Assessment Report

  1. The article needs to be expanded.
  2. It should make use of sections.
  3. References and Citations are crucial for wikipedia, and so these must be added as the article is expanded. Make sure that as many as possible are "in-line" citations.(See WP:References, WP:V, and WP:CITE for guidance.)

If someone knows more about this electricity pylon, please add these informations to the article. This pylon may be the only electricity pylon standing over a shipable waterway!

  • Scarcely "shipable" - "narrow" means it is limited to narrow boats, ie 7 ft (2.13 metres) beam. The external link I have added tells a bit more. -- RHaworth 07:41, 2005 Jun 12 (UTC)

"This may be the only electricity pylon in the world, under which you can pass by a boat.". This is a "may", and it's still an encylopedia article on an electricity pylon. Secretlondon 17:45, 14 Jun 2005 (UTC)

It is not the only electricity pylon which straddles a canal, anyway - there's one on the Wey and Arun Canal. Look at this map on their site ("Unique to the W & A (?) a pylon straddles the canal") and this picture. Sorry.

[edit] Photo added

I've just added a photo of the pylon. I confess to having no interest on the details about it but I was looking at Stalybridge (where I live) and saw a link to your pages which sparked me to remember that I had taken a photo of it when I had a new camera and was looking for anything and everything to picture.

[edit] Merge

I think this article should be merged with Huddersfield Narrow Canal.Geni 02:37, 9 December 2005 (UTC)
