East Kilbride Shopping CentreEK, East Kilbride – This shopping mall has rebranded; someone tried to create a second article about it under the new title, instead of moving the old one. McGeddon (talk) 15:32, 9 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Error re. shopping centre dates

[edit]

Despite citation of the source by HES, Princes Square was certainly never 'opened' or finished on any particular date. It was an open-air public concourse lined with shops. It was built in stages and access was never curtailed up to any date to merit the idea of an opening. In any case, the development of the square-really an annexe of Princes Street-commenced after 1962 and was still underway in 1965/66. As the date is clearly incorrect, I have removed the reference and modified the expression. Note, these statements are not to be confused with its transformation into an uncover mall which was 'officially' opened in the 1990s. C. Ladds. 77.98.226.156 (talk) 21:36, 9 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Further to the above. I felt the need to extensively improve this article because of issues with passive voice and faulty parallelism which marred the expression. Word choice had to be revised to remove errors, such as where references to a year reflected when works commenced rather than when they were completed. The article also suffered from a number of errors, re. there being only one two-floor section of the Town Centre (actually three, including two with public concourse). The years for Princes Square were corrected and properly framed. The Stuart Hotel was at Cornwall Way and not near or adjoining Princes Square as stated. The hotel creator was not Scottish & Newcastle Breweries, but a predecessor component of it. This has been fixed in the way it is expressed in the article. The Bruce Hotel opened in 1968 and not in 1969. The Bruce Hotel was not solely designed by Walter Underwood & Partners. It was a partnership design project where that firm formed one half. 77.98.226.156 (talk) 22:07, 9 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
