Civil parish or Denominational Church?

edit

This article needs to make up its mind; it's either about a civil parish or it's about a particular piece of bricks and mortar currently controlled by a particular denomination. If the former, then it needs to contain information about the civil parish, barony and county. The name should also reflect that purpose e.g. "St. X (civil parish)" or "Civil parish of St. X". On the other hand, if the article's purpose is closer to the latter, then why does it have a category of civil parish? If the article deals exclusively with the bricks and mortar aspect, then it's other legal function is no more than a co-incidence. Laurel Lodged (talk) 20:43, 16 August 2010 (UTC)Reply

This discussion has been here for almost a month with no input from the main editor. There is a discussion on the WikiIreland talk page where that editor has made contributions. These have been found to be generally lacking in merit. Another editor has given notice that he intends to take action on the inappropriate categirisation. This is to give notice that I intend to remove the civil parishe category in 2 days time. Laurel Lodged (talk) 18:15, 13 October 2010 (UTC)Reply

wrong address

edit

There is a street named "Andrew St." nearby, but the correct address of the church is Suffolk Street. This information can be found on the official website. So the address should not only be changed within the text but also in the name of the article - or what do you think? --YvonneM (talk) 22:43, 3 June 2011 (UTC)Reply

All the old references to the church referred to Andrew Street. The architectural references, for example [1] refer to Andrew Street. The original entrance to the church was in Andrew St., see [2] The church has been around for a long time, the tourist office people are only blow-ins (maybe they should check their history).

I'd agree with this. And even if it wasn't true, common usage would dictate the current name. Laurel Lodged (talk) 09:23, 4 June 2011 (UTC)Reply
