Nothing to differentiate this from Lewsey
[edit]There is nothing which differentiates this from Lewsey - Seems to simply be an alternate name for the same place. Indeed, this article seems to be a virtual cut and paste of the Lewsey article, with minor changes made. Is there some official site in the UK (like the GNIS site for US locations), which can state these are indeed two different locations, and that they are both notable? Is Lewsey Farms a neighborhood in Lewsey? I am not seeing anything which indicates that a virtually identical article needs to happen. Onel5969 TT me 14:54, 17 April 2018 (UTC)
- There are no official means for naming suburbs in th UK, all suburbs are simply colloquially named and are sometimes used on maps and sometimes not. However, Lewsey, Lewsey Park, and Lewsey Farm are used enough separately and are well defined enough to warrant separate articles. The most official source which includes both suburbs is the Luton bus routes, see https://bustimes.org/localities/luton-beds if you click on each suburb you can clearly see the separate areas they contain.

- Then why are the two articles virtually identical? If they are two distinct locales, then the articles should be about those particular places. Nothing you've said indicates that this is other than a generic local name for a certain area, and as such does not meet either WP:GNG or WP:WP:GEOLAND. Onel5969 TT me 15:10, 17 April 2018 (UTC)
Currently adding info - see just added local Area info LordDaly1 (talk) 15:26, 17 April 2018 (UTC)
The only sections which are identical are the history sections, as when the areas were open countryside the land of both was owned by the same Lucy or “Lewsey” family, so the names Lewsey and Lewsey Farm are derived from the same origin LordDaly1 (talk) 15:28, 17 April 2018 (UTC)
