Bias

This article has some bias.

Only some? Let's try harder, people! -- John Fader (talk · contribs) 02:26, 9 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Tabled

In rewriting the thing about the cursed stone, I deliberately avoided the word "tabled". While I agree that british articles should be written in british english, "tabled" means essentially the opposite of what you'd imagine in american english, and thus ran the risk of really confusing some poor yank reading the article. In britspeak, "tabled" means "proposed", but in yanktalk it means "postponed until another meeting". -- John Fader (talk · contribs) 02:26, 9 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Curse

This really interests me and I'd like to hear more about it, especially since I actually am a Carlisle. RcSamurai

Flood picture

If you look in the history of this page you'll see I tried to put in a picture of the flood I took, but it didn't align quite right. I'd appreciate it if someone better than me could have a go. Or maybe you don't think there should be one? I do, as it is quite a big part of the city's recent history. Thanks. Microwave85 23:07, 5 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Capital of England?

Ive been lead to believe that Edward I held TWO parliaments there. One in 1300 and the other in 1307. Would that make Carlisle the English Capital city intead of London on those two dates?

Latin Name

Google returns some web pages giving Luguvalium as the Roman name for Carlisle. Anyone have a source? --Gil Gamesh 22:40, 31 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Article needs expansion

This article needs significant expansion. The city is of great historical importance yet some small villages in Cumbria have longer and more detailed arguments. I have split transport out into a new section.
