Rapid Transit
Glad to hear you're also interested in working on the rapid transit article. I'd say we should figure out what actually counts as "notable" (off the top of my head, the world's first subway system, first to run electric vehicles, most riders per day, stuff like that) and put everything in chronological order. That might actually entail a full rewrite. The most important thing, I'd say, is sources. I don't have much experience with the citation format on Misplaced Pages, but I plan on looking up the proper way to do it and trying to find some good sources to use while editing the history section. Not sure exactly when I'll be able to get this done (maybe this weekend) but yeah, that's my plan of attack. Foxmulder 19:02, 4 April 2006 (UTC)
Help wanted with Town and Country Planning in the United Kingdom
Hi, I've recently been expanding Town and country planning in the United Kingdom quite a bit and have started a subcategory called . I've really written up a bit of a skeleton for this area of planning. The planning acts, the new planning structure, PPS's, all those bloody new abbreviations LDF,LDD,RSS etc.etc. So far the majority of it are stubs and I was wondering if you might be interested in lending a hand in some way. Most of the articles so far are pretty dry statements of fact(I think) and could do with some context, structure/re-structure, debate, proof reading etc.etc. I'm a complete novice at Misplaced Pages and sure there's a heap of no-no's I've committed (Posting direct to talk pages?!?). Please let me know if your interested or not. Many thanks Russ --Mcginnly 14:12, 7 April 2006 (UTC)
