This article was once considered for a merger with another. That discussion became dormant with no strong consensus for change. No action was taken.
Below is the content of the original discussion.

I propose that Kemptown and Kemp Town be merged. The two pages show virtually the same information and this could all be shown on one page. A single page would also help to clear disambiguate the two and make it clear to readers when a space should be used and when it shouldn't.

Providing that the distinction between correct terms was made very clearly, I'd be in favour of this. To avoid any chance of the very name of the page indicating a "correct" usage, I'd suggest that the new page be titled with both names — something like "Kemptown and the Kemp Town estate", with redirects from the old page names. – Kierant 11:44, 29 March 2006 (UTC)
Sorry, I think on balance the articles should remain separate (though I may change my mind - I haven't completely thought it through).
Although the articles do have much common information, I believe that is mainly due to a combination of a lack of contributors' attention to which article is which, and also simply a lack of contributions. The Kemptown area, like most areas in B&H, merits an article of its own, and the Kemp Town estate merits its own article.
However if they are to be merged, I think Kierant's suggestion of "Kemptown and the Kemp Town estate" is a good one. --A bit iffy 12:16, 29 March 2006 (UTC)
