663 GV I buildings?[edit]

I think this number - 663 - must be seriously mistaken, and the source used has taken a really big mistake. Leaving apart that this would mean 10% of all the listed buildings - more than Greater London, that has just 569 GV I buildings, Heritage Counts provides a number of 99 [1] (updated 2006), while IoE states they are 98 [2] (updated 2001). Unless some confirmation is found that there are well more than 100, I'd say 663 should be removed. Thoughts?--Aldux (talk) 19:31, 3 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

My source for this number (as cited in the article) is Owning a Listed Building (BANES) where it says "Bath & North East Somerset has 663 Grade I listed buildings, one of the highest concentrations in the country". As discussed elsewhere I believe the number is because of the number of buildings - where one EH listing can cover a whole road of 20 + buildings. As BANES has responsibility under the act for enforcement I don't see why their figure should not be believed.— Rod talk 16:49, 4 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I had noticed the source, actually; only, it seemed so enormous and distant from EH's numbers that it made me suspect an error - after all, even the most reliable sources can make quite impressive errors. If the difference resides in the reason you stated, wouldn't it be better to provide both numbers - the buildings and the official number of listed entries - instead of just one? Just my personal 2 cents; I'm currently too occupied with my work and with Suffolk listings to do anything else except than bugging you. Ciao,--Aldux (talk) 17:43, 4 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Bug away. I've added a note to the article saying c 100 EH listings. I'm aiming to come back to this list later, but a few others to do first.— Rod talk 20:00, 4 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Converting OSGB36 (OS grid refs) to coords on this list and others[edit]

I have started a discussion about converting the OSGB36 (OS grid refs) on this list and others to use Template:Coord, as I think this offers advantages for users worldwide (who may be unfamiliar with the OS system) and the use of Template:GeoGroupTemplate to enable mapping on googlemaps etc. I have been told that a bot could be tasked to do this, however this would be quite a significant change and would not want to do it without consensus. If anyone has any comments could they join the discussion at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Geographical coordinates#Automagically converting OSGB36 to coord?.— Rod talk 16:11, 18 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
