The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the move request was: Moved to 39–41 Lower Fort Street. As noted, there is no need to disambiguate at all here so taking the consensus at the end to do away with it. Note, that per MOS:ENFROM I am switching the dash from a - to a –, which wasn't discussed, but seems uncontroversial  — Amakuru (talk) 13:29, 20 March 2019 (UTC)Reply



39-41 Lower Fort Street, Millers Point39-41 Lower Fort Street, Dawes Point – The correct address is Dawes Point not Millers Point . It should be moved to reflect this and show Dawes Point . Page title currently identifies building as being in Millers Point, which is incorrect. User:Tootencarlmoon (talk) 12:05, 11 March 2019 (UTC)Reply

This property, 39-41 Lower Fort Street, is also listed on the Dawes Point Wikipedia page and to avoid the problem of including the words Millers Point in its address on the Dawes Point page, the link is made via a notation. At the top of the Dawes Point page the issue of the naming of Dawes Point was discussed as follows: "At times Dawes Point has been considered to be part of The Rocks, or known as West Rocks, part of Millers Point, or part of it known as Walsh Bay."

The government department that provides the information on state heritage listed properties, the Heritage Division has some out of date information and some errors about Millers Point and Dawes Point heritage properties, and these offices have not responded to some requests to update their information.

Some residents of Dawes Point consider themselves to be members of the Millers Point community. There is a similar issue with the naming of Millers Point, and briefly the name of the point itself was changed to Barangaroo Point, but following representations by residents, Millers Point was re-confirmed by the Geographical Names Board as a location in Barangaroo Reserve in the suburb of Barangaroo.
