Merge

[edit]
The following discussion is closed and will soon be archived: outcome was: merged/redirected

I propose to merge the limited content here to Enniscrone and to redirect this title there. Reason being that, effectively, the ENTIRETY of the town of Enniscrone lies in the townland of Carrowhubbock South. Enniscrone's main street, church, cliff baths, seaweed baths, pier and all points in between all lie in this townland. The two subjects are effectively coterminous. Where that is the case elsewhere (where a town sits largely within a townland), we do not have (and do not need) each covered in their own article. We don't need two articles here either. The only reason we do is that someone seems to have decided to create their own little SOAPBOX article 14 years ago. And (despite an AfD discussion) we didn't seem to recognise that we already had a title which could cover the content and subject under discussion. Every WP:MERGEREASON applies here. As does WP:GEOLAND. (Where there are two names for the same plot of land, we do not create or need separate articles covering each.) All content in this article could readily be covered in the article on the town. Or vice versa. The notability of each subject is also inexplicably linked. Even the sources here overlay the two subjects. We should do the same. Guliolopez (talk) 22:23, 17 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

 Resolved. Thanks Djm-leighpark and Declangi. It's been a week or so, and there haven't been any other thoughts of issues raised, so I've gone ahead with the merge. And redirect. And a bit of a post-merge tidy. Closing thread. Cheers. Guliolopez (talk) 11:48, 24 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
