Civil parish or Denominational Church?

[edit]

This article needs to make up its mind; it's either about a civil parish or it's about a particular piece of bricks and mortar currently controlled by a particular denomination. If the former, then it needs to contain information about the civil parish, barony and county. The name should also reflect that purpose e.g. "St. X (civil parish)" or "Civil parish of St. X". On the other hand, if the article's purpose is closer to the latter, then why does it have a category of civil parish? If the article deals exclusively with the bricks and mortar aspect, then it's other legal function is no more than a co-incidence. Laurel Lodged (talk) 20:42, 16 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

This discussion has been here for almost a month with no input from the main editor. There is a discussion on the WikiIreland talk page where that editor has made contributions. These have been found to be generally lacking in merit. Another editor has given notice that he intends to take action on the inappropriate categirisation. This is to give notice that I intend to remove the civil parishe category in 2 days time. Laurel Lodged (talk) 18:10, 13 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

What does this mean?

[edit]

"The Parish - The parish was cut off from that of St. Andrew by Act of Parliament in 1707. It corresponded to the civil parish of the same name." What corresponds - The Parish, or the parish of St. Andrew, or the Act of Parliament? And which civil parish? And how about a bit of WHY as well. Kiltpin (talk) 16:00, 29 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
