I've got a suggestion for compromise on the Cardiff geography issue, which would overcome my issue about original research. In the case of Cardiff West, Cardiff North and Cardiff South, why don't you move your list of communities, postcodes etc. into the 'boundaries' sections of the relevant articles on Parliamentary / Assembly constituencies, leaving the disambiguation pages something like this:
Cardiff West may refer to:
I'd be satisfied with this form of words because it doesn't specify which particular communities are or aren't part of a non-electoral definition of 'Cardiff West' et al. Pondle (talk) 21:11, 11 December 2008 (UTC)
Hello - i added many more references to the article of the wave. I hope this is acceptable. I can not find a source for the News Staff, as someone else added this. Does it mean that section has to be deleted ? Thanks Jonny7003 (talk) 16:51, 14 December 2008 (UTC)
I don't know why you keep on re-adding Cardiff to the primate cities page.[1] We've discussed this several times on separate talk pages and at least two other editors have supported my argument that it should not be added to the page, unless you can present some conclusive new reference in support. So why do you keep on making this edit?
Speaking of evidence, here's a recent publication from a researcher at the LSE, check out page 19 in the PDF - "if we apply the rank size rule within Wales, we would expect the population of Cardiff to be twice that of Swansea, three times that of Newport and four times that of Wrexham" (which it isn't) and page 21 - "it would appear that (i) international comparison suggests the largest city in Wales might be too small (although this is less clear in a UK context".[2] Pondle (talk) 11:01, 11 January 2009 (UTC)
I have put sources on the Port Talbot discussion page. ie the bathing water criteria for a blue flag, also the actual figures for Aberavon beach in 2008. Note it is the 2008 figures that determine if a blue flag is given in 2009. Canol (talk) 02:37, 17 January 2009 (UTC)
Let's discuss the dispute about the broadcast area on the article talk page. Pondle (talk) 10:16, 18 January 2009 (UTC)
I am currently working on this article, to provide more references & to improve it. Jonny7003 (talk) 19:31, 21 January 2009 (UTC)
I would suggest taking this to the main project for a wider input. Simply south not SS, sorry 18:56, 28 January 2009 (UTC)
The point is a consensus was reached almost a year ago, but you seem intent on stirring it up yet again. Did you actually ask anyone for their opinion before simply making the changes you thought best? If you did then everyone must have been asleep, because I'm sure there would have been more comments on here than there are. Don't you think it likely that because the template has been in place in its current format for so long, no one actually KNEW there was a discussion?? Did that not occur to you in the slightest????

Thank you for your suggestion about me being civil, and I suggest you review WP:CIVIL and learn to distinguish between a formal warning which might be disliked, and real incivility. You can also learn to distinguish between good faith disagreements and reverts and vandalism, because an unfair accusation of vandalism is itself a personal attack. If you have an issue with that editor, you should have taken outside advice, or stayed away from the article for a while. As it was, labelling them unfairly as being a vandal certainly warranted the stern warning I gave you in its own right.

You changed the assessment of the importance of the Swansea article within WP Wales rather than WP Cities, which I assume was a mistake. All of the Welsh principal areas are classed as top importance within WP Wales.
Looking at the WP Cities assessment criteria, my view on the ratings for the Welsh cities is:
Hi Welshleprechaun,
Many thanks for the second Barnstar that you have given me. Sorry it has taken so long to get back to you to say "thank-you". In the next few months I am going to try to get the Senedd up to GA standard. Seth Whales (talk) 18:57, 18 March 2009 (UTC)
Can you do me a favour and look at his contributions? Am I wrong in assuming he's marking all his edits as minor? Given blocks for edit warring, dogmatism in the face of common sense, stating he doesn't expect to be reverted, doesn't look good. Minkythecat (talk) 17:51, 21 March 2009 (UTC)
Hi WL, and thanks for the messages. Sorry I haven't replied sooner, major server problem at this end which have only just been sorted out. Anyways, it was a good idea of yours starting this WikiProject - with all those Cardiff-related articles now up and running, it was well overdue. I'd be very happy to act as a co-ordinator. Just one thing though - I've noticed Radyr has been upgraded to GA class. Was this article formally nominated? I'm only asking because as I understand it, all articles have to go through a formal review before being awarded this status. I seem to remember the same thing happening to Cardiff, where one person briefly bumping it up to GA class before it was reinstated as a B-class article because it hadn't been formally nominated. I'd be happy to take of this for you, just give the nod! Bettia (bring on the trumpets!) 14:59, 23 March 2009 (UTC)
Snowded was happy with the compromise wording four months ago - you might see his comment, "Look I qualified the statement, how about we all live with that?" on 7 Dec. I don't know why you're suddenly choosing to re-open the argument, but my position remains the same. I'd be happy with seat of the National Assembly of Wales as an alternative to mentioning the WAG; but if WAG is to be in there, it must be acknowledged that the organisation has been (in the words of Kathryn Bishop, WAG non-exec director) "transformed from a centrally-located organisation into an all-Wales organisation".Pondle (talk) 22:42, 21 April 2009 (UTC)

This is the last move for a good reason. Jonny7003 (talk) 19:28, 30 April 2009 (UTC)
Not using wikipedia anymore - i'm sorry i've been a pain in the backside so I have now decided to leave wikipedia for a long time. I shall deal with linking to the article before I leave. Jonny7003 (talk) 19:46, 30 April 2009 (UTC)
I have started adding links to The Wave (UK) until you moved it. Now I have to do the link all over again. Jonny7003 (talk) 19:59, 30 April 2009 (UTC)
What is the point of blocking me when i'm goning to leave anyway ?? Jonny7003 (talk) 20:02, 30 April 2009 (UTC)
If you revert back, then you are the one who will become disruptive as well as me :) Jonny7003 (talk) 20:05, 30 April 2009 (UTC)
I tried to be a good wikipedian - obviously I am not. Bye...for now Jonny7003 (talk) 20:06, 30 April 2009 (UTC)
Hi Welshleprechaun,
I have had a look over the article. The only one think which really stands out for me is the use of logos. The BR logo I feel should not be used anywhere in the article as the logo does not conform to the non-free use rationale guidelines or non-free content criteria. The other logos which relate to the section may be OK such as File:Cardiff Bus logo.png, File:Stagecoach Wales logo.PNG etc. but even then the logo "... is allowed only in articles, and only in article namespace" (this is from Wikipedia:Non-free content criteria). Apart from that, all other bases are covered. Good article. Seth Whales (talk) 08:23, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
I hope you don't feel too offended when I say that it needs a bit of a cleanup. Possibly splitting off the route lists into a List of bus routes in Cardiff article (naming in line with other bus route lists). Also as a general rule of thumb, frequencies aren't included in list articles such as this, otherwise it starts to turn into a travel guide article (see WP:NOT). If you don't mind, in a few hours I'll have a bit of a play with the article, see what I can come up with. Its a good start though! Jenuk1985 | Talk 23:14, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
I strongly suggest you stop editing the List of bus routes in Cardiff article, I did put an inuse tag on there, I'm in the middle of a big update to it, and you'll probably lose any edits you make right now! Jenuk1985 | Talk 02:22, 9 May 2009 (UTC)
I'm really sorry, I thought you had finished with the both. Welshleprechaun (talk) 02:24, 9 May 2009 (UTC)
I have a horrible feeling you are about to colour code the operator column, please don't. It makes the table harder to read, inaccessible and goes against standard, hence I removed it in the first place! Jenuk1985 | Talk 12:19, 9 May 2009 (UTC)
I've added the colour to make it easier to read! I have to say, although it may be the standard format, it's a lot harder to read now. I'm trying to make it easier on the eye without undoing your hard work. Welshleprechaun (talk) 12:22, 9 May 2009 (UTC)
I have started a centralised discussion here --> WT:UKBRQDRIVE#Route_lists Jenuk1985 | Talk 13:43, 9 May 2009 (UTC)
Please keep discussions about the reasoning behind your edits to that article on its talk page and away from mine. Thank you. --RFBailey (talk) 03:00, 10 May 2009 (UTC)
