irrelevant passage in 3rd para
This is in the 3rd paragraph: "matches between the two being known as the Merseyside derby." This is irrelevant to an intro and should not be in the intro. 90.209.21.142 (talk) 17:58, 5 July 2018 (UTC)
I think there was an error on whether Liverpool is located in Merseyside or Cheshire.
It should’ve been part of Cheshire in the article, but why did you put is as part of Merseyside instead? PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE change ALL instances of ‘Merseyside’ in this article to ‘Cheshire’. --203.81.71.17 (talk) 09:53, 30 August 2018 (UTC)
- No. Liverpool has historically always been part of Lancashire, not Cheshire. (Incidentally, the name 'Mersey' itself means "boundary river"). Since the 1970s the city has been part of Merseyside, as have some areas like the Wirral historically in Cheshire - but Liverpool itself was always previously in Lancashire.

Whilst l found the article on the City of Liverpool very interesting and in the main accurate. I was however shocked and dismayed to see that amongst Liverpool`s rich and exceptional sporting achievements that the Phenomenal achievements of Liverpool`s world-renowned Martial arts greats and Dojo`s was sadly omitted (Red Triangle Club K.U.G.B. being but one of many which have produced some of the legends of British / World martial arts ).which is a shame and overlooks one of Liverpool`s most exceptional and outstanding areas of sporting excellence. l trust this will be noted and rectified as it will no doubt reinforce the undeniable truth that Liverpool and its population are indeed a unique and exceptional UK entity under closer examination /world 82.46.179.238 (talk) 14:44, 20 April 2019 (UTC)
No clear indication of what changes to the text are required. Ghmyrtle (talk) 15:13, 20 April 2019 (UTC)
Repeated fact - surely this doesn't have to be directly said twice
"and is first recorded around 1190 as Liuerpul." and paired as "The name appeared in 1190 as "Liuerpul"..." in two successive paragraphs with two different references.
It's possible to eliminate the second, but tweaking might make that unnecessary. 2600:8807:4800:2130:D956:7DFF:2A29:A5 (talk) 23:46, 7 May 2019 (UTC) (dfoofnik offline)
