Renaming?

Possibly better named Flodday, Sound of Barra to distinguish from Flodday near Vatersay. Finavon (talk) 11:29, 4 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I agree that more distinctive names would be helpful. Options:

Flodday, Sandray or Flodday, Bishop's Isles, or Flodday, Barra Isles or Flodday, Vatersay

and

~~Flodday, Sound of Barra, or Flodday, Fuiay~~

I think I'd go with Flodday, Bishop's Isles (makes it obvious) and Flodday, Sound of Barra (Flodday, Fuiay is just too silly). Ben Mac Dui 13:53, 4 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Move to Flodday, Sound of Barra carried out. Once the template links have purged, I'd like to delete the redirect Flodday near Barra, as it is ambiguous.

I'm less concerned about Flodday near Vatersay, which is at least clear, if not in accordance with any convention. It is not clear to me if the preferred name for the group is Bishop's Isles or Barra Isles. H-S mentions the former. Finavon (talk) 16:44, 4 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
