Some tweaking required - eg Ben Cooper, Quintin Hogg, possibly John Lewis, and a few others. Jackiespeel ( talk) 17:45, 18 November 2009 (UTC)
Some go to the wrong persons or disambiguation pages - in addition to the above Robert Lyon, William Phillips, James Beal, and John Hutton. Some of the disambiguation pages do not obviously relate to members of the LCC. 14:40, 20 November 2009 (UTC)
Some of us prefer writing the articles and being 'tweaker-spotters' to 'persuading the links to work' (g).
Will start the ball rolling on a few. 16:31, 20 November 2009 (UTC)
'Some' might be notable enough - or 'an alphabetical list of LCC members with one sentence descriptives and dates' might be more appropriate. 21:56, 20 November 2009 (UTC)
There are some descriptive inconsistencies in this page that need to be eliminated. All the Progressive members were styled as Progressives, regardless of whether they were Liberal or Labour party members. Either this page should indicate if they were Liberal or Labour, or it should not distinguish at all. Example: the Labour politician, Harry Gosling is described as 'Labour Progressive' while the Liberal politician John Benn is described as 'Progressive'. The same consistency should apply to the party colours. Graemp ( talk) 07:07, 30 November 2009 (UTC)
The descriptions of the party labels published at the time show different labels for the same candidate, as was often the case for UK elections, which may explain some confusion. What was not confusing was which party whip an individual subsequently took. There was no Labour Progressive whip but there was a Labour whip and a Progressive whip. Gosling and Crooks were elected as Progressives and took the Progressive whip. The link to "Politics and the People of London 1889-1965" at the bottom will tell you all you need to know.

These lists contain some biographical details of members which, whilst interesting, create a cluttered appearance when placed in a table. There is no need to have any biographical details for any member who had their own page with this information. In cases where a member does not have a page, this biographical information should be very brief. Example of the member who died in battle with a sentence explaining what happened is just too long.

I agree that footnotes would be better. Graemp ( talk) 07:50, 2 December 2009 (UTC)
I have just made some changes; linking some and de-linking others. I have taken as my guide, a degree of notability conferred by an entry in who's who online, which i think is a good guide. If anyone wants to re-link any I have de-linked, then I don't have a problem with that. Graemp ( talk) 11:23, 14 January 2017 (UTC)
I have changed his party label from Moderate to Progressive as this seemed to me to be an error. He was a Liberal parliamentary candidate in 1900 and 1910 and a Progressive LCC candidate in 1910. He also chaired LCC committees 1903-07 which suggests he was a Progressive. Graemp ( talk) 11:23, 14 January 2017 (UTC)
