[edit] Pictures of Roman Ruins
Do any Yorkers (not sure what locals from York are called) have any pictures of the Roman ruins in the area? The stuff under the bars, and things like that? I think it would add to this article. Thanks!
Yorkies is the answer I think. (It also relates to a chocolate bar and is currently under discussion as the name for the newly merged York Athletics Club.)
[edit] Roman and Saxon History
I'm fairly new to Wikipedia so I'd appreciate some comments of feedback to what I've added to the article. Please feel free to be ruthless! christopherson78 16:36, 3 September 2006 (UTC)
[edit] layout
i tried to include "The History of York" in bold, according to the layout guides, but it sounds a little weird now. please fix if you can. --Ysangkok 22:19, 8 November 2006 (UTC)
- I've moved the link to York along the line so it isn't in the bold bit, and otherwise tried to make the para read better and eliminate duplication - the whole thing was untimely ripp'd out of the main article, originally. --GuillaumeTell 18:38, 12 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Brythonic/Welsh
Can anyone here offer proof of the fact that the Welsh word for Yew is Efwr? While it is true that Welsh for York is Efrog (see the stated Brythonic) the online dictionary at Cardiff University states that Ywen is Modern Welsh for Yew. Can anyone cite the Middle Welsh? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 147.142.163.54 (talk) 17:25, 7 April 2007 (UTC).
