Talk:St. Stanislaus Bishop & Martyr's Parish (Chelsea, Massachusetts)

Requested move

• A move was requested on 31 January to St. Stanislaus Church (Chelsea, Massachusetts)

The following discussion is an archived discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the move request was: Moved to St. Stanislaus Bishop & Martyr's Parish (Chelsea, Massachusetts). This was moved by one of the participants while the discussion was open, which is not ideal, but it appears to be the most reasonable title on the evidence presented. It's true that the article content is too short to tell whether it's primarily about the church or the parish, but this parish is included in Category:Polish-American Roman Catholic parishes in New England. I see 'parish' in the names of nearly all of these articles. Perhaps a more centralized discussion could be held if Orlady finds the church/parish issue to be wrongly decided. There did not seem to be enough evidence in the move proposal to tell whether 'Bishop & Martyr's' needs to be included in the title, but perhaps a redirect could be created called St. Stanislaus' Parish (Chelsea, Massachusetts). Per Stanislaus of Szczepanów there is more than one Saint Stanislaus, and the full names of churches often identify which one they are in honor of.

St. Stanislaus Bishop & Martyr's Parish, Chelsea → St. Stanislaus Church (Chelsea, Massachusetts) — To resolve three issues with current name: (1) Article seems to be about the church, not the parish. (2) All of the sources I can see call it "St. Stanislaus", not "St. Stanislaus Bishop & Martyr's". (3) The location is needed for disambiguation of "St. Stanislaus Church". It needs to specify which "Chelsea" is referred to (I would have guessed London) and should be in parentheses consistent with Wikipedia practice for U.S. city&state disambiguations. (Posting as requested move due to the complexity of the proposal.) --Orlady (talk) 15:17, 31 January 2011 (UTC)

Wrong. The article is about the parish. --WlaKom (talk) 18:42, 31 January 2011 (UTC)

It sure looks to me like it's an article about a church. However, I see that you apparently agreed on the third of the three issues that I identified above, because you just renamed the article to take care that item. --Orlady (talk) 19:47, 31 January 2011 (UTC)
