Hawkesyard
After Gregory Kohs kindly proxied for a banned user by adding the article on Osmund Lewry
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Osmund_Lewry, I did a little research on the unlinked place called 'Hawkesyard Priory' where Lewry taught in the 1960's and it turns out there is no article on Hawkesyard. There are plenty of articles where it could be linked from
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=...fulltext=Search and it is a beautiful place
http://www.nbsanity.me.uk/images/Calendar%...es/Image10.html http://fiveprime.org/hivemind/Tags/hawkesyardbut there is nothing about the priory itself. Even the article on the village (Armitage, Rugeley County Staffordshire) where it is located does not mention it.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ArmitageThere is an article about Armitage Park where it is located
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Armitage_Park, but this does not mention its correct name: 'Hawkesyard Priory'
http://two.archiseek.com/archives/1855. Nor is there an article about the building that formerly occupied the grounds, Hawkesyard Hall. There is no article about the architect, Edward Goldie, who was the son of George Goldie, although there is an article about his father
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_Goldie_(architect) .
This problem is not isolated. The Wikipedia article on monastic houses in Staffordshire
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_monas...n_Staffordshire shows how many redlinks there are. People who say that Wikipedia is in its 'saturation phase' are only correct relative to the universe of possible articles about Britney Spears. Relative to the universe of old priories, medieval philosophers, English villages, and so on, Wikipedia is mostly empty.
[edit] There is an excellent list here
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:JohnArma...ork_in_progressby John Armagh, who deserves a medal of some sort.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:JohnArmagh Interesting that, unless he has hidden them, Armagh has no barnstar of any sort on his page.
