Highfield School

There is a new article on Highfield School which I hope to expand. Any help with it would be appreciated. It would be great if this article could mention the School since it is in the Highfield area. Calineed 17:50, 8 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I've found the mention in this article and linked it. Calineed 17:55, 8 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Merge

I am against the proposed merge of articles suggested it would cause a loss of information in many cases and an overloading of the main page. Notably a similar set of proposals was made by an anonymous user to disrupt the Portsmouth page and those of its schools information is here and also here -- Drappel 21:41, 8 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Naming of articles about city suburbs

Can someone explain why the articles about the city suburbs have the suffix Hampshire rather than Southampton? e.g. Shirley, Hampshire rather than Shirley, Southampton (which is now a re-direct). As a Shirley resident, I don't consider that I live in Hampshire but rather in the City of Southampton, and I'm proud of it. On looking at the edit history, most of the articles were re-named in November 2006, with the edit summary "correct form of disambiguation". Where is this policy set out? Can you imagine renaming say, Edge Hill, Liverpool to Edge Hill, Lancashire simply because it falls within the boundaries of the old county of Lancashire?

I note that the change the above editor wanted has happened at some point, and they do all have Southampton as a suffix now Mnb20 (talk) 12:34, 22 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
