• Birkdale (disambiguation) → Birkdale
• Birkdale → Birkdale, Merseyside

– No clear primary topic, the Merseyside one has 267 views and its ward has 17 but the Queensland one has 337, the North Yorkshire one has 48, the ship has 3 and Birkdale Village has 103[[1]]. Crouch, Swale (talk) 19:16, 11 October 2024 (UTC) — Relisting. Bobby Cohn (talk) 19:47, 18 October 2024 (UTC)

• Support per nomination. There are nine entries listed upon the Birkdale (disambiguation) page, with no indication that the renown of the area in Merseyside overwhelms the combined notability of the remaining eight entries. —Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 20:05, 11 October 2024 (UTC)
• Support per nom.--Ortizesp (talk) 12:53, 14 October 2024 (UTC)
• Support Birkdale, Southport. No primary topic. But it's been an area of Southport since 1912, so shouldn't be directly under the county. -- Necrothesp (talk) 14:45, 17 October 2024 (UTC)

Would not oppose Birkdale → Birkdale, Southport, since that may well be the more precise form, although under Category:Towns and villages in the Metropolitan Borough of Sefton entries using a comma are styled "Xxxxxxx, Merseyside". At least eight entries that are styled "Xxxxxxx, Southport" under other categories — Birkdale High School, Southport; Christ the King Catholic High School, Southport; Hesketh Park, Southport; Lifeboat Memorial, Southport; Lord Street, Southport; Monumental Obelisk, Southport; Stanley High School, Southport and Victoria Park, Southport — are in the form of extended articles, but none of those refers to a city, town, village or neighborhood. —Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 22:59, 17 October 2024 (UTC)

• Relister's comment: strong consensus for a move here, just relisting to allow time for discussion on the late alternative suggestion. Thanks, Bobby Cohn (talk) 19:47, 18 October 2024 (UTC)
