[edit] Sunshine

Does anybody have a sunnier photograph rather than the drab grey one we currently have? --DafyddLlyr

The one on the beach looks fine now. I do have a better one from Penglais Hill (Panorama), but I don't have time to find out how to put it there at the moment! TheHugmonsters 21:37, 20 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Music

Are these bands actually relevant?

The Crimea the lead singer is from Aberystwyth but the band is from London. The Crocketts I can understand being on the page. David Mysterious seems to be relevant, perhaps more so if there were an article. Hot Puppies and The Poppies fair enough but it would be better if there were an article for The Poppies. --Aimaz 12:24, 23 June 2006 (UTC)

Good thinking, I've taken the appropriate action. - FrancisTyers · 12:41, 23 June 2006 (UTC)

No Radio Luxembourg? Really?

[edit] Transport details

The transport information needs updating. I need to check on the current status of th Traws Cambria service as I am not convinced we still have a direct service to Cardiff. I will do this as soon as my dissertation is submitted unless anyone else gets a chance first. Rebeccaj munro 22:38, 25 March 2007 (UTC)

There is one to Cardiff, it's just not as regular. I'm from Carmarthen, and it's the same bus, the X40. I think it only goes as far as Cardiff once or twice a day, 6 days a week. I went to Cardiff on it recently. There used to be one from Bangor to Bristol, but that doesn't run anymore. 144.124.16.33 16:13, 1 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] AberWiki?

Just came across http://aberwiki.org/ which says “The AberWiki is written mainly by (people) of the seafront town of Aberystwyth in west Wales. ..” Would this be an appropriate link to add to external links section? --EarthFurst 21:03, 12 August 2007 (UTC)

I'd argue not, as not only is it written almost entirely by Computer Science students from the University (and so only represents a small fraction of the townsfolk) it's extremely irreverent and doesn't actually contain much about the town itself. The Pacifist 21:25, 12 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Imagery / Photography

I think this article would benefit from better visuals.

I've donated a photo of the promenade/sea-front. I'm sure there are better photographers out there, perhaps they could contribute something to the Wikimedia Commons project ? --Darren Wyn Rees 19:25, 20 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] pronunciation

I take it the first pronunciation is supposed to be English, but it doesn't fit. Does it need to be fixed, or is it North Welsh? kwami (talk) 06:39, 23 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Map

Does anyone have a newer map? Dyfed dosen't exist anymore, Aber's in Ceredigion now. Pescar (talk) 20:52, 1 May 2008 (UTC)

Then what does the statement in the Dyfed article mean? Namely: "The Local Government (Wales) Act 1994 broke up Dyfed into three unitary authorities on April 1, 1996: Cardiganshire (which renamed itself Ceredigion as soon as it was able), Carmarthenshire and Pembrokeshire, but retained Dyfed as a preserved county for purposes such as Lieutenancy."
