Talk:Wills Memorial Building

message: Splash, thanks for the references and general improvements, including a judicious change from panegyric to objective description in the Features section (which I didn't write). It seems we're bumping into each other quite a bit. 
However, I must take issue with a couple of your edits. I won't change them back until you've responded.

thread_title: Note

message: Henry Overton Wills III was not the founder of Bristol University. A 'University College' was founded in 1876 by Rev. John Percival and Benjamin Jowett, and was granted its charter in 1909 following the efforts of many parties including Joseph Storrs Fry II, Richard Burdon Haldane (our second chancellor) and the Merchant Venturers. Certainly H. O. Wills provided a huge amount of money towards this, yet it is inaccurate to call him the university's founder. See 
It is far more accurate to call Henry Overton Wills Bristol University's first chancellor and a chief benefactor. That is in fact what I originally wrote.
:Ok, yes. I struggled with how to refer to him, just because there was something...I didn't like about that sentence. But I think it's ok to change it back. -Splashtalk 00:46, 19 March 2006 (UTC)

message: I have just located the source of this article: . I'm going to have to brutalise the relevant sections of the article since, even after my recent edits, it is still a largely derivative work. -Splashtalk 17:56, 18 March 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Ok, that wasn't as bad as I thought. I think a combination of your addition of information and my removals and rewritings now mean that the article is no longer a derivative work. I am tempted to remove the infringing versions from the article's history (the first several revisions are simple copy-pastes) but that would actually make maintaining a history of the non-derivative revisions very hard. So I'll leave them there until/unless we are ordered to remove them! -Splashtalk 18:18, 18 March 2006 (UTC)

message: I took a few pictures today of the Wills Building and tower from Cabot Tower & was wondering if others thought these would be useful in the article?
