Photo

The photo in the infobox should revert to being the one taken from the library and the town hall be put back where it was. It was better that way. Mtaylor848 (talk)

Why do you say that? See discussion above for other views. PamD (talk) 20:59, 21 September 2008 (UTC)

The picture of the town hall where in the top box, makes it appear like an article on the Town Hall, as if that was the only focal point in Leeds, a more generic photograph would be better suited, the overview of the city centre fitted this criteria.Mtaylor848 (talk) 21:21, 7 October 2008 (UTC)

Nightlife in Leeds

Could this be made into a seperate article? There is tons of info (although most if it would be hard to find sources for) about the nightlife of leeds, and indeed the history of the nightlife in Leeds. I think it would clean up the article as a whole (it being so long) to make a new page entitled nightlife in Leeds - If enough people were willing to submit - I know enough about Mission & Space, and Gatecrasher & Mint to write some stuff on them, but not really appropriate in the 'Leeds' article... 130.88.177.91 (talk) 20:56, 2 October 2008 (UTC) (sorry My real id is mikeleeds I cant be bothered to sign in)

Hmm, I don't know if it's notable. For the main article the section is already excessively detailed. I am not sure it makes sense to mention any individual pubs etc. at all. So it would be good to move that stuff elsewhere. But remember that you can't just write what you know – you need to back everything with published sources. --Hans Adler (talk) 21:17, 2 October 2008 (UTC)

Photographs

Two photographs have recently been removed from the page. One of a floral sign at the station (which although was a nice image, ruined the layout of the page) and one from the main box (an photo of the city centre from what seems to be the roof of the library). How do I find out the names of these photographs as I think they would be both better suited to different pages. Mtaylor848 (talk) 21:26, 7 October 2008 (UTC)

Click the History tab on the article page. Find a date/version when the photos were still on the page then click on the photo.--Harkey (talk) 21:43, 7 October 2008 (UTC)

Areas

Restore the list of areas on the main page. The rejigging of this page seems to have been done slighly haphazardly and useful parts seem to have been lost.Mtaylor848 (talk) 17:17, 15 October 2008 (UTC)

It wasn't haphazard. I removed the list as the same information is, as far as I know, contained in the seealso link in that section. There wasn't any need, I think, for the redundancy. [ roux ] [x] was prince of canada 17:24, 15 October 2008 (UTC)

Most text has been retained but reordered to improve the article structure, cohesiveness and appearance ready for its uploading to Wikipedia DVD version 0.7 which was mentioned in the last newsletter. In order to maintain the standards it would be useful if editors could provide sources for your edits and stick to the WP:MOS. Thanks--Harkey (talk) 17:34, 15 October 2008 (UTC)

I re-removed the list as it is already in the sub-article and adds nothing to this article apart from inflate it. It has been an attraction for IP edits of adding and removing of locations in the past so it is best not to have it. I think most of the information is present but lots of the repetitive / duplication of information has been removed, as has some of the POV statements. Keith D (talk) 19:11, 15 October 2008 (UTC)
