South Killingholme Community Centre

[edit]

I notice the article South Killingholme Community Centre is up for deletion. Seems a pity to lose the information which might be a useful addition to this article, so I'm proposing to merge the article's two paragraphs with this article (with a little rewriting of course). Any thoughts?

Text of article

[edit]

South Killingholme Community Centre is a medium-sized facility in the British village of South Killingholme, North Lincolnshire. It hosts many activities, and has a bowling green, football pitch and tennis court. Its adjacent field hosts the annual Killingholme gala, sponsored by neighbouring oil refinery owners ConocoPhillips.

Much of the building is an auditorium/theatre, which has hosted live music, discos and bingo. There is also a smaller function room which has previously hosted youth club activities amongst other events. There is a licensed bar and kitchen, as well as a nurse's room.

Lighthouse infobox

[edit]

@Keith D: can I ask why you did this because most of my editing does the reverse of this! Of course it is fine if you want to change it or add more detail, but just duplicating the data doesn't make much sense to me.

Also, do you think the article would benefit from infoboxes for Killingholme South Low Lighthouse (Q26509968) and Killingholme North Low Lighthouse (Q26397717) too? I've included the data we have below. It might be too much for this article - perhaps better to split to a separate article on the lighthouses? — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 11:28, 18 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

To avoid dragging in data which cannot be located in the article text so it can be found locally when you do a search in the text. I could have just set the fields to blank so that data not supplied are not set. Keith D (talk) 11:33, 18 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I've never thought of that being an advantage before ... the pencil marks next to certain fields show they come from wikidata and provide a convenient method of editing the data. What is the advantage of having all the content in the text? Wikidata was designed for holding exactly this kind of data, and I think we can collaborate better by sharing with other projects. I've fetched some more data from wikidata in this article, just to see what you think. Revert if you feel it is inferior but I'm hoping you will consider this in a different way :) By the way, what about about my other question above? — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 20:49, 18 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I will revert so that things are local and to get rid of the UK and replace by England in the location. Probably need a reference for each value adding at some time as that is lacking at the moment. I do not think that more info boxes in an article are required. Probably not a separate article if it is just to have multiple infoboxs in it. Keith D (talk) 00:19, 19 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
