Rename ?

[edit]

A search of things surprises me, a lot. Did you know there were two cemeteries in Balmain, well, Leichhardt.
Does this merit a name change to Balmain General Cemetery ?
or Balmain Cemeteries and show both in sections
I'm working on an entry for the Balmain Catholic Cemetery, and today I see it on an old parish map as Rom. Cath. Cemy (space limitations). Dave Rave (talk) 08:22, 30 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

It doesn't look like it's ever really referred to as Balmain General Cemetery, so WP:COMMONNAME would dictate that it go at "Balmain Cemetery". Might be an idea to just disambiguate it from the new article with hatnotes. The Drover's Wife (talk) 21:53, 30 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
the Petersham Historic Map shows General, page 6, bottom entry, not much else atm HLVR
and then this entry at the bottom, possibly because they are next to each other shows the names, and the last entry is from the cemetery management
I'm not fussed, it can be included in the opening paragraph Dave Rave (talk) 08:10, 1 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
