What sort of "parish"?
[edit]@Tom1955:
The article begins
- Lasswade is a village and parish in Midlothian, Scotland, on the River North Esk,
I thought I understood that. But the further I read in the article, the more uncertain I was. See, I'm American, and over here "parish" almost always means a type of ecclesiastical administrative unit, a subunit of a diocese. The state of Louisiana calls its first-level subunits parishes, but all the other states have counties (except Alaska, which has boroughs).
The article offers no explicit indication that Lasswade is not an ecclesiastical parish. So I'm going to change the first use of the word to "civil parish". That way, both the word "civil" and the link will serve to distinguish this parish from ecclesiastical parishes.
I see that you have worked on other pages for places in the UK. Perhaps you and other interested editors can check such pages for this assumption of what the reader knows, and similarly change parish
to [[civil parish]]
at its first use. In fact, this might well be an appropriate task for WP:UK geography and WP: Ireland. --Thnidu (talk) 03:00, 16 December 2017 (UTC)
After reading this discussion I noticed that the first mention of "parish" in this article was not "civil parish." Looking through the history of the article I could not find the time or justification for the reversion, so I added "civil" and the link back in as I think this point is well taken. If there was a reason for the reversion please let me know. Thank you. Worriedwallace (talk) 16:40, 6 November 2018 (UTC)
