I see that there's some information in this article about a local pedophile. The source appears reasonably reliable, but per ], we should really have ''multiple'' reliable sources before including that kind of information. Do such sources exist? If not, I'd recommend removing the information, since if the sources don't exist, it's probably not notable enough for Misplaced Pages. --]]] 22:36, 11 September 2008 (UTC)

Here are some Kent related tasks you can do:

Note: These articles may overlap with those on other related lists. If you would like to make a change, either do so yourself, or make a suggestion.

Changes/deletion of content

I have deleted some of the content because it was either non-notable or nonsense. A list:

  1. "formerly Menstruary": not verifiable; however it has been called "Mynstre" and "Meustre": .
  2. "roundabout junction of west Thanet": not sure what this is supposed to be.
  3. "Minster-Monkton Micro-Tectonic Plate Boundary": appears to be nonsense; unable to verify.
  4. "Minster Matters": not sure if it is notable; "becoming a Microstate like Vatican City": unlikely.
  5. "situated in a deep valley": obviously incorrect.
  6. landfill: not sure if this is actually planned; the source only has it in a list of sites being considered.
  7. "Mud Flood": there have been floods, but a source is needed for the notability of this one; the source cited mentions that part of the village is susceptible to flooding but nothing about houses being destroyed.
  8. "Homosexuality laws": not particularly relevant or notable; same laws as the rest of England.
  9. "Minster Junior School and Paedophilia": maybe the incident should be mentioned, but the way it has been written is obviously incorrect and exaggerated: the death penalty was abolished in the 1960s (see Capital punishment in the United Kingdom).
  10. St. Augustine of Canterbury: my mistake: that was relevant information. I have moved it to the "interesting facts" section, although it should probably be incorporated into the history section (more information is needed about the history before the monastic settlement).
  11. Richard Culmer: apparently it is uncertain if Blue Dick is the same person: see Talk:Richard Culmer.
  12. Eunice Scott Smith: unable to verify; unable to find information on the site cited as a source. --Snigbrook 22:44, 29 June 2008 (UTC)

Location of first fatal car accident

I have added a {{dubious}} tag to this as although it is mentioned in the source, it is not listed at List of road accidents and I am unable to find more information about it as the details are not specific enough. --Snigbrook 22:52, 29 June 2008 (UTC)

Edit warring

BLP

I see that there's some information in this article about a local pedophile. The source appears reasonably reliable, but per Misplaced Pages's policy on biographies of living people, we should really have multiple reliable sources before including that kind of information. Do such sources exist? If not, I'd recommend removing the information, since if the sources don't exist, it's probably not notable enough for Misplaced Pages. --Elonka 22:36, 11 September 2008 (UTC)
