! The whole idea of Wikipedia is an interactive forum where people are free to add and edit atricles and discuss them . I hope you will respond in a positive manner or else I'll have to report you . So there ! I look forward to hearing from you on this discussion page !

message: It's not advisable, as at present, to use a single set of coordinates for a linear feature like a canal. Please see Manchester Ship Canal and Netherton Tunnel Branch Canal for examples of alternative methods of presenting coordinates in such articles.

thread_title: Coordinates

message: The article states: The full bucket had to be heavy enough to pull a loaded tub boat up the 1 in 4½ gradient as well as overcoming friction, so a weight of at least five tons was necessary, and the stroke had to be at least the length of the incline, 935 feet. This cannot be right, as the top of the incline was only about 235 ft above sea level, and so the bottom of the pit would be 700 ft below sea level, and there would be nowhere for the waste water to run. Sensibly, the shaft would be around 225 ft deep, as suggested by Harris (The Grand Western Canal), so the water could run into the lower pound. Harris also states 15 tons for the weight of water. Some gearing would be required. Any comments? Bob1960evens 10:15, 4 December 2007 (UTC)
