Talk:Woodside, Berkshire (hamlet)

Requested move 15 November 2022

The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

The result of the move request was: moved to Woodside, Berkshire (hamlet). There's a definite consensus to move away from the original title of Woodside, Berkshire; however, determining consensus for Woodside, Bracknell Forest vs. Woodside, Berkshire (hamlet) was more challenging, as many participants offered equal support to both options under a shared rationale. Ultimately, I found the consensus to be slightly stronger for Woodside, Berkshire (hamlet), as it was noted in the discussion that the hamlet lies within multiple districts.

Woodside, Berkshire → Woodside, Bracknell Forest – Woodside, Old Windsor is also in Berkshire and the Old Windaor one has more views (873) than the hamlet (22)[[1]]. The article however states Woodside is also in Sunninghill and Ascot parish in Windsor and Maidenhead district. This may be because the area around Woodside may sometimes be called "Woodside" thus the Bracknell Forest may not be appropriate though at Talk:Roborough, South Hams#Requested move 9 October 2018 it was. Woodside (near Cranbourne) may be another option like Burton (near Neston).

• Oppose and move Woodside, Old Windsor somewhere else. It's a long-standing tradition that only populated places get disambugated using comma-convention, and all other topics should get a different form. Or leave well alone, I don't see evidence that anyone is confused by the current setup. No such user (talk) 09:49, 16 November 2022 (UTC)
  • It's a long-standing tradition that only populated places get disambugated using comma-convention, and all other topics should get a different form. Only for places in North America. For Commonwealth countries (other than Canada), the norm is to use comma disambiguation for buildings as well. For places elsewhere it's a right old mixture. -- Necrothesp (talk) 13:10, 16 November 2022 (UTC)
    • WP:UKPLACE gives the example of Jura, Scotland being an island that is comma disambiguated though that applied to WP:SCOTLANDPLACE most non settlement places in England are disambiguated with commas but regardless of that choice WP:PRECISE still generally requires disambiguators to be unambiguous so this move would likely be necessary even if only settlements used comma disambiguation.

• Support per nom or move to Woodside, Berkshire (hamlet). -- Necrothesp (talk) 13:13, 16 November 2022 (UTC)

  Yeah that option may well be better, I'd probably actually support that over the district option if it is indeed in multiple districts. Crouch, Swale (talk) 22:52, 22 November 2022 (UTC)

Relisting comment: I think a second relist would be beneficial to determining consensus here. echidnaLives - talk - edits 06:57, 14 December 2022 (UTC)

• Support per nom. Or use Woodside, Berkshire (hamlet). I don't much like using comma disambiguation for entitles that aren't places, but that's not a truck for this discussion. Either way, it's ambiguous so should be moved. Didn't really need another relist if I@m honest, EchidnaLives  — Amakuru (talk) 13:17, 14 December 2022 (UTC)
