Layout problem

For some reason Wikipedia likes to put the second article at the bottom in funny text, why is this. As an iterim measure I am putting a dummy headline in to the piece reads properly.

Problem is with the <ref> </ref> tags, I have fixed up problem and left heading in for now. Keith D (talk) 18:46, 31 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

First Leeds riot since Newlands 1995?

The article currently says it was "It was the first rioting in Leeds since the Chapeltown riots of 1987", which does not take the 1995 Hyde Park riot when the Newlands pub was burned down. Propose correcting the article to say "first riot since 1995 hyde Park riot" or similar. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Hopscotch23 (talk • contribs) 01:32, 31 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

First hand notes

I happened to watch their car being pulled over and what unfolded, from an upstairs window. I wasn't impressed with the way the police handled it (he was pretty old and grumpy) but it wasn't anything unusual or even that bad. What did get my attention was the way groups of people started gathering - it was in an unusual way even for the area and a lot of calls were being made. I made that first 999 call and explained to them (as their cars gathered) I thought it would be a good idea to get all the police cars and vans out the way ASAP and deal with it elsewhere. I was told in a very blunt way that they knew what they were doing and to hang up. I'd given my address and specifically asked that they didn't bring marked cars over to my house, which they did (putting my house at risk). I wasn't in but others were. Many weeks later I was contacted in London by the PCA to ask if I could help them sort some facts out (a little late I thought). The police were right that the whole area just wanted a fight but that wasn't the point. If someone wants a fight, it's better to back off and deal with it elsewhere. I don't want to put this in the main article because it's so subjective. —Preceding unsigned comment added by JS2x (talk • contribs) 22:44, 3 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Title

The sources don't seem to reflect that this was a race riot. I notice the page was moved to this title with no explanation and feel that it should be moved back. --94.195.129.125 (talk) 13:41, 24 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
