The few books about the Dark Peak are pamphlets dealing with aircraft crashes, walks, and mountain biking routes. I cannot even find one about ghost stories or murder stories. The books about the Peak District in general are mostly about the White Peak. After all, the White Peak has more to write about: the geology is more interesting, and the human presence and activity was and is much greater and more diverse. This imbalance is reflected in the respective Wikipedia entries, though the one on the White Peak does not mention its importance as a mining area. So I am trying to correct the bias a bit, as I prefer the grandeur of the Dark. --Martin Wyatt (talk) 19:47, 14 February 2021 (UTC)

Possible ideas

Martin, I've been following your progress on this page, and love it all. The article might benefit from more images, if they can be had, and especially one near the top of the article. This is the visual age--people enjoy photos and even expect them. I think this is "article of the week" fodder. Nice job!Pat Palmer (talk) 16:41, 24 March 2021 (UTC)
