Talk:Newhaven, East Sussex
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This page is very bare indeed. I have added a little on serious local interest areas such as Tide Mills, the Seaplane Base, and the Heritage Marice Hospital, but the page needs taming and tidying, plus a lot more references and some decent pictures. Fiddle Faddle 21:14, 5 April 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Merge proposals
In accordance with [1] the Wikipedia notes on writing about settlements, one of the recommendations is that, in order to reduce the number of stubs, villages and other settlements (and in this case, other things) within the place should be in one article. Hence the proposals.
I am now setting about a complete rewrite of this article, using the recommendations, so would be glad of time to do so before further comments are made! Peter Shearan (talk) 13:28, 13 May 2008 (UTC)

- I feel that the Marconi Radio Station and the Seaplane base should really have their articles expanded, rather than merge into this article. That being said, provided redirects are set up and no information is lost I will not oppose a merge. I simply feel that there is better scope to expand the other articles as free standing articles.

- I agree that it would be better if the stubs expanded but I do not see that happening. A larger Newhaven article will attract more editors and increase the chances of the subjects being expanded upon. With luck, one day there will be enough to split them out again.
