Great Britain at the Paralympics
[edit]

The | |
| Now I loved your work on South Cambridgeshire Council election, which has been spoken about in Wiki-circles for several months... but your efforts in keeping the British public up to date on the article Great Britain at the 2012 Summer Paralympics has been wonderful. I was given one of these, so I thought I should pass it on to someone outstanding. Thank you FruitMonkey (talk) 21:26, 9 September 2012 (UTC) |
Presentation of tables
[edit]There's been a lot of good work done by you, and others, on the tables of medal winners. It is a subject for which it is impossible to make a comprehensible table as there are so many varients, hance the several tables.
A different approach was taken by another website, an independent wiki named Wikishire which article is at:
As the article there is basically there to list "local heroes" rather than examine the sport, the table is done by individual and by home town rather than by sport. Also the whole team is mentioned, which is interesting. I have not spotted any discrepancies on a quick look through. The information presumably came from the same sources at LOCOG and ParalympicGB as your information.

United Kingdom local elections, 2013
[edit]Hi, great work with uploading the maps for most of the county maps for the individual pages of the English local elections. However, there are 1 or 2 you might have missed: Cumbria, Gloucestershire, Oxfordshire, Somerset AND Staffordshire. It would be great if you could see to these, I have more or less completed the layout of text, sourcing and the info boxes for these pages. However, there is still a wee bit more to do but we're nearly there :-) Keep up the good work. 130.88.52.43 (talk)
- Hi, most of the maps that are missing are for those councils which have had boundary changes (Cornwall, Northamptonshire and Northumberland are also missing) and the blank outline maps haven't been updated yet - I'm afraid creation of the blank maps is beyond my image editing skills, I just filled in the colours. For more info, see Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Politics of the United Kingdom#2013 election boundaries. Thanks! Pilchard (talk) 19:51, 17 May 2013 (UTC)
Hallo there, I have just discovered that you are the helpful editor who has been adding maps to the County Council election pages. Very good work. I just thought I'd let you know that I have put temporary maps in place on the articles where you have not got round to adding a map showing the wards, so that all the articles at least have some form of ma to be going on with. Keep up the good work. I hope you manage to find/create a map for the other articles. Thankyou ConsciousKipper (talk) 11:26, 18 June 2013 (UTC)
- Sorry ignore my last comment, I see you have already done ALL of them. Very good work indeed. ConsciousKipper (talk) 11:36, 18 June 2013 (UTC)
- I am a defender of plain speech. I believe all this talk of electoral divisions is unnecessary wordiness. It also is extremely offputting for those of us still proud to use Anglo-Saxon derived terms when they do the job. Adam37 (talk) 13:39, 24 June 2013 (UTC)
- Not sure what you mean? ConsciousKipper (talk) 16:47, 24 June 2013 (UTC)
- Hi Adam37, "electoral divisions" is the more appropriate term here as they're not the same as wards in many of these councils - wards make up the lower-tier district councils and some unitary councils that were created from districts, while electoral divisions make up the county councils elected this year and other unitary councils that were created from counties. For example this map of Suffolk's electoral divisions (elected this year) is different from the map of wards. Referring to the electoral divisions as wards could be confusing, perhaps there should be a link to Wards and electoral divisions of the United Kingdom in the lead to clarify.

Hi Pilchard, I have just completed the article for Isle of Wight Council election, 2013, I have standardised the article in terms of info boxes, I have also filled in ALL of the missing data and created a new overll results table with the necessary formatting. Was wondering if you could sort a map out for the article. Many Thanks. ConsciousKipper (talk) 16:47, 24 June 2013 (UTC)
- There's a map up at File:Isle of Wight UK local election 2013 map.svg, but I haven't added it to the article yet as I was unsure about how to colour the independent candidates - the official results on the council website didn't mention the Island Independents as a separate grouping. The map might need to be changed to match the article... Pilchard (talk) 14:04, 25 June 2013 (UTC)
- Yea, I get what you mean, it actually took me some time to clarify this and I had to make a few changes but I have got the wards and the candidates with the right party labels. It took some doing, I had to check names and parties against election leaflets on some occassions. It was a real thaff but I assure you I have got them all right. The Isle of Wight's website is pretty unhelpful, it matters very little now because all the independents now belong to Island Independents but 4 were elected as Independents and the other one as a Sandown Independent. Good luck and thanks again. ConsciousKipper (talk) 19:21, 25 June 2013 (UTC)
- Just looked at the map and the colours are not right, Black for Island Independents and White for the Independents. Many Thanks ConsciousKipper (talk) 19:22, 25 June 2013 (UTC)
- I've just uploaded a new version with the colours used in the article. Pilchard (talk) 21:45, 25 June 2013 (UTC)

[edit]Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited England at the 2014 Commonwealth Games, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Tom Reed.
