I guess that editting this site is very much like editting Wikipedia then, right? Great idea btw - I was thinking about creating something like this myself. Just out of interest, can we use Wikipedia material to add to this site? --Dangher 11:43, 8 June 2006 (BST)
Thanks for the positive comments. I think its ok to use Wikipedia as a source of information for articles, which I've been doing, but its probably best to avoid cutting and pasting chunks of text so we can keep the content on here fairly original. --Robster 14:54, 14 June 2006 (BST)
Should probably state the Wikipedia was the source as well? I don't kow enough about copyright and what-hav-ya. --Rhys 11:58, 12 October 2006 (BST)
Welsh language
In the General info bit on the home page, I'd like to see the first sentence start of with "Cardiff (Caerdydd in Welsh) is a fast growing..." kind of similar to the 'Cardiff' page on Wikipedia, with a link from the word Welsh to either here* or a new page/article about the Welsh langugae in Cardiff (basically copying from Wikipedia). I set up a new category for 'Welsh Language' which I appplied to 4 pages, but I've done something to it so it now appears as an edit box every time rather than an alpha list of all categorised pages. What a balls up.--Rhys 115:37, 19 October 2006 (BST)

Wikipedia
How about getting a link here on the 'Cardiff' page on Wikipedia? I've registered on Wikipedia in the past but don't find it as easy as this one to amend. posted by Rhys
I tried posting a link on there before, but the regular contributors to the page decided to remove it as the link was more beneficial to this site than useful to people reading Wikipedia, apparently --Robster 15:48, 19 October 2006 (BST)
Shame they thought that, I found a lot of good links from the 'Toronto' page of Wikipedia before visiting. --Rhys 12:14, 11 January 2007 (GMT)
