The changes of splitting opening into lead and context have solved the navigation prob. Current structure better than what is suggest above.

Maintenance Tags

I think they are redundant. The text is well written and flows and certainly is not to long if you are looking for the information. The references did rely to heavily on one source- but one has to be carefully in deciding about references. The fact that an item exists- can be taken from a shaky reference, to support a a POV then the reference needs to be rock solid. All that could have been pointed out here- this is an active article and changes are easily made with a little cooperation. I will leave this a few days- then zap the redundant tag. -- Clem Rutter (talk) 19:53, 8 December 2015 (UTC)

I do not think shortening the article would really be an improvement so the length tag is not needed.--Johnsoniensis (talk) 11:32, 9 January 2016 (UTC)

POV

I'm aware that the potential demolition/redevelopment is controversial locally but I think some sections of this article cross the line from information to conjecture/opinion eg "sink estates", "The estate has been a proven success" . Crookesmoor (talk) 08:31, 24 September 2018 (UTC)

Good to look at this again two years on. There are certainly opinions expressed here that do need to be supported by a reference.--ClemRutter (talk) 09:27, 24 September 2018 (UTC)
