Brighton topics
Hello – hope all is well. You've probably noticed a period of activity from me again, after an extended period of not much happening. Unfortunately my time on WP is going to become very constrained again until well into 2015, I would estimate, as I am committed to certain research and writing projects off-Wiki, plus the preparation of material for publication – all of which will take up a lot of free time. Accordingly, although I've tried to get a few "quick wins" done this week on Brighton-related topics, I will struggle to fit in longer pieces of writing and research such as A.D. Wagner. Having said that, if I find any windows of opportunity, I will try to make a start. (I have to admit that I found writing a biographical article, i.e. Henry Michell Wagner, much more difficult and time-consuming than writing an article on e.g. a building.)
Separately, regarding Brighton and Hove articles in general, I am awaiting the publication of Volume 10 of the Victoria County History of Sussex (see here for more), which is likely to supersede much of the existing literature on "general" topics and provide useful background info for more specific topics. As far as I can tell, it has been "in the early stages of publication" for a little while now, so I don't know how far it is from completion.

DYK for William W. Cargill
 | On 23 December 2014, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article William W. Cargill, which you recently created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that William W. Cargill founded Cargill, the largest privately-held company in the US? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/William W. Cargill. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, live views, daily totals), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page. |

Libraries
Hi – no, Mile Oak Lib has recently moved into new premises, and I haven't been up there since it opened. (Actually I haven't been to Mile Oak for about 5 years: time to go on a trip on the number 1 bus, maybe!!). I believe the new building is completely integrated into the Portslade Aldridge Community Academy school premises, but when I go I'll try to get a photo. Also I need a photo of the *new* Woodingdean library, which replaced the one in my picture about a year ago. Hassocks5489 (Floreat Hova!) 11:59, 24 December 2014 (UTC)
- Happy New Year! Thx for your note about the Almshouses. I've had a look for more info about the Percy sisters and also Margaret Marriot (all sources I've looked at give that spelling), but with no success. Hanover Crescent is on my to-do list: I have plenty of material, so should be straightforward. I have a few pics as well. Will probably get some more pics of the Almshouses soon, although they are very difficult to photograph because of their position and the traffic on the Lewes Rd. Regarding the Hanningtons clock photo: this is an interesting one ... it is very difficult to see, even from the street, and to get that pic I had to stand about 50m to the east outside the Royal Pavilion Tavern (approximately) and zoom right in. I was going to provide you a link to Google Streetview, but you can't see it from there either. These coordinates are set to the point on the roof where it is – as you can see, it is set a long way back from the roofline, hence the need to stand so far back along Castle Square: 50°49′18″N 0°08′21″W / 50.821746°N 0.1391°W / 50.821746; -0.1391 Also, if you have a look at this photo on Flickr (it's one of mine, taken on the same day) and zoom in a bit, you can see part of the decorative surround of the clock. Look directly above the road sign above the head of the pedestrian second from the right, and just to the left of the Royal Bank of Scotland logo, and where the blue building joins the white building you can just see a curved section of wall with some white writing below it (faintly). That shows where it is in a wider context. Next time I'm out in town I'll take some more photos, including round the back in Market Street. Hassocks5489 (Floreat Hova!) 18:38, 31 December 2014 (UTC)
Hullo!
Thanks for your thanks for my Monegasque missives. I do need to integrate more French sources, but am still flummoxed at how little quality references there are on the principality in general. I've also started work on biographies of notable Monequesges, Alexander Onassis has been up for GA for a while, and I have a few others floating round. I assume the Napoleonic museum closed, and have emailed Monaco's department of culture for a list of public artworks there, but have received no reply. Feel free to hit me with any ideas...Wedding of Rainier III, Prince of Monaco and Grace Kelly, List of people from Monaco modelled after the fearsome NW3 list? Au revoir!
