Untitled[edit]

The section "Life in St. Anns" clearly contains material that is non-neutral point of view.

Writing style[edit]

This entire article read like it's been lifted from an old guide book. As such, the writing style is inappropriate for Wikipedia. Furthermore, there are sentences that seem out-of-place in certain sections, for example the reference to alleyways and criminals, followed by a mention of a film maker. We're also missing citations for most claims in the article. 84.12.212.235 (talk) 07:46, 23 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Clean up[edit]

There are many ways to do a clean-up, but they all rely on someone starting. Here the unsupported comments are so derogatory that the simplest way is to zap the lot, and erase any future edits that are not supported by a solid reference. We are lucky to have a lot of published material by Ethnographer Lisa Mckenzie so that can be a starting point. St Ann's is obviously very important in studying architecture and the politics of regeneration and the effects of poverty. So I will start- partners are very welcome. -- Clem Rutter (talk) 13:13, 18 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I have removed some of the poorly sourced information, clarified/corrected what I could and tried to add more info using reliable sources. Suggest additional reference template could be removed as >twenty references for an article of this length does not seem outrageously low (although can always be improved upon) Genericist (talk) 00:42, 5 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
