Greaves Hall Hospital → Greaves Hall — Focus of the article is (quite rightly) on the Greaves Hall mansion, not the hospital which occupied it for less than half of the building's history. Small-town hero (talk) 19:22, 5 November 2009 (UTC)Reply

Since polling is not a substitute for discussion, please explain your reasons, taking into account Wikipedia's naming conventions.

Strongly Support as people will be looking for a full article about Greaves Hall, when they type in 'Greaves Hall' on to Wikipedia they get this section on the Banks, Lancashire article, which only gives the reader a small amount of infomation on Greaves Hall. Also Small-town hero is right that the hospital only occupied the building for a small amount of time, there was also the school and not forgeting the family who lived there and built it. In conclusion I belive the article should just be called 'Greaves Hall'. However what should the Greaves Hall section be called on the Banks, Lancashire article? It can not be called 'Greaves Hall Hospital'.93gregsonl2 (talk) 21:19, 7 November 2009 (UTC)Reply

Lets just create the page "Greaves Hall" and move the whole article over there! it would be much easier! also the "Greaves Hall Hospital" can just be a redirect page to the Main "Greaves Hall" page. I think that would be for the best!Bankhallbretherton (talk) 22:09, 8 November 2009 (UTC)Reply

No, no, no, no, no! Cut and paste moves are not good. If everyone is happy for the move to go ahead, let's leave it for an admin to do properly. Small-town hero (talk) 22:55, 8 November 2009 (UTC)Reply

well i dont know why not? it gets the job done much quicker than waiting forever! LOL but whatever you think is best...Bankhallbretherton (talk) 01:28, 9 November 2009 (UTC)Reply

When you do a move like that it seperates the article from the revision history. You should always use the "move" tab at the top of your screen to move a page, and if that's not possible request a move at WP:RM. Small-town hero (talk) 17:05, 9 November 2009 (UTC)Reply

Ah ok i didnt know! thanks for that! Bankhallbretherton (talk) 17:15, 9 November 2009 (UTC)Reply

The building has not tecnically been removed from site as all the demolition material still remains, but is leveled out awaiting re development. Bankhallbretherton (talk) 01:31, 9 November 2009 (UTC)Reply
