The dissapearance of Birmingham
editSorry about those! I'm reading it direct from the maps, and I'm missing the big cities because their names aren't poking out so well underneath all those roads!
Do you think it would be sensible to try to identify sub-conurbations of the London commuter belt? Southend/Thurrock and maybe Farnham/Aldershot/Camberley/Bracknell/Reading. And thinking about listing the entire coast between Seaford and Selsey (or maybe just Bognor).
I'm sorry about my harsh words on Talk:List of English cities by population. I just found it a particularly bizarre list, and it had no warning that people shouldn't take the values too literally. Perhaps you can come up with some wording on the page to do this that would be more acceptable to you. Morwen - Talk 12:58, 10 October 2005 (UTC)
- The Sheffield urban area figure has been seperated into sheffield plus some of its suburbs (namely Beighton, Chapeltown and Mosborough) so the figure is a aggregate of these figures. josh 17:43, 27 October 2005 (UTC)
- Beighton, Chapeltown and Mosborough aren't suburbs of Sheffield but Sheffield itself. Stocksbridge is in the metropolitan borough of Sheffield but not in Sheffield. The population living in Sheffield's city district is 516100 and not 439866 as you've put it. You must be mistaking Sheffield's conurbation figures which include Dronfield, Chesterfield and Rovvrem and the district's population figures. These figures are confirmed on the Sheffield city council website. Captain scarlet 09:13, 28 October 2005 (UTC)
- To continue on the topic of your erronous data you've once again decided to publish Sheffield City Council which knows more than you do
- Thankfully other articles on Wikipedia do take in consideration correct figures and the other list of towns, cities and boroughs of England is correct. I'll be damned if the city of Leeds is larger than Sheffield, it never has been and isn't as it is. Captain scarlet 23:46, 28 October 2005 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading Image:Wolverhampton Princes Square.JPG. I notice the image page currently doesn't specify who created the image, so the copyright status is therefore unclear. If you have not created the image yourself then you need to argue that we have the right to use the image on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the image yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page.
If the image also doesn't have a copyright tag then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture then you can use {{GFDL}} to release it under the GFDL. If you can claim fair use use {{Non-free fair use in|article name}} or {{fairuse}}. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.
If you have uploaded other images, please check that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. You can find a list of image pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --Admrboltz 00:11, 7 January 2006 (UTC)
- Unfortunatly non commercial use only is not allowed on Wikipedia (see template {{noncommercial}}). What I would suggest would either be {{GFDL-self}} or {{Cc-by-sa}}. --Admrboltz (T | C) 17:47, 8 January 2006 (UTC)
