Thanks be to editors thus far[edit]

Hello everyone, great job so far! Some of the categories however were a little confused. As a fan of all London Districts on the Thames, I wonder if we could draw equal attention to those places by putting all other places in a subcategory Populated places on the River Thames outside of London.

I have confined Richmond, London as all the other London Districts into the subcategory from a repetition in the main category as it was there merely I suspect as WP:Peacock however if you accept my above point then it will have equal status to e.g. Abingdon or Henley. I hope this makes sense! Adam37 (talk) 12:29, 8 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Equal status has been achieved two months ago![edit]

As you can see there are no self-evidently WP:Peacock cases where even Assume Good Faith analysis showed people were trying to get a one-up over their typically less expensive property riverside rivals, including such cheeky foibles as duplication, by at best categorisation-oholics, but seemingly done deliberately.

Now the only problems are

  1. Thurrock is no more of a recognisable ceremonial county to those who live there than Windsor and Maidenhead. Why? Because the ceremonial counties are Essex and Berkshire. That is quickly fixed.
  2. Kent, as not yet listed, has a handful of places on the certain Thames Estuary, but lost (as some Brits tend to forget happened) most of its populated places on the Thames to Greater London in 1965 when the County of London expanded. - Adam37 Talk 08:12, 25 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
