message: Surely the list of Huntingdon schools doesn't belong in the 'Notoriety' section? Or is there something about them that we haven't been told. - CJB
Owain, why have you just removed the reference to Cambridgeshire from the lead section of this article? Huntingdon is in the modern county of Cambridgeshire and the article really should say so. The reference to Huntingdonshire is not necessary in the first paragraph and should be moved to the main body of the article, perhaps where the history of the town is mentioned.
Your edit is in breach of the current Wikipedia policy on British county names which, as you know, is being reviewed, under these circumstances it's normal to avoid making changes of this sort. I'd be grateful if you'd restore the page until the policy is agreed. Whoopsie - I forgot to sign the above Chris Jefferies 18:05, 20 August 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: How can my edit be in breach of policy? You yourself wrote this in the Naming conventions article: "I wonder if we might at least agree that it's neither necessary nor desirable to use counties to inform readers where towns or villages are. Most Wikipedia users are not British and won't be familiar with our counties; articles about places can and perhaps should use the automatic map template which is more precise than the county and cannot be misinterpreted.". This article has a map, in an infobox that mentions Cambridgeshire as the administrative county and Huntingdonshire are the traditional county. Therefore by your own statement above, the "in Cambridgeshire" part of the opening sentence is redundant, can be misinterpreted and you wouldn't want it there. So remove it.

text: I think we can probably have a section near the end of the article describing the county vs. local government situation if we can agree on the wording. I have to agree though that a simple opening sentence plus the infobox is quite an elegant solution. Owain 10:32, 22 August 2005 (UTC)

text: Good, it's quite refreshing to be discussing this in a friendly way, but we'll have to see how others react. Thanks Owain. Chris Jefferies 12:03, 22 August 2005 (UTC)
