Talk:Hendon

message: Golders Green, Edgware, etc. are places in Hendon.  It's like saying that Manhattan is a part of New York.  Lets keep them where they belong.
:Edgware is not in Hendon, it is a separate place which is in the boroughs of Harrow and Barnet. While it has previously been in administrative areas with Middlesex or Hendon in the title, it has never been part of the place which is Hendon. This is in true in the same sence as Edgware is not part of the town named Barnet/High Barnet/Chipping Barnet.  137.222.221.195 (talk) 21:31, 24 November 2008 (UTC)

message: Hi Cool, 
I can call you by your first name I trust, and I hope you will feel free to recipricate? Childs Hill and Golders Green are to Hendon, what Brooklyn and Manhattan are to New York. You are confusing a railway station with a district, its as if to say that JFK is the centre of New York. But it is understandable given that much of the way people structure place is based on post codes (I believe "zip" code in the USA) and railway stations. I understand what you are trying to say, its just not the case here in Hendon.
Clitterhouse is very much a place (although for a very long time it was called Brent after the station. Since a least the 19th Century it was called sometimes Brent Cross, and recently it has sometimes called Cricklewood (although that is not correct). Its centre is Clitterhouse Farm, home of Hendon FC for a long time. I will of course put back the Burroughs (also called the Burrows) as anyone who has lived in the district for any period of time will be looking for it. These are not simply "hooks" to "hang" articles. 
As a Finchley man, and to be absolutley clear on the matter, I have just double checked this with a senior resident of Colindale(Hendon)and Clitterhouse is very definatly Hendon, as is Golders Green and so on.
I'm still struggling with the how wiki is formatted, and understand that there may be elements that don't work very well, and I hope you will understand that this is not easy for me as a dslexic.  
Again thank you, always good to have imput. 
Hugh 
 
You have been contributing long enough - you should know by now that  is not needed when forming lists!
From the Hendon page I have taken out Boroughs which was a stupid link. But I have left the red links.
Clitterhouse (which sounds anatomical!) does not appear on maps but has been used an hook on which to hang a good article. I suspect it is by User:Hugh Petrie though for some reason he did not sign in. Possibly some of the other unlikely names are actually for articles he is planning to write.
In the same way, I do not recognise Coombe as a place name in Croydon - as the name of some roads but not as a place name. Then I read the excellent article for which it had been used as an hook and found that have been living in Coombe for the last thirty years! 
Any reply here, I shall be watching. RHaworth 11:07, 2005 Feb 25 (UTC)
Lets discuss on the Hendon page.  I'm not the one that's been adding these place names--you seem to know more than I do about them. CoolGuy 21:58, 25 Feb 2005 (UTC)
thread_title: More info on places

message: These were a terrible mess with lots overlap, duplicated articles etc. Each "History of..." article should now directly relate to a district page: 
*Arkley
**History of Arkley
*Church End, Finchley
**History of Church End Finchley
*East Finchley
**History of East Finchley
*Edgware
**History of Edgware
*Golders Green
**History of Golders Green
*Mill Hill
**History of Mill Hill
*North Finchley
**History of North Finchley
The articles about formal parishes/districts should be named as such - otherwise it is consfusing to the reader as the parish/urban district/municipal boroughs usually covered a greater area than the town they were named after. These articles take the form of the name and status when it was abolished in 1965:
*Municipal Borough of Hendon
*Municipal Borough of Finchley
Redirects can be created for example from Hendon Urban District and the changing status shown in the article. As all these districts are historical anyway the articles do not need to be called "History of..." Please follow these naming conventions. MRSC 10:43, 30 October 2005 (UTC)
