[edit] Civil Parish article

Extracted from the guidelines at Wikipedia:WikiProject UK geography/How to write about settlements.

Writing about the smallest of settlements in the UK can be difficult due to the lack of source material, especially when compared with the country's major metropolises. Some of the UK's smallest settlements may form part of a civil parish or council ward. Country hamlets and villages may mention significant places that might not be considered part of the village, but which lie within the parish or ward. Hamlets that are within another parish or council ward could have their own articles, but if there is no more than a couple of paragraphs that could be said about the hamlet it may be best practice to merge the articles.

Salehurst and Robertsbridge is the Civil Parish, as such we will need to create the Salehurst and Robertsbridge article. The question is do we merge the two village articles into the Civil Parish article?

I think merge, the infobox relates to the Parish. There is duplicated information within the articles eg the Cistercian monks. MortimerCat (talk) 09:26, 3 May 2008 (UTC)

I am creating the Parish article and tidying Salehurst and Robertsbridge so they only refer to the village. The villages have enough information to stand on their own. MortimerCat (talk) 07:44, 18 May 2008 (UTC)
