Points

edit

The addition of brackets around Hull is creating confusion with Princes Road, Liverpool. The better title would be PA, Hull and the latter should be PR, Liverpool.

NB Victorian is a recognised architectural term, so should be left.

Notability

edit

Someone tagged this with a drive-by notability tag, which I removed. In my opinion, existing articles about streets of this size are OK. This is a matter of opinion I guess.

On the other hand, Hull has about 250,000 people (city limits) so per WP:STREET it should have about five street articles. Princes Avenue is not one of the five most notable Hull streets, I would say. Nor is there any special quality that would make it especially notable. Nor is anything likely to turn up.

I would say, there is no point in having a notability tag uglying up the the article forever, as some new cause of notability is unlikely to be found. It is what it is: a street in Hull. Either delete it or remove the tag. Herostratus (talk) 16:32, 3 April 2011 (UTC)Reply

Hundyke, cemeteries

edit

Need a source for "Hundyke"

The info about cholera epidemics and the cemetery probably ( see [1] should be in a separate article about Hull cemeteries, not as an aside here - a web search shows that such a topic would be notable for a variety of reasons - so I have left a red link. (There is a listing in Pevsner, notable monuments, general near contemporary and historical coverage, as details company history all covered in reliable sources.) http://www.british-history.ac.uk/report.aspx?compid=66784&strquery=cemeteries#s11 gives a starting point with basic dates.

Name the avenues in the lead?

edit

The lead mentions four avenues off Princes Avenue, but doesn’t name them. It would be useful to have them named at the start - or a section/ table listing all the avenues and the dukeries. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.129.182.92 (talk) 14:57, 15 May 2022 (UTC)Reply
