Picture

Can anybody supply a picture showing the 30m wings!?Duncan.france 21:41, 27 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Scroll down the page to find pictures of the building, there aren't many unfortunately. User:Segafreak2 12.37, 17 July 2006 (UTC)

Measurements must be wrong

The entire building is only 40m wide when measured in Google Earth. If you allow 10m for the central tower, that leaves 15m wings. Article originally said 30m wings - not 20m each. It is also only 70 years old, so I changed the "over 75 years" to 70 years. Article also made it sound like the building was still in original condition, but it was completely restored in 2003.SFHndymn (talk) 10:24, 18 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Uncited text

In order to avoid an edit war, I am starting a discussion here regarding the mass block of uncited text which is most of this article. I have tried several times to remove it, only to be rolled back by editors for some mysterious reason. We need sources for information on Wikipedia. If the information cannot be sourced, we should remove it. Why is this such a hard concept to understand and follow?--TM 18:59, 16 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Because in my opinion, uncited facts (which are probably correct) are more helpful to readers than nothing. I've raised the query in general at Wikipedia:Village pump (policy)/Archive_74#Dealing with uncited text. — Tivedshambo (t/c) 21:44, 16 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I've found my guidebook, which confirms most of the facts stated in the article. The outstanding issues that could do with citations are as follows:

The "wingspan",
The fact that it's a listed building,
The current owners (currently cited by a dead link).

These are almost certainly verifiable, so I've left them in. — Tivedshambo (t/c) 16:20, 22 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
