Talk:Green Cape Lighthouse

Two articles?

Given there are two lighthouses and two infoboxes, should we have two articles (obviously cross-linked)? It seems a bit messy to have them in a single article, particularly as the most dominant element in the photo of the modern lighthouse is the historic lighthouse.

@Kerry Raymond: I believe it is customary not to create a separate article for a new light at the same location, especially not when the light name is the same and all the data we have for the new light is light details. If you want to discuss this practice, I believe the project is the place to start. --Muhandes (talk) 07:35, 10 October 2019 (UTC)

It is standard to include the reasons for heritage listing, so let's restore that and move on. Kerry (talk) 08:50, 10 October 2019 (UTC)

Happy to leave it as one then; I'll re-instate the standard heritage criteria. Kerry (talk) 09:09, 10 October 2019 (UTC)

@Kerry Raymond: It's one thing to add a section with heritage criteria and I'm all for that, see for example how it was done in Point Stephens Light. It's another thing to copy-pasta the entire entry. Add to that the fact that the text is mostly a template, copied from one listing to another, and I fail to see how this is encyclopedic. However, I am not going to argue, let the copy-pasters have their fun and I will move elsewhere. --Muhandes (talk) 13:32, 10 October 2019 (UTC)

I have embedded the two infoboxes. Hope that looks okay! — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 15:30, 18 October 2021 (UTC)
