The text for this article seems to be largely lifted from the Arboretum's Web site (for example, here). Could the person who created it confirm that they have permission to use this text? Mel Etitis (Μελ Ετητης) 14:31, 16 Apr 2005 (UTC)
Hectares and dashes
- As I learnt recently, the hectare is not an official SI unit.
- The parenthetical use of n-rules can (as here) serve to clarify a sentence's structure much better than commas. Mel Etitis (Μελ Ετητης) 14:07, 20 May 2005 (UTC)
The Carshalton gates
Editor Rodge500 knows that the gates were made in Sussex, and no doubt can insert in the article the iron worker's name.--Wetman (talk) 06:50, 17 July 2009 (UTC)
- No, I don't know the iron worker's name, but I believe it's in the Planting Fields Park literature somewhere. My edit was to amend your previous edit which implied that the gates first went up in Carshalton Park, Sussex, whereas that park was in the county of Surrey when the gates were there. Hope that clarifies, all the best -Rodge500 (talk) 09:00, 17 July 2009 (UTC)
