Assessment Report

  1. Needs expansion and some thought as to sectioning it more.
  2. References and Citations are crucial for wikipedia, and so these must be added as the article is expanded. (See WP:References, [[WP:V], and WP:CITE for guidance.)

[edit] Expansion

Is anyone interested in helping me expand this article? I don't particularly mind doing it alone, but different sources that improve the neutrality would be appreciated. Thanks. --Alex (Talk) 22:51, 26 October 2006 (UTC)

You might like to join the fairly new Cheshire WikiProject and ask on its talk page. I am sure there are some who would be very happy to join forces with you.  DDStretch  (talk) 10:28, 25 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Pride and Prejudice reference

Hi, I am suprised it hasn't been mentioned that it was the setting of Darcy's home in the BBC adaptation of Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice.

It's been cut out at some point. Feel free to add it back in. Majorly (o rly?) 19:03, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
It waas edited out on 20:33, February 26, 2007 by User:Majorly. I'll add it back in under a "trivia" section, if that is all right.  DDStretch  (talk) 19:19, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
I'm currently rewriting it all, so it'll probably get moved again at some point. Majorly (o rly?) 19:21, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
Not to worry. I saw the message by the anon user, and just thought that I'd put it back in after searching it down. At least its now in a discrete section, so can be moved around fairly easily.  DDStretch  (talk) 19:36, 4 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Reorganisation of the article

I glanced over the article, and it seems to me that much of the introduction should go into the History section. (I was prompted to look at it in detail because the introduction, before the index appears, seemed over-long.) If no-one else objects, or wishes to do it themselves, I'll turn my attention to it in a day or so.  DDStretch  (talk) 19:26, 4 March 2007 (UTC)

I'm open to any improvement. Majorly (o rly?) 19:29, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
Ok - I don't want to muck up any plans you are currently working through with it, but a lot of the intro is currently historical stuff that is not mentioned again or expanded upon in the History section, so I just thought it would be better placed there. Incidentally, are you using any particular sources for the information? There's a book that looks promising, though I haven't seen inside it yet, called "Historic Parks & Gardens of Cheshire" by Linden Groves [1]. I think it ought to have Lyme Park in it, but I'm not sure.  DDStretch  (talk) 19:40, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
The book is listed, as well as some websites. You can do whatever you think is best, I haven't got plans as such. Majorly (o rly?) 19:47, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
