Great Twelve City Livery Companies

Repeat of a section in Livery Company bärliner^Talk 20:37, 10 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect. I created this almost a year ago and no doubt I had a reason at the time. While the article isn't essential, it might be better to redirect to Livery company than to delete. Xn4 20:46, 10 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Keep or merge and redirect. My first thought on reading the title was that it related to some non-notable business. In fact, these are guilds, medieval in origin, in the City of London. This seems notable enough to keep somehow, and much of the information is already present in livery company, though these twelve seem singled out for a particular honour and are the first in rank. On the other hand, the title here is unwieldy. The information should be preserved in one form or another. - Smerdis of Tlön 21:03, 10 July 2007 (UTC) (Master 1990-1997 of the Worshipful Company of Rogues and Blackguards)[reply]
I know a little about these as my wife lived in one of the Guild Houses as a child. I see no reason to keep this article as all, or at least most, of the information is already in livery company. Complete the merge and redirect to livery company. --Bduke 00:12, 11 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Merge and redirect. I think one of my reasons for creating this article was that I wanted to include the twelve external links to the official web sites of the twelve companies. None of those links are at Livery company, but they could reasonably be merged there. Xn4 13:04, 11 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Merge and redirect as per Xn4 ...Proposal seems appropriate. Individual company links may also be included in their connected entries. Thanks. J. T. Lance 21:34, 11 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
