Cavendish College → Cavendish College London – Make way for disambiguation, allow for separate treatment of the historic Cavendish College, in Cambridge, created by Joseph Lloyd Brereton (and described in his Wikipedia article). As a (former) college, the Brereton/Cambridge one as a topic is clearly Wikipedia-notable. The current wikipedia "Cavendish College" article's subject is formally named "Cavendish College London" and appears to have no association with Brereton's college. Brereton's one may or may not be properly classified in Category: Former colleges of the University of Cambridge. Of course there should be suitable "for" linking at top of each article or other treatment to avoid name confusion, but Cavendish College as a name seems best to apply to the historic college of exactly that name, or to be a disambiguation page. do ncr am 22:57, 7 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

P.S. Actually i didn't quite notice, but Cavendish College London also closed (in 2011) per this article, so both are former colleges, and that tips a bit further to making "Cavendish College" be a disambiguation page. --do ncr am 03:17, 8 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Support, per nom. In ictu oculi (talk) 02:28, 8 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Suggest Cavendish College, London as per Merton College, London and The College of Haringey, Enfield and North East London. CCL is not used on their website. gregkaye ✍♪ 05:54, 8 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I think it is CCL not CC. The closing letter uses "Cavendish College", but I think that is using it familiarly, while:

The http://www.cavendish.ac.uk/ main page transfers one to http://www.theeducators.com/cavendish/ which uses "Cavendish College London alumni"
The 2011 coverage of partnership with CUZ uses "Cavendish College London"
The CUZ mainpage at http://www.cavendishza.org/, then click on "About us" brings one to mention of "Cavendish London" informally.

I don't want to coin a new name by introducing a comma. It seems actually to have been "CCL" with no comma, also known sometimes informally as Cavendish College. And actually it kinda appears to me that Merton College, London is misnamed as an article. It should be at Merton College (London) if its formal name was "Merton College", IMHO. And the Merton College, Oxford one should be at Merton College (Oxford), i think. However here we don't need any parenthetical disambiguation, as the real name of the place seems to have been "Cavendish College London". --do ncr am 09:06, 8 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
