[edit] Poverty in the United Kingdom
I see that you have reverted my edits at Poverty in the United Kingdom. I draw to your attention Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style_(headings)#Linking:
- "Avoid links within headings. Depending on settings, some users may not see them clearly. It is much better to put the appropriate link in the first sentence under the heading."
Also, please note that Conservative Party links to an article about Conservative parties around the world. Conservative Party (UK) is the articl;e that should be linked here. the same goes for Labour Party. The article does not refer to the policies of Labour parties around the world, but only to those of the Labour Party (UK). I encourage you also to review WP:OWN. Thanks. Ground Zero | t 19:33, 26 November 2006 (UTC) Thanks for your note. I only noticed the "in use" tag after I had saved the last edit. Oops. Had I noticed it, I would have left the article alone. Good work on it, by the way. Regards, Ground Zero | t 03:40, 27 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] The Empty House

[edit] Policy on sound samples, specifically length of excerpts from music
Do we have a policy on the recommended length of sound samples? I would like to add segments of certain tracks to some articles (eg The Bonzo Dog Band). I've looked at Wikipedia:Sound samples but there is no guidance on the matter there. eMusic.com seems to use 25 seconds of a track on its commercial site. I seem to recall Amazon uses about 30 seconds.
Although it's a pain, I would be tremendously grateful if a reply could be posted on my talk page as I'm rather scatter brained and forget where and what I've asked. Many thanks. --bodnotbod 02:52, 4 December 2006 (UTC)
- The recommended maximum is 30 seconds or 10% of the length of the piece, whichever is shorter. If you can get the point across by using less, then by all means do so. --Carnildo 06:25, 7 December 2006 (UTC)
I've never really seen much of this show, and thus don't know a great deal about it, but I saw your note on the talk page of this article asking for some help with it. In case you hadn't spotted it, I thought I'd let you know that there's a Comedy Connections documentary on the series tonight at 10.35 on BBC One — might be a good source for you and any others looking to improve the piece.

[edit] "feckless reprobate" ...
... great phrase, must use regularly, or randomly like a Fr Jack with Tourettes. Great! --sony-youthtalk 16:36, 27 February 2007 (UTC)
