Source for Ringway maps

Hi, I really like your Ringway maps and am currently researching the Ringways projects as a whole. I was interested to know as to where you got the sources for your maps, e.g. File:London Motorway Box 1960s Plan.png or File:London Ringways Plan.png. Many thanks — Berrely • TalkContribs 23:20, 26 December 2021 (UTC)

Much of the information on the routes available when I created the maps came from https://web.archive.org/web/20160820084645/http://www.cbrd.co.uk/articles/ringways/ and http://www.pathetic.org.uk/features/ringways. I took large scale maps and drew the routes as a layer following the route descriptions and my knowledge of London to create them. Much of the information that is on CBRD.co.uk has been moved to https://roads.org.uk/ringways - though that is not yet complete. --DavidCane (talk) 11:10, 27 December 2021 (UTC)

Would you consider becoming a New Page Reviewer?

Chart of the New Pages Patrol backlog for the past 6 months. (Purge)

Hi DavidCane,

I've recently been looking for editors to invite to join the new page reviewing team, and after reviewing your editing history, I think you would be a good candidate. Reviewing/patrolling a page doesn't take much time but it requires a good understanding of Wikipedia policies and guidelines; the new page reviewing team needs help from experienced users like yourself.

Would you please consider becoming a New Page Reviewer? Kindly read the tutorial before making your decision (if it looks daunting, don't worry, most pages are easy to review, and habits are quick to develop). If this looks like something that you can do, please consider joining us. If you choose to apply, you can drop an application over at WP:PERM/NPR. If you have questions, please feel free to drop a message on my talk page or at the reviewer's discussion board.

Cheers, and hope to see you around, (t · c) buidhe 22:18, 2 June 2022 (UTC)
