Help with Editing/Updates

Hi all, is anyone able to help with edits/amends to the Shrewsbury prison page? As i keep getting 'told off' for editing incorrect information, i am reaching out for anyone who edits or adds information to this page, as i have a 'conflict of interest' apparently. Anyone able to make edits, i would like to add more information, historical info, ghost stories, current & future productions etc... Also, anyone who can remove the 'warnings' at the top of the page, please do...many thanks all (Josephinebeasley (talk) 12:24, 23 September 2020 (UTC))

If you have a conflict of interest, you should post any material you want added to the article here on the talk page rather than adding it yourself. It will then be assessed by independent editors. Wikipedia requires all information to be supported by references to reliable sources. Please be aware that Wikipedia is an encyclopedia and not a marketing or promotional tool. Thank you for declaring your COI, it is appreciated. --Ef80 (talk) 15:20, 4 April 2022 (UTC)

HM Prison Shrewsbury → Shrewsbury Prison – Since closing as HMP Shrewsbury in 2013 it is now called "Shrewsbury Prison" and operates as a local tourist attraction.

This does seem a sensible proposal, given that the site is no longer operating as a working prison and there is no intention to return it to use. --Ef80 (talk) 13:23, 17 August 2022 (UTC)

• Support, I agree this is a sensible move. PrisonerB (talk) 11:08, 18 August 2022 (UTC)
