[IMC-UK-Features] harmondsworth4 feature

[ionnek]

Hi beetle,

sorry, my fault. Misunderstood. Too many mails in too short time.
Ok, startpage special. I don't see why not - it won't hurt but i'm not sure it's
needed.

I had to look up startpage special, confused it with the ticker/old breaking
news.

Please pp correct me if i'm wrong.
Afaik, all a startpage special does is to make sure that the feature classified
as startpage special remains on top of the startpage features column. Useful
when there is a big mobilisation coming up, and info needs to stay on top of
the middle column for weeks. Or during a protest, when basic information stays
on top for days, while features are added every day. We don't have many
features these days, so the danger that it disappears somewhere deep down on
the site isn't that big.
But, as I said - i don't mind either way. And thanks for doing this
startpage/migration feature.

best
ionnek
