**Completed Look ups **
« on: Wednesday 25 May 05 20:45 UTC (UK) »
I am going to spring clean the "Look ups" board by moving all completed posts to a new boards called.....well you guessed it "Lancashire Completed Look ups"  Grin

It would help great deal, it when your request has been completed that you end the post with "Look up Completed" then I know that I am safe to move to its new home.

Thanks Sarah Smiley

Sarah, How do you define completed look ups?, as i'm sure you know one progressive step leads to a wide stride, invariably a completion leads on further to another mystery
I assume that an enquiry for a specific time, name, location, once answered in the affirmitive, is then complete, and move on to the next branch, twig or leaf. Bodger

Hi Bodger,

Yes, it does all depend on the question asked in the first place. I  see a lot of posts where someone has a reply and then uses this information to make another post to ask another question. Do we leave two posts... ? ...this then leads to duplications...

I am not always sure what to do but try to keep the posts in order best I can. If a post is ongoing then I am quite happy to leave it.

As always - Any post can be moved to anyboard by any Moderator with no trouble. This includes completed posts.
