Name of page

edit

The name of the reserve used here is different to that used on commons. Is it "RSPB Minsmere", "Minsmere RSPB reserve", or something else? Snowman (talk) 20:52, 4 October 2008 (UTC)Reply

– I am looking to arrange consistency. The Commons category is RSPB Minsmere. Opening sentence is "Minsmere RSPB reserve is a nature reserve..." - therefore no need to add 'reserve' in article title. Referred to as RSPB Minsmere by the RSPB (Twitter, Facebook) and press (EADT). SuzannaQ (talk) 12:52, 9 April 2013 (UTC)Reply

Proposed FAC

edit

I'm planning to improve this To FA status, and in the course of doing so I'll rearrange it to be consistent in style with existing FAs, Titchwell Marsh and Cley Marshes Jimfbleak - talk to me? 13:34, 19 October 2017 (UTC)Reply

Sarastro1 many thanks for promoting the article and for your comments about WP:ALT. Per the archive instructions, I have not commented there. But you are quite right, of course, and I'm sorry we didn't pick this up before. I've had a go now and hope it is OK - it's certainly 100% better than nothing, anyway!
