Talk: Norwich
From open-encyclopedia.com - the free encyclopedia.
This is an excellent piece, but why is it in Talk rather than on the main article page? -- Arwel 18:12 May 6, 2003 (UTC) (UEA 1976-9!)
'County town' is the correct name for the admistrative seat of a county in England, even when the seat is technically a city rather than a town. DJ Clayworth 17:11, 25 Sep 2003 (UTC)
This article currently consists of two articles, one after another. This is absurd and needs fixing by intregrating the later sections into the first. Morwen 09:54, 4 Oct 2003 (UTC)
Okay Morwen Have ammended the mess of a poor article into something more substantial and coherent. More to follow from Norwikian 10:33, 8 Oct 2003 (UTC)
This is one of the worst articles on a British place that I have ever seen. It is a mass of incoherent disconnected drivel that doesn't follow Wikipedia guidelines. Someone just needs toi ammend the opinion and put in some corredct spelling and grammar. Pjbeef

you are welcome PJBeef, but what exactly is your prob? THere's 1000 years of history to cover, i object to it being called drivel, none too polite more like a pot-pourri of rare quotes i've collected over the years. Any suggestions how to improve, indeed such is the nature of wikki that you yourself are free to tidy this drivel yourself, alternatively offer constructive crit. only. 62.253.32.5 20:36, 15 Nov 2003 (UTC)
Phew i nearly believed you PJBeef !! i have just taken a look at other City's entries. C'mon itsa notso badda . Have courage to maintain a talk page PJ! I doubt you would be quite as caustic then !! Besides with an pseudoymn as yours to a Veggie of 30 years standing that's a challenging handle, your caustic nature may result from too many testotosterone enriched burgers!!62.253.32.5THE NORWIKIAN 20:49, 15 Nov 2003 (UTC)
All-too-often these days an individual's sense of identity and pride in belonging to a place is attacked as parochical to the increasing number of nomadic peoples who wander the earth. The great figures of Norwich (Sir Thomas Browne, George Borrow, John Crome) did not, contrary to Mr. PJBeef create drivel. I suspect that User PJBeef suffers from an all too common jealousy of the rootless to those rooted to a place and attacks the article on Norwich on grounds of incomprehension as to why anyone should bother to quote the numerous favourable comments made by travellors, visitors and those choosing to relocate to Norwich from a sense of inferiority or alienation.

Come out, come out wherever you are PJBeef take a look at the first entry on this talk page, User: Arwel Parry appears not to agree with you either. Norwikian 16:07, 26 Nov 2003 (UTC)
Erm, sorry about the comment above under my name - i've actually only just come across it by coincidence. I found out it was written by my brother who likes to live on the edge by talking drivel (and actually never contributes to Wikipedia). Sorry about him, the REAL pjbeef thinks that the article is very good and I am about to change my Wikipedia password and kick my brothers ass. Keep up the good work guys - if 'i've' spoken any more 'drivel' anywhere please tell me. PJBeef 20;16, 21 April 2004
