[edit] Name

The derivation of the name given here is almost certainly wrong. The minster goes back to the seventh century, long before Leofric. Peterkingiron 17:58, 1 March 2007 (UTC)

On the subject of the name, the sentence about the lion is extremely vague and ambiguous. Is anybody able to expand upon this? SRBAndrews 23rd March '07

I have removed the aforementioned sentence about the lion as it didn't make sense and did not cite a source that I could use to clarify it. I have also corrected the IPA pronunciation from ˈlɛmstə to ˈlɛmstə:. SRBAndrews 2nd April '07

[edit] Crime and prevention

Several people seem to be conflicting over this and an editing war seems to have broken out. There are several unsupported statements in this area - could do with some improvement if possible —Preceding unsigned comment added by 62.136.162.13 (talk) 19:38, 13 November 2007 (UTC)

I am baffled at the relevance to anyone of the 'crime and prevention' information noted on the main page. Please respond if you can explain why it is so important that it should be on here? o.O
