[edit] A note on British English

British English should be used for articles on Britain related topics. Likewise, American English should be used on articles pertaining to American topics. For a clearer example, please visit this sub-section on the differences between their usage. I have made the necessary changes. Please feel free to comment on this. --Siva1979^{Talk to me} 18:13, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

Is that it? perhaps the information is more important than the syntax ? Isn't it about encouraging free flow of information and access to all, rather than creating elitism and linguistic snobbery? User 08:05, 9 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] A request for any additional information

I have been trying to develop the entry for Buxton FC if anyone has any suggestions or information please can they get in touch with me through this page. Thanks. Ladybucks 15:44, 10 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Height of Ground

"Situated over 1000 feet above sea level, the Silverlands is the highest ground within the Pyramid of football and substantially higher than the highest Football League ground which is The Hawthorns built in 1900, standing at 551 feet above sea level. Next comes Vale Park (525 feet) and Boundary Park (509 feet)."

Sorry - this is untrue I'm afraid. There are two higher grounds then the ones listed - #2. Is Tow Law Town F.C. which according to The Ordinance Survey is a whopping 300 metres above sea level or 984 in old money, and #3 is A.F.C. Emley whose ground is located between 180 and 190 meters (185m = 606ft) on my map. --Gavinio 12:19, 23 April 2007 (UTC)

Sorry Gavinio, but it did say it was refering to league grounds, thanks for the info and the link though. Have altered the cricket ref on your page..... we were formed as an offshoot but The Silverlands has never hosted cricket  !! :)

That's cool - thought you still ground shared with them. I just thought if you're talking about NL football the references should be absolute - anyway, it inspired me to make the page listing the highest grounds! --Gavinio 11:37, 26 April 2007 (UTC)
