[[Droitwich_Spa_Lido]] has article issues. Brief rewrite with new headings needed.

If the parent article seems long, it's not unreasonable to split off the swimming pool section as a new article. Note that the guidance of [[WP:CFORK]] applies.

|title=General improvements to other pages (2009)}}
1. [[Lidos]]
:. Check  against www.lidos.org.uk

:. <s>Refine [[:Category:Lidos]]</s>

:. Add better in-line sources
:. <s>Gravitate [[Lido di Venezia]] away from [[Lido]] as a shortcut using [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3AWhatLinksHere&target=Lido&namespace= search] with the aim of moving it over to the more commonly used sense</s>
:. <s>Collate [[User:Lidos/Sources|source list]] for reuse</s>

2. [[Swimming pool|Swimming pool]] - edit very US-centric page and add citations. Perhaps add something to [[Talk:Swimming pool]] first.
:Note [[Talk:Swimming pool#lido]]

{{hidden begin|toggle=left|bodystyle=background:lightgreen
|title=Backlog}}
<!-- Move to In-tray when prioritized -->

Article format, etc.

* Add Category "Buildings and structures in nameofcounty" grab from [[:Category:Buildings and structures in England by county]]. Note some counties have category "Sports venues in nameofcounty" instead. Have made a start on this.

<!-- ''Note, adding/changing categories is made semi-automatic with [[wp:HOTCAT|HotCat]]. Entering the start of a category name in the entry bar highlights nearest matches. The entry bar only appears when you click the '+' on the webpage to add another category. -->

* Add (WPnameofcounty|class=stub|importance=low) to Talk page of newly created articles, to maximise editorial comments and improvements. Again have made a start with this.

* [[List of Olympic-size swimming pools in the United Kingdom|Olympic size pools in the UK]] - add 50m outdoor pools
<!-- Q. Is there a WSIWYG editor for WP tables?
A. I think I've tried WSIWYG table editing in the past but you end up with messy code that will probably just annoy other editors. See [[WP:TABLE]] for some links to help. WikEd has a button for creating the basics of a table, you should be able to enable WikEd as an option in your preferences. Most of the time if you are tempted to add a table, think about a list instead due to the ease of maintenance. -->

* Add inline coordinates for smaller lidos in villages, see  [[User talk:Lidos#Coordinates for lidos]]

* Incorporate items from [http://homepage.ntlworld.com/oliver.merrington/lidos/lidosfaq.htm Lidos FAQ]
