I am nominating this for featured list because it is a comprehensive list of all the parishes, supported by suitable references (using WebCite where the county council has removed the relevant documents) & with pictures in all cases where appropriately licensed images are available. It has received a peer review & the issues identified have been addressed. — Rod talk 20:48, 6 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Comment "This is a list of civil parishes in the ceremonial county of Somerset, England." Needs to be changed since FLs no longer start like this. Dabomb87 (talk) 22:48, 6 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Done.— Rod talk 23:19, 6 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

- Am I a bad person if I want a map? :) --Golbez (talk) 21:01, 10 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- I'm sure you are not a bad person.. but if you want a map you can click on the "Map of all coordinates from Google" or "Map of all coordinates from Bing" (top right below the infobox) you can see them all plotted. I don't have the skills or software to create a map with all the parishes plotted myself.— Rod talk 21:30, 10 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- But no borders? ;) As I said, I'm a bad person. That works fine. --Golbez (talk) 21:57, 11 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Support looks really good to me, an excellent achievement! Harrias (talk) 19:33, 24 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

*Quick comments –

Still see a few references with dashes in their dates (I noticed them in refs 8 and 13), but everything else is taken care of. Giants2008 (27 and counting) 22:08, 15 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- I fixed the rest of the dashes in the references. Dabomb87 (talk) 22:21, 15 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Support. Per Harrias above; I'm really impressed. Chrisieboy (talk) 18:31, 9 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Looks very good. Not much to complain:
- Could you wikilink "Bath and North East Somerset" in "The city of Bath is the largest centre of population in Bath and North East Somerset."? Initially I read: "Bath is the largest centre in Bath."
- Is there a comma missing in "All of North Somerset, the other unitary authority is covered by..."?
- More out of curiosity: Why do you make the tables 90% of the textwidth?

- Response Thanks - I've added the wikilink & comma suggested. The width of tables was originally left unspecified but this meant they were different widths, because of different text string length. In response to comments I standarised them. I could put them up to 100% but unless you are using a very low screen resolution none of the text goes over one line (except where intended to) so I'm not sure if there is any advantage?— Rod talk 14:07, 12 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Thanks. Congratulations to the very good list. support.bamse (talk) 23:06, 12 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
