January 2014 edit

 Of course it is based on ONS data, it even says source:ONS below the table. Here is the link I used: http://www.nomisweb.co.uk/reports/lmp/la/1946157127/report.aspx?town=Leeds NOMIS, that webpage, is part of the ONS. There's a telephone number and email address on that webpage you can contact them for further information about who they are.

 The data I used is from the ONS, go on the website and scroll to the top, it says Office for National Statistics. Sure the web address is "nom is", but NOMIS is a service provided by the Office for National Statistics. The data is therefore independent and reliable.

 I am removing the data because it is from 2010, and I have replaced it with official government data from 2013. This is not an act of vandalism, this is updating wikipedia with the latest information. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.13.164.168 (talk) 21:17, 12 January 2014 (UTC)Reply

 Hi, I noticed you changed the employment statistics for the article Leeds. I updated the information to reflect the year 2012-2013 (previous data was from 2010), but you reverted it back to the 2010 data. The data I have used is from the Office for National Statistics through their publishing arm nomis and is therefore reliable. Please do not revert new data back to old data. Thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.13.164.168 (talk) 21:03, 12 January 2014 (UTC)Reply

October 2013 edit

  Hello, I'm Charlesdrakew. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Leeds, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so! If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you.

You recently edited the page for Leeds, so it'd be great if you could voice your opinion at Talk:Leeds#Merge_with_City_of_Leeds. Thanks. Leeds United FC fan (talk) 16:01, 3 November 2016 (UTC)Reply
