Stone de Croze
editI added the following section:
- Features
- In the 1970s and early 1980s the paper regularly ran a cartoon strip entitled Stone de Croze by Alan Guppy, featuring "The Original Guernseyman". Two books of these cartoons have been published.
and referenced this with:
- Stone de Croze - The Original Guernseyman on Amazon
- Stone de Croze - The Original Guernseyman Volume 2 on Amazon
This was removed, primarily because in isolation it gave undue prominence to this one feature (using Amazon as a reference was also a concern). If more content is added, I guess this can go back again.

Guernsey Press and Star → Guernsey Press – The newspaper is rarely referred to with the "and Star". The newspapers website is guernseypress.com, and their logos on the site simply use "Guernsey Press". On the island, too, it's rarely referred to as Guernsey Press and Star. Additionally, Guernsey Press currently redirects to this article. TheKaphox T 15:19, 12 November 2016 (UTC)--Relisting. Fuortu (talk) 12:58, 20 November 2016 (UTC)
- Question Is there confusion between the "Guernsey Press" (http://guernseypress.com/) and the "Guernsey Press and Star" (http://www.guernsey-press.com/)? They appear to be two separate things. 71.41.210.146 (talk) 13:44, 13 November 2016 (UTC)
- They both point to the same website, as do all the searches for both terms. I can't find any differences. I don't believe their is confusion. TheKaphox T 14:04, 13 November 2016 (UTC)
- @TheKaphox: Oops, my bad! I was reading http://www.guernsey-press.com/index.html, which does look like something different, but stripped off the
index.html, which usually makes no difference, when copying the link into my comment above. But yes, with that stripped off, it redirects, suggesting that they are in fact the same thing. (I may have found an old stale web page predating an acquisition or something.) 71.41.210.146 (talk) 14:46, 13 November 2016 (UTC)
