London pre-1964 and sporting events

[edit]

Should sporting events which took place in areas not part of the London County Council area, but which came into London with the creation of the Greater London Council be in this category. For instance the 1963 Wimbledon Championships, which is currently in Category:1963 in London and I was planning to move, technically took place in Surrey as Wimbledon was in Surrey until the GLC was created. This would have an impact on a number of events including the 1963 FA Cup Final as for instance Wembley was in the old county of Middlesex rather than London. However many people and sources do speak about these events as taking place in London, and a lot are already in London categories. Dunarc (talk) 21:56, 26 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
