[edit] Extracts

Whilst I am not against short extracts that illuminated the nature of the interviews, or illustrate the range of the interviews undertaken by Mayhew, his brother and the other interviewers and researchers he used in preparation for publication in the Morning Chronicle

I think we aught to establish some criteria for the extracts. We all have our own favourites but I don't think that is an adequate criteria. Because I happen to be interested in railways is not in itself a reason for putting up extracts from the newspaper sellers or of the trousers makers where reference in made to railways. What do others think should be the rules for having extracts? DonBarton 15:59, 15 June 2006 (UTC)
