I think this is down to how English Heritage classify Luton vs Central Bedfordshire. Most of the buildings in the area are classified as CB except those in a small area centred on Luton. Looking at the visulisation on [1] doesn't appear to contradict our lists. -- KTC (talk) 12:53, 2 September 2013 (UTC)
Aberdeenshire listed buildingsHi Andrew, thank you for sorting out some of the category A building images I uploaded. I'm sorry to have given you extra work.... I don't really know much about how to work correctly with categories/commons - nor am I particularly great at taking photos - but hope I can learn by my mistakes! It looks as if I should create a category for any batches of images and then include the category 'batch' name under the 'commonscat' parameter of its listing? I have been trying to get a photo of this sun dial but it's now on land owned by developers and despite promises to the local community, it's still locked up tight. I did find a line drawing of it published in 1900 so that would at least be an image of some kind but does that count? Sorry about all the questions!

Wikidata weekly summary #74Here's your quick overview of what has been happening around Wikidata over the last week.
Wiki Loves Monuments -- EdinburghHi, I see you have contributed much to List of Category A listed buildings in Edinburgh. Having recently taken up the challenge of WLM I am adding photos to this page. I wanted to check if you had other photos in the pipeline or buildings you intended to photograph? I ask as I do not wish to create duplicates. Also, I have been taking a set of photos of the buildings - many aspects, etc. The above page only offers a thumbnail and link to a single image. I had a notion to add links to the Listed Buildings table to additional images. Eoinho (talk) 22:48, 8 September 2013 (UTC)
Given your interest in contributing to the main page scheduling discussions, I feel it is appropriate to inform you that you have supported a 2-point article for September 28th and now a 5-point article has been nominated for the same date at WP:TFAR.--TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 07:53, 9 September 2013 (UTC) This Month in GLAM: August 2013

Disambiguation link notification for September 9Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited 41st Division (United Kingdom), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Battle of Messines (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

The DYK project (nominate) 08:02, 7 September 2013 (UTC) Thanks for the DYK nomination. I'm glad you liked the article. Funny how some of them are picked up, and others are not, but I mustn't grumble :) -- Ferma (talk) 17:56, 13 September 2013 (UTC) The Signpost: 11 September 2013
