Unnecessary text?

I've moved this paragraph here from the article. I don't think it's necessary to include this as it's covered in Listed building but others may think differently. --Northernhenge (talk) 19:34, 3 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The term "listed building", in the United Kingdom, refers to a building or structure designated as being of special architectural, historical, or cultural significance. They are categorised in three grades: Grade I consists of buildings of outstanding architectural or historical interest, Grade II* includes significant buildings of more than local interest and Grade II consists of buildings of special architectural or historical interest. Buildings in England are listed by the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport on recommendations provided by English Heritage, which also determines the grading.^[1]

Hi, I've reverted your edit (WP:BRD). In featured lists it is common to provide a brief overview of the general subject for readers' understanding. The explanation of the term listed building has been used in many featured lists about listed buildings, such as Grade I listed buildings in Mendip, Listed buildings in Widnes, and Listed buildings in Runcorn (urban area). I do think that perhaps the explanation should be moved further down the page. Your thoughts? Also, feel free to comment at the article's featured list candidacy.

Hi to you both, thanks for taking an interest in this article. I have copied the format from articles such as Listed buildings in Runcorn (urban area) and other featured lists which include something similar. I would be happy to move the explanation.--J3Mrs (talk) 19:53, 3 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The new location of the explanation is much better, thanks. Dabomb87 (talk) 19:58, 3 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, it doesn't look out of place now. It's a good outcome. --Northernhenge (talk) 21:35, 3 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I agree, much better, good suggestion, thanks to you both.--J3Mrs (talk) 21:50, 3 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
