Assessment Report

1. Article needs to be massively expanded using Wikipedia:WikiProject UK geography/How to write about settlements as a guide.
2. It should make use of sections, using Wikipedia:WikiProject UK geography/How to write about settlements as a guide.
3. Infobox to be added (use Template:Infobox UK place.)
4. Photos need to be added.
5. References and Citations are crucial for wikipedia, and so these must be added as the article is expanded. Make sure that as many as possible are "in-line" citations.(See WP:References, WP:V, and WP:CITE for guidance.)

[edit] Response to Assessment

I've added a photo (unfortunately I don't have a better, and there isn't much at Geograph), added a few section headings and improved the referencing. I'd rather hold off on the infobox until there's a longer article, to prevent whitespace encroachment. Espresso Addict 03:38, 11 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Modern population

I can't access Wirswall at the Neighbourhood Statistics website for some reason[1], so have no source for a modern population figure. Espresso Addict 19:04, 12 August 2007 (UTC)

I have also had this problem with other civil parishes in Cheshire. I suspect it could be because some are small, and they have combined parish council meetings with neighbouring parishes, so that it is the combined names that must be looked up on the site. However, I don't know this is the reason for sure, it is just a strong suspicion. I know that in two other cases, though, it doesn't work (Tabley Parish Council covers the two civil parishes of Tabley Inferior and Tabley Superior, yet the parishes are accessible separately, as is the case with Somerford and Somerford Booths). Crewe and Nantwich have this problem on a much smaller scale than Chester (district), however. Somewhere (we've had a reorganisation at home), I have a list of the combined councils and what parishes make them up. I was going to add these to the appropriate articles, and I think this may be useful.  DDStretch  (talk) 09:02, 15 August 2007 (UTC)

There are several C&N ones I can't seem to access, or get something that looks definitely wrong (Checkley cum Wrinehill, Coole Pilate, Doddington, Edleston, Egerton, Henhull, Hurleston, Lea, Poole, Ridley & Wirswall). I was thinking about e-mailing the website to see if they could sort out the problem. I don't think it's just that they have been combined with something else, as the search engine seems to use simple search which should find the compound names. If you have a definitive list of combined councils that would definitely be an addition to the articles. Espresso Addict 19:59, 15 August 2007 (UTC)
