Hi, just to let you know Malleus has copyedited the Leigh article and I have nominated it at GAN. This seems an enormous cheek after the work you did but MF made this suggestion,

  • In the Demography section you're using metric units (hectares) with no imperial conversions, but everywhere else in the article you're using imperial and providing metric conversions. Needs to be consistent.

and I have NO IDEA what to do about it. Can I ask if you can help again? :-) --J3Mrs (talk) 20:59, 3 November 2009 (UTC)

There's a limit to just how consistent we can be! Unfortunately, the ONS provides statistics only in metric measurements, so that has to be the primary data. I've added an imperial conversion, but it's the other way around to the rest, so you get imperial then metric everywhere else, and metric then imperial in the Demography section.

What an amazingly fast response, thank you so much. MF is going to look through Atherton next as I think I am running out of "stuff". Thanks again --J3Mrs (talk) 19:02, 4 November 2009 (UTC)
And thanks for doing Atherton! By the way Pyrotech is reveiwing Leigh so I'm eating cake and hoping it turns out ok. --J3Mrs (talk) 21:42, 6 November 2009 (UTC)
Well it's a GA so thank you very much :-)--J3Mrs (talk) 22:50, 6 November 2009 (UTC)

Sorry to trouble you again :-) Malleus has been looking through Atherton and seems to have found a problem with some citations on the "Demography" section. As I am out of my depth there could you take a look please.--J3Mrs (talk) 10:31, 8 November 2009 (UTC)

Sorted! I don't seem to be able to cut and paste properly! The titles were all correct, just the link was to table KS01 instead of KS02. I'd done exactly the same on Leigh, so I've fixed that one too. Fingerpuppet (talk) 10:43, 8 November 2009 (UTC)
Wow, I can't believe you move so fast!!!!--J3Mrs (talk) 10:48, 8 November 2009 (UTC)
Of course, it would be a lot more impressive if I caught them all on the first run through! Fingerpuppet (talk) 11:01, 8 November 2009 (UTC)
Are you saying I'm easily impressed? --J3Mrs (talk) 11:08, 8 November 2009 (UTC)

Just to let you know Malleus has copyedited Atherton, well he's probably rewritten it! It's been nominated at GAN so I'll let you know how it gets on.--J3Mrs (talk) 20:21, 9 November 2009 (UTC)
