This article says ...closed on economic grounds. The Gresford article says ...closed due to "geological problems". Neither claim is provided with a reference. "Economic grounds" can be a variety of reasons, only one of which is "geological problems". These claims could benefit from clarification. Does anyone have any reliable sources? Feline Hymnic ( talk) 17:16, 2 May 2009 (UTC)
I just wondered whether the list should be put in its own article because of the length of the table? It makes the page unnecessarily long and difficult to navigate.
It's obviously very important, but it's already stated that there were more than 260 casualties, so this seems a little bit too much minutiae.
Any interested person could then use the link to see the page entitled: (for example) List of casualties of the 1934 Gresford Disaster.
Just a thought... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.170.214.23 ( talk) 11:39, 28 May 2009 (UTC)
Why was this moved without any discussion? It may be, technically, "better grammar", but it's a well-known enough event to merit full capitalisation in this case, surely? Svejk74 ( talk) 08:02, 29 September 2009 (UTC)

I was reading the article which interested me greatly, I note that the time recorded for the explosion is 2:08 am but the anonymous lyrics below for the poem state time as three in the morning. I just wondered which was the correct time; possibly who ever wrote the lyrics did not know the exact time and so rounded the figure up to 3.00 am —Preceding unsigned comment added by Chameleon6 ( talk • contribs) 11:39, November 20, 2009 (UTC)

Not worthy of comment in the main article, but perhaps of interesting to passing researchers, might be an auction by Messrs. Christie, Manson & Woods, on Tuesday 2nd October 1934, “of Works Of Art presented by the Exhibitors at The Antique Dealers’ Fair for the benefit of The Mansion House Fund, In aid of dependents of Miners who lost their lives in the Gresford Colliery disaster, which will be sold without reserve”.

Could there be a map? Perhaps the map in the article about the village of Gresford, but ideally one marking the colliery. And definitely with the inset showing where in Wales. (But I don’t know how to extract the map without all the village-level information.) JDAWiseman ( talk) 18:49, 17 October 2016 (UTC)

An editor has indicated that he needs about 8 citations adding to the main article. There are already 5 different incomplete citations of the official report satisfying 11 references. I would like to help Howcheng out by providing the required references and citations which mainly come from the official report, but am disinclined to further muddy the system. In accordance with WP:CITEVAR I would therefore like to seek consensus to change the established style since:
I'm happy to take on the work both to change over citation style and to satisfy Howcheng if we can agree this in a reasonable timeframe - could we say by 27 Sept? Martin of Sheffield ( talk) 21:51, 20 September 2018 (UTC)

link)The coordinates as previously give come down in a housing estate a little to the south of the industrial estate. "In the 1980s the site was redeveloped as an industrial estate." made me suspicious, and looking at the 1945 1" OS map a location slightly further North seems correct. I've updated the coordinates accordingly, can anyone confirm this work? Thanks, Martin of Sheffield ( talk) 13:51, 3 October 2018 (UTC)
Are the lyrics for the folk song "The Gresford Disaster" Roud Folk Song Index No:3089, covered by copyright, even though they were written "anonymously"? Or does that depend on when and by whom they were first published? Thanks. Martinevans123 ( talk) 10:31, 1 April 2021 (UTC)

I was reading the article which interested me greatly, I note that the time recorded for the explosion is 2:08 am but the anonymous lyrics below for the poem state time as three in the morning. I just wondered which was the correct time; possibly who ever wrote the lyrics did not know the exact time and so rounded the figure up to 3.00 am —Preceding unsigned comment added by Chameleon6 ( talk • contribs) 11:39, November 20, 2009 (UTC)

Not worthy of comment in the main article, but perhaps of interesting to passing researchers, might be an auction by Messrs. Christie, Manson & Woods, on Tuesday 2nd October 1934, “of Works Of Art presented by the Exhibitors at The Antique Dealers’ Fair for the benefit of The Mansion House Fund, In aid of dependents of Miners who lost their lives in the Gresford Colliery disaster, which will be sold without reserve”.

Could there be a map? Perhaps the map in the article about the village of Gresford, but ideally one marking the colliery. And definitely with the inset showing where in Wales. (But I don’t know how to extract the map without all the village-level information.) JDAWiseman ( talk) 18:49, 17 October 2016 (UTC)

An editor has indicated that he needs about 8 citations adding to the main article. There are already 5 different incomplete citations of the official report satisfying 11 references. I would like to help Howcheng out by providing the required references and citations which mainly come from the official report, but am disinclined to further muddy the system. In accordance with WP:CITEVAR I would therefore like to seek consensus to change the established style since:
I'm happy to take on the work both to change over citation style and to satisfy Howcheng if we can agree this in a reasonable timeframe - could we say by 27 Sept? Martin of Sheffield ( talk) 21:51, 20 September 2018 (UTC)

link)The coordinates as previously give come down in a housing estate a little to the south of the industrial estate. "In the 1980s the site was redeveloped as an industrial estate." made me suspicious, and looking at the 1945 1" OS map a location slightly further North seems correct. I've updated the coordinates accordingly, can anyone confirm this work? Thanks, Martin of Sheffield ( talk) 13:51, 3 October 2018 (UTC)
Are the lyrics for the folk song "The Gresford Disaster" Roud Folk Song Index No:3089, covered by copyright, even though they were written "anonymously"? Or does that depend on when and by whom they were first published? Thanks. Martinevans123 ( talk) 10:31, 1 April 2021 (UTC)
