Your edits to postcode sectors[edit]

What are you using as your source of information, because I've now reverted a few of your changes due to the fact that PAF doesn't agree.

I was using the article itself. All I was doing was normalising the format the information was in. Thanks for correcting it. Postcodes (talk) 13:50, 26 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Ah, lack of reading the diffs on my part! I've got SQL access to PAF, so I'll do a bit of checking up to eliminate these errors Mayalld (talk)

You may like to look at the python postcode district importer on the talk page. I've added to it to deal with ellipses. BTW, any idea why the ref tag I added isn't working? It's in one of the formats described in Wikipedia:Citing_sources#Footnote_referencing Postcodes (talk) 14:05, 26 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The references problem is happening because the main reflist is in the main page, rather than the transcluded sub page. It only gets updated instantly when the main page is edited. Otherwise, it goes onto the job queue and can take some hours to update.Mayalld (talk) 14:12, 26 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
