[edit] The Pines Outlet
Hey people - I think we need a concensus as to the wikipedia name of the Pines. I have created a stub page entitled McArthur Glen Designer Outlet Wales - I know that it's a bit long winded, but it's what it's official called by the company that runs it and I suppose it's what people from far away would refer to it aswell. I'll edit this page to change the name, and then we can have it as this name for other pages that refer to it like Maesteg--Luccent 18:49, 11 August 2005 (UTC)
Actually - it was soo wordy - I just linked to it and kept the wording the same in this article :) --Luccent 18:52, 11 August 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Politics
The politics of Bridgend has been fascinating recently. In the discussion on pedestrianisation of ridgend town centre, there was a reference to Jeff Jones being council leader. I hope you don'tmind, but I have removed this, as it is out of date. However, I added a brief paragraph at the end of the article, trying to explain the "Rainbow Coalition", so added the link to Jeff Jones at that point. pftaylor
[edit] Famous (or not) people
What is going on with this Paul Phillips silliness? No fewer than six separate addresses have inserted unsourced claims that he is a hockey player from Bridgend. One reputable cite, and we're fine. Until then, I'm just going to keep reverting it. --Telsa ((t)(c)) 21:34, 14 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] A Socialist?
Was Jeff Jones a socialist? Being a member of the British Labour Party does not necessarily mean one is a socialist (in fact some would say it means the opposite). Or perhaps the author is making an ironic comment? Or using "socialist" in some derogatory sense? Also "outspoken" may be inadequate. "Offensive"? "Annoying"? (preceding unsigned comment added by User:212.219.235.198)
- I have to say, I have wondered about the term too. I've removed it and a couple of other adjectives in that section. If anyone is bothered, they can restore them :) Telsa (talk) 11:19, 8 March 2006 (UTC)
