Is the map needed on this page? There is a map on the Coventry page? Snowman 11:05, 18 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Recent Additions

Chaps, this whole article read like an advert, and a slightly pretentious one at that. Earlsdon isn't that much, with tiny terraced houses, 1960s shops, and several derelict idustrial units. I've cleaned it up a bit, and removed bits that frankly aren't needed in an encyclopaedic article. Hawker Typhoon 22:59, 10 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Earlsdon,Coventry

I was born and raised as a kid in Earlsdon in the 1950's and 60'and long since moved overseas. . I went to Earlsdon School and Broadway School nearby. I was fascinated to read your article and must say thankyou for its content. Keep up the good work. Regards Ian Roberts

[edit] Earlsdon flood

There was a flood in Earlsdon following heavy rainfall a few years ago. How much detail should be included in the article page? I guess that it was in the local newspaper at the time, and I wonder if any news reports could be used as references? Snowman 20:27, 27 October 2007 (UTC)

I think the bit on Royal Oak is inappropriate & keep removing it but different anons keep adding back in. Just a short sentence on the fact is appropriate unless there is something notable that can be expanded on and referenced. Keith D 21:46, 27 October 2007 (UTC)
