History section - User:CorenSearchBot[edit]

The history text was based on that by Hoines at http://homepage.ntlworld.com/oliver.merrington/lidos/phlido1.htm. We have permission to use this text but I am in the process of writing a new history section which will be added shortly. In the meantime the text in question has been removed.—Speedoguy (talk) 11:29, 13 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Note that a new History section has been added, not based on Hoine's text.—Speedoguy (talk) 11:42, 13 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Some of it seems to have been restored here: [1]. The source says, "In 1986, the abolition of the GLC led to the lido being taken over by the London Residuary Body. ...The City of London (now Corporation of London), subsequently took over the operation of the lido, together with Hampstead Heath, in 1989."
The text you added said, "In 1986, the abolition of the GLC led to the lido being taken over by the London Residuary Body. The City of London (now Corporation of London), subsequently took over the operation of the lido, along with the whole of Hampstead Heath, in 1989." This text has been removed. If you want to use the facts, you have to write it in your own words unless you verify permission through the processes at Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 12:38, 14 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Infobox[edit]

The infobox template:Infobox Swimming Pool has been added to the page. This is in the process of being added to a number of articles in category:Lidos. Your comments and suggestions for improvement are welcome.—Speedoguy (talk) 12:20, 16 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The Outdoor Swimming Society 2008 festive dip - please discuss before removal.[edit]

Checking the video at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ccNPL2jEExk, it appears to meet the guidance at WP:YT as there are no copyright problems and the relevance to the article is clear, being shot at the Lido and about the Outdoor Swimming Society. In terms of value, a video of the Lido shows the nature and layout of the pool in a way that photographs cannot. I shall add to external links on that basis.—Speedoguy (talk) 12:22, 21 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
