Submitted draft for review today.

I've added missing pictures as requested in the last review. There are three plaques that I cannot obtain images for - All Hallows Spring Well and Blackburn Rovers plaques are on private land that I don't have access to; Daniel Burley Woolfall has been removed. For all three, I am unable to find public domain images that can be posted on Wikipedia, but I have linked to external sites that host the images as allowed by the Wikipedia policy for information that cannot be added due to copyright (Wikipedia:External links).

I have added more sources, but unsure what more I can add. The introduction text includes several sources describing the background of the plaque scheme, and the plaque subjects link to Wikipedia pages or external sources where available. Scooby359 (talk) 22:09, 12 April 2024 (UTC)Reply

Missing Plaques edit

Note that several plaques are missing:

Blackburn Girls School (building was demolished)
River Blakewater
Blackburn Railway Station (two plaques - missing after refurb)
Lyceum Theatre (building was demolished)
Daniel Burley Woolfall
Revidge Tank (building was demolished)

Currently have no information about the Blackburn Girls School plaque, so needs further investigation before adding to the page.

Have emailed Blackburn Museum and Art Gallery on 13th April 2024 to ask if they are in possession of any of the removed plaques. If so, the page can be updated with the location and missing pictures. Scooby359 (talk) 23:31, 12 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
