Hopefully I will be able to check the original text this week. However, I have searched the Statue Law Database for any mention of "Epping Forest Act" and it only mentions older ones that have been repealed. So unless the relevant section (section 45) was repealed by a private/local Act at some point, it is highly likely to still read the same. ninety:one (reply on my talk) 22:59, 17 January 2010 (UTC)
Found the original text, from section 45:
(1) "The powers and duties of the metropolitan police and of the police of the county of Essex in relation to public safety and preservation of order and protection of property shall extend to the Forest."
(2) "Nothing in this Act shall exted the power of levying police rates to any person or property to which he same would not have been extended if this Act has not been passed."
(3) stated that the conservators could pay the Met and Essex for their services. ninety:one (reply on my talk) 23:23, 4 March 2010 (UTC)
Sorry - I thought it was clear from the reference to Met officers in the first sentence, but it doesn't hurt to be clear! By the way, I got initial replies back from Cumbria and the CNC about the whole S59 Energy Act thing in relation to the Bird shootings - they're still deciding on some of the information but there's nothing useful in what has been released so far. ninety:one (reply on my talk) 15:13, 23 July 2010 (UTC)
I'm almost certain he is a JP - the Met Commissioner ceased to be one in 1971 by the Administration of Justice Act (section 10, Sch. 1) but no mention was made of the CoLP Commissioner. Will try to check this out soon. ninety:one (reply on my talk) 23:43, 8 January 2011 (UTC)

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process.

This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Your recent editing history shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.
Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

Hi. I see in a recent addition to Crown Prosecution Service you included material from a webpage that is available under an Open Government Licence. That's okay, but you have to give attribution so that our readers are made aware that you copied the prose rather than wrote it yourself. I've added the attribution for this particular instance. Please make sure that you follow this licensing requirement when copying from compatibly-licensed material in the future. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 21:10, 28 May 2019 (UTC)
Hi there, thanks for your edit. Where does the Flying Squad fit in the overall Met Police structure? I have noticed that some squads are missing such as Trident and Flying Squad but very scant information available online. Thanks. CityPride (talk) 12:11, 8 July 2020 (UTC)
Please provide a citation for the assertion "In law, there is no equivalency to regular police ranks." That is not something the Act says: it is simply your interpretation of the Act (and therefore not suitable for inclusion), unless you can cite it to a reliable source.

Given your stand on things like trivial lists of vehicles in police articles, I wondered if you had an opinion on the same thing in Fire & Rescue articles. Over the past few months I have cleaned up nearly all of the UK F&R articles (see my user page). Mostly I have deleted long lists of fire stations and the individual vehicles posted to each and every one. Occasionally an editor pops up who objects and rather than get into an unhelpful 1:1 edit war, it would be useful to have someone else add weight to the discussion (either way). I just reverted a big add of such trivia at Suffolk Fire and Rescue Service then immediately initiated a discussion at Talk:Suffolk Fire and Rescue Service. If it's of interest then take a look at the history of the article and the talk page discussion. 10mmsocket (talk) 18:17, 11 July 2021 (UTC)

Nice catch on the infobox. Any objections if I go update the rest of the England & Wales police force infoboxes? Or you could of course check them yourself! 10mmsocket (talk) 09:28, 4 January 2023 (UTC)
Hi. I've commented on Talk:Law enforcement in the United Kingdom#Chinese police overseas service stations but various MPs are recorded in Hansard as stating Chinese police overseas service stations are operating in the UK, albeit without jurisdiction. Darrelljon (talk) 11:09, 28 March 2023 (UTC)
Hi, regarding my removal of the phrase "The Ports Policing Unit is responsible for policing all ports in Dorset including Poole Harbour, Swanage Harbour, Portland Harbour, Weymouth Harbour, Christchurch Harbour and Bournemouth Airport.". You reverted my edit as "This will need a source. Even if there is a port police force, the territorial force for the police area (Dorset in this case) are still legally responsible for for law and order throughout police area as per Police Act 1996.".
I must respectfully disagree - the initial phrase is completely unsourced. The phrase "The Ports Policing Unit is responsible for policing all ports in Dorset including Poole Harbour, Swanage Harbour, Portland Harbour, Weymouth Harbour, Christchurch Harbour and Bournemouth Airport." surely needs sourcing instead?
