Unencyclopaedic Language

[edit]

Quite a lot of this article reads as though it has been copied directly from elsewhere - presumably the sources referenced, and it sounds like a travel guide in places.

Phrases such as "There is a pleasant walk from the Boat Inn" and "a fine upstanding Anglo Saxon tower" are not all encyclopaedic and my guess is that they are copied word for word from the source material. 2.29.83.39 (talk) 01:02, 11 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

This kind of language may contravene Wikipedia's style guide, but I take issue with the notion that it's "unencyclopedic". Most encyclopedias are full of words like "pleasant" and "fine". It's only Wikipedia that's allergic to any kind of value judgement. Zacwill (talk) 03:30, 12 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
