Trade

Is Thurrock really an "important international trade centre"? I am not sure about this. —The preceding

It depends if the port at Tilbury is. MRSC 09:54, 22 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Merge with
Thurrock Development Corporation

Thurrock Development Corporation has no independent notability. JASpencer 09:09, 9 December 2006 (UTC)[reply

Living in Thurrock I believe the area is important for trade and development, mainly Lakeside, Blue Circle, and Tilbury, however, the article is a stub and I believe the paragraph could be easily incorporated into the Thurrock main entry Pchurch 10:07, 14 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I'd say don't merge it. We wouldn't merge London Docklands Development Corporation into Docklands. We just need to expand the article on TDC and talk about what they are doing. MRSC • Talk 20:30, 29 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Probably not appropriate to merge. The Thurrock article should be straight geography and history. The UDC is a relatively short-lived political entity with a hugely important but much more specific mandate and purpose. PhilAnderson 13:01, 5 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

  • Although this is a very old discussion, just to add a late comment - I'd consider that, given that UDCs have statutory powers, they have the appearance of a local authority (for certain functions). Given that we consider all local authorities to be inherently notable, I'd consider all UDCs to also be inherently notable. Oppose merge. DWaterson 21:01, 20 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Region

I assume that the change of region from East of England to London by User:80.195.49.130 last May was, er, inaccurate? Pterre (talk) 18:43, 22 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Merger of Woodside Primary School with Thurrock#Education

The AFD result for Woodside Primary School, Grays was merge with Thurrock#Education. User:Deor has redirected the Woodside page to Thurrock#Education which effectively deletes the Woodside page before the merge is completed. IMO, the redirect serves no useful purpose since there is so little information about Woodside on the Thurrock page. The notice fixed on the Woodside page by User:Black Kite said "If you find that such action has not been taken promptly, please consider assisting in the merger ..." There remains a great deal of material to be merged. I found it very difficult to locate this material using the revision history - perhaps there is an easy way to get to it, but I don't know what it is. I therefore propose to undo the redirect, but will wait a while to allow comments. Rjm at sleepers (talk) 07:35, 20 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Ignore the above - I now see how to do it. Rjm at sleepers (talk) 07:39, 20 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
