2010 United Kingdom government formation

Would anyone be interested in a joint FAC nomination for this article? It would make a very interesting TFA, but I may have difficulty taking it through the process. I'm putting it forward for PR in a few weeks, once my current PR expires, so there's plenty of time. Paul MacDermott (talk) 15:05, 27 April 2013 (UTC)

2013 election boundaries

2011

2013

Have any significant boundary changes come into effect in the past few years to the relevant areas for this year's election. If so, please let me know so I can update the baseline boundary maps on Commons.--Nilfanion (talk) 09:56, 2 May 2013 (UTC)

County Durham has new boundaries this year, and I think some other councils do as well. The BBC have a list here which includes whether councils up this year have boundary changes or not but I don't know how accurate it is. Thanks, the maps are great! Pilchard (talk) 19:06, 2 May 2013 (UTC)

I've uploaded a current boundary map for County Durham - see the two to right. I'll refresh the rest over next week or two when I have free time.--Nilfanion (talk) 21:03, 4 May 2013 (UTC)

That's great, thanks! - I've already made good use of the Durham map. Pilchard (talk) 22:30, 13 May 2013 (UTC)

Updated maps on Commons for Bucks, Cambs, Cornwall, Cumbria, Derbys, Glos, Northants, Northumberland, Oxon, Somerset, Staffs and Surrey; as well as Anglesey. I think that's all the counties that need revision.--Nilfanion (talk) 11:06, 3 June 2013 (UTC)

Battle of Cable Street

I'm concerned that several of the recent edits to the Battle of Cable Street article have been subtley trying to move away from NPOV towards a fascist view point. I don't know enough about the topic (or have the time) to look into this further, so I've not touched anything for now but it would be good to get eyes on it. Thryduulf (talk) 18:01, 7 May 2013 (UTC)

A delayed response, but I've only just seen this. I reverted the user's edits, as it was clearly dripping with WP:OR and a non-neutral PoV. It's now on my watchlist, but the editor appears to be pushing a pro-fascist PoV elsewhere. — Richard BB 13:18, 13 May 2013 (UTC)

Good articles on defunct constituencies

Hello. Suggestbot has come up with a list of stubs for me that included lots of former UK and EU constituencies. I couldn't think of anything to add to any of them. Can anyone suggest (or guide me towards the tools to find) any good former constituency article that could give me ideas as to what to look for.Rankersbo (talk) 08:01, 17 May 2013 (UTC)

Police Protection Provisions

Hello,

Don't seem to get much help from these project pages but thought it was worth a try anyway.. I have just written Police protection provisions article and I need a bit of help with it. I have listed a few things on the talk page; I would really appreciate some advice. I am not great at article writing and could do with some help.

Thanks, ツStacey (talk) 10:38, 4 June 2013 (UTC)

UK General Election Articles

I've been adding turnout figures to the election summary template, where possible, in the model of Turkish general election, 2011, as I think it's an important figure that deserves to be alongside other essential information. I was bold, but I'd like to know if anyone disagrees or thinks it should be positioned differently. I am currently working my way through the 90s/80s, and plan to go back as far as the turnout figures go. Quantum Burrito (talk) 13:24, 4 June 2013 (UTC)
