message: A new article Jubilee Park Swimming Pool has been created, as part of a project to create articles on historic lidos in the UK. If you have local knowledge please edit it.--Lidos (talk) 18:03, 12 November 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: The Lido is currently part of renovation works going on at Jubilee Park. The entire Park was bought by Woodhall Spa residents, from East Lindsey Council Dec 2010 and renovations are already under way. I think the Lido is still open in its original state at the moment but will be undergoing modernisation over the closed winter months, if I am reading Horncastle News right.

thread_title:  Jubilee Park Swimming Pool 

message: Suggesting that the main part of the section on Kirkstead be moved to the Kirkstead page? It seems odd that there is a page for Kirkstead, and yet there is loads of information on Kirkstead on the Woodhall Spa page.
Saw similar with the Railway section and moved most of what had been written over to the Woodhall Spa railway station page. This article really needs a lot of work, and too many things on it are repetitions of what has been said - such as the Water Rail Way being a footpath/cycle path which follows the old railway line making an appearance twice. Would really appreciate feedback. Panderoona (talk) 20:56, 25 May 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: For whatever it may be worth: I think your gut instinct is correct.  It's probably better to summarize the information about Kirkstead and getting joined with Woodhall Spa.  And any other section that you see more information than is needed because it's covered by another article.--CaroleHenson (talk) 07:13, 26 May 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Kirkstead/Help 

message: I took a stab at reorganizing the information - with no change to the verbiage except to eliminate a duplicate sentence (railway closing in 1971 was in two places).  Totally a style choice, I put the paired images together.  If the changes don't make sense they can be reverted - the image changes are the last couple of edits on the article.  I hope that it helps and that the information is under the right headings.  Let me know if you'd like further help.--CaroleHenson (talk) 07:08, 26 May 2011 (UTC)
replies: text:  it certainly looks miles better for your effort Carole - well done :) Panderoona (talk) 07:29, 26 May 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Reorganzing information 

message: A claim of sexual assaults in Pinewoods is not supported, although a cite request has been added to it for a while. It was added during a multiple vandal attack by IP86.154.223.63 in 2010 - see here - but was not cleaned-up with the rest of the rubbish. I have added a comment to the users talk page - always a useful thing to do as it builds up a history for a possible later block.
There is no reference I can find for this assertion except in Wiki mirror sites - which is worrying as the mirror sites don't tend to update, so such stuff can be up on the web for a long time and can become apparent "fact" - just shows how vigilant we have to be.

thread_title:  Pinewoods vandalism 

message: I can't find the text stuff cited in the link through to Kelly's; Kelly's is usually only a listing anyway. Any heading begins with a capital letter, all other words being lower case unless proper nouns - if there was a book, or some kind of recognised movement called "The Development of Woodhall Spa" then it would be OK, but I don't think there is in this case. I have reformatted the book ref text to WP style and added an ISBN. The Notables: it would be right to remove Wood's granny - she is not notable in herself and notability doesn't rub-off because you know somebody. Anyone who hasn't got a Wiki article is always suspect, although those who have significant honours, eg letters above, but not including, MBE could be considered notable by default, as can professors, even if they don't have Wiki articles, however, if external independently verified citations cannot be found for honours, notability or residency, removal should be considered for the non-blue-linked. Further, just because a "notable" is blue-linked does not prove residency or place of birth either unless cited evidence is found in the relevant article - if it's not, removal should be considered. Acabashi (talk) 13:15, 28 May 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Thats really wierd cos I can definatly see it from here. Sigh. Perhaps I will just have to give up on Kellys all together, theres no point in it if others cant see it. I feel like most of its there now, but the notables does daunt me. I wonder how many will be proven to live or have lived there once I try and find them? Not many Ill bet. Im taking a break now bad shoulder ache! Thanks as always for your help and teaching :) Panderoona (talk) 13:27, 28 May 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes, I can see the Kelly's now. Obvious non-notables can be removed. I will add cites needed against others and if after a while nothing is forthcoming from those editors with this article on their watch list, we can remove them. Acabashi (talk) 13:40, 28 May 2011 (UTC)
thread_title: Kelly's, headings and notables

message: I have removed Victoria Wood's granny - not notable, added inline cites verifying Woodhall Spa association for some notables, and where proof cannot be found, added a citation request. Any continuing to lack evidence for association will be removed - an unsupported claim in a blue-linked article is not evidence. Acabashi (talk) 14:15, 28 May 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: high 5 Acabashi good job :) Yes Id worked out that just because a blue link made an uncited reference to something it doesnt mean its true. I guess we have done about as much as we can for now. Im really pleased with the result. Panderoona (talk) 17:26, 28 May 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Thanks :) - and thank you for all your good work. The old Kelly's has gone down again from my end, even though it linked earlier. I suspect it's a problem with the University of Leicester Historical Directories web site page. I suggest we keep an eye on it from both our ends to see if there is a continuing problem. The cite need not be externally blue-linked as long as the page/s in the references can be mentioned within the cites. If it is an ongoing web site problem someone will eventually add a  against it and it maybe removed leaving the information uncited. Acabashi (talk) 23:14, 28 May 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Oh dear - User:Sitush did say he had a bit of an ongoing battle with the site because it is one of the few places that isnt user friendly in regard to linking. You have to convert to pdf format to save the actual page, and it would appear that its not always successful. I did find other links where I could. I think leave it for now it might come back and like you say, keep an eye on it. Panderoona (talk) 06:53, 29 May 2011 (UTC)
