Talk:Heckmondwike

message: I keep adding the text about the protests against the BNP and it keeps getting removed. I too am a resident, and I know for a fact that there were protests outside the town hall. This is backed up by source material. Please don't remove this information, unless you have a reason against it being there other than not knowing that it happened. --Sanguinus 01:03, 14 July 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: Please read the source material I provided a link to before you imply that I'm making things up. The relevant line: At the end of a tense count at Batley Town Hall the results were announced in alphabetical order. / As the BNP party had arrived at the town hall earlier in the evening, anti-racist campaigners and protesters with placards greeted them with chants as a line of police kept a close eye on proceedings. --Sanguinus 08:37, 28 November 2005 (UTC)

text: Heh, right. So what claim you said is right (though your heavy implication has been disproven), and we agree the protests took place and that they deserve to be mentioned. Thanks. Also, please sign your comments. --Sanguinus 15:12, 11 December 2005 (UTC)

text: The count took place at Batley town hall. Given this, why on Earth would they protest elsewhere? If the count had taken place in Heckmondwike, the protest would've taken place there. Regardless of whether you take notice of protests amongst the "political classes", it clearly merits coverage in the article on the town. --Sanguinus 15:27, 11 December 2005 (UTC)

text: I think you're right that the three main parties were responsible for the election of Roger Roberts. --Sanguinus 06:01, 28 May 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  Divan Centre- does it exist?  

message: I've let the fact that Jim Davidson, Paul Oakenfold  and Rod Jane and Freddy lived in the town stand, but added a 'citation needed'. The only evidence that I can find that Rod Jane and Freddy lived there is taken from http://www.facebook.com/topic.php?uid=13978784311&topic=4888 which also suggests Rod died in 1995, which doesn't appear to be right according to http://www.facebook.com/rodjaneandfreddy?v=app_7146470109
Similarly, there is the suggestion that Jim Davidson dated Jane Beaumont, who did live in Heckmondwike, but there'sno evidence that I can find that he lived there.  http://archive.cravenherald.co.uk/2000/2/26/156174.html
Paul Oakenfold - can't find anything relevant.

message: Heckmondwike FC participated in the Midland League for the season 1914-15, competing against other teams like Halifax Town, Rotherham Town, Chesterfield, etc that went on to join the Football League. Maybe this is something worth adding. If so, search for 'Heckmondwyke' on http://www.rsssf.com/tablese/engmidlandhist.html#clubs  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.20.146.18 (talk) 13:28, 9 April 2011 (UTC)
