Neutrality tag[edit]

There is a "The neutrality of this article is disputed." tag dated September 2008(!) on the page. What part of the article is disputed? --Malcolmxl5 (talk) 22:39, 1 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Probably that the first sentence describes it as a "controversial housing development", and that there are two paragraphs - one promoting the development, the other containing views of those opposing the development - where opinions and other unverifiable claims are presented as facts.

The tag was added by Whg106 as their first 2 edits, they have only created and edited 1 other article in 2008. Keith D (talk) 00:35, 2 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

It was something of a rhetorical question as Whg106 did not stick around to explain! Undoubtedly it has been a controversial development (local knowledge coming into play here) but we really need sources saying so. There are a large number of news article in the local press[1][2], which could be used to build an article, but then I wonder if these are truly enough to demonstrate notability. --Malcolmxl5 (talk) 01:11, 2 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The layout of the location is confusing for those who do not know the area. May be a map/plan would be useful, otherwise text needs to be clarified.
Photographs of area as it is now would be helpful

Where is this development located?[edit]

I could not figure out where this housing development is located. Is it really worthy of an article? How large is it? User-duck (talk) 17:22, 5 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
