Who cares that Pete Doherty or some other celebrity spent four nights in Pentonville? This kind of trivia shouldn't be at the head of an article on a serious subject.. when it is it just trivializes Wikipedia..

Quite
I totally agree, it's just not relevant

Fair use rationale for Image:HMPS logo.gif

edit
 

Image:HMPS logo.gif is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 06:32, 5 June 2007 (UTC)Reply

Wikiproject Prisons

edit

If anyone's interested, I've proposed a new wikiproject for the creation and improvement of articles regarding specific prisons, internment camps, and detention centers here. --Cdogsimmons (talk) 02:00, 23 June 2008 (UTC)Reply

1842?

edit

Why is the picture at the top from 1842? I'm not saying it should be moved, but surely a modern photo would be more appropriate?--Wodgester (talk) 17:56, 8 December 2017 (UTC)Reply

Round structures?

edit

In the 1844 isometric drawing ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Pentonvilleiso19.jpg ) there are three circular structures. What were they? --Guy Macon (talk) 18:34, 28 September 2019 (UTC)Reply

They're the exercise yards - there are five, including the two oval walking tracks too. Remember that this was built at the time of the 'separate system', so prisoners had to be spaced apart and exercise needed more space than a free association system would have needed. Also they're kept in smaller, isolated yards as any sort of riot would be easier to control with smaller, confined, groups. Andy Dingley (talk) 15:31, 19 February 2020 (UTC)Reply
