Hurst Castle Spit
In what way is Hurst Castle spit not a spit but a ria? A ria is a river valley flooded by rising sea-levels. It has all the appearance of a positive coastal feature formed at least in part by processes of longshore drift. cheers Geopersona (talk) 10:10, 7 April 2012 (UTC)
- The paragraph was added by User:94.1.42.74 on the 12 October 2010. It is probably in some sense correct, it doesn't say it is ria, but rather it formed as "part of a ria," but I think claiming that it isn't a spit is probably going to far. The paragraph should just be deleted -- it's unreferenced and I can't find a textbook on Google Book search which will verify this. Pasicles (talk) 19:01, 10 April 2012 (UTC)
- Okay I've reverted the edits. Pasicles (talk) 19:23, 17 April 2012 (UTC)
Citation style...
Hi. Over the next week or so, I'd like to take this article forward to GA status. As part of that work, I'd like to propose using the harnvb template short citation system throughout, backed up by the "cite web" template, with the bibliography using the "cite book" templates, and "cite web" templates as necessary. I think that short citations for articles with a large number of citations are easier to read and to edit. This would represent a change to the current "long citation" style, and would therefore require prior consensus, as per MOS:CITE.
Comments welcomed! Hchc2009 (talk) 09:36, 2 January 2016 (UTC)
- I didn't know consensus was needed for that. Anyway, you have my support: the short citation system is always better for long pages. I look forward to seeing your changes. :) Pasicles (talk) 17:15, 3 January 2016 (UTC)
- Cheers! Hchc2009 (talk) 17:26, 3 January 2016 (UTC)
- Finally done... see what you think. Hchc2009 (talk) 19:05, 7 February 2016 (UTC)
Aerial photo
Hi, I've recently added File:Hurst Castle from the air.png to Wikimedia Commons, thought it may be of interest. WaggersTALK 12:14, 18 April 2016 (UTC)
- That's really nice - thanks for finding it! I'm going to try and trim it down and get into the article later in the week. Hchc2009 (talk) 19:19, 18 April 2016 (UTC)
