Proposed merge with St Luke's Church, Euston Road

Its the same building, and should therefore form the same article.. The content relating to its former/Church of England use should form a section of Wanstead United Reformed Church. Gaia Octavia Agrippa ^Talk 06:54, 14 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Weak oppose. This is a ship of Theseus problem. If the building had only changed one of its name, its function or its location, a merge would seem sensible. As it moved 12km east, I'd dispute that sharing some of the same building material and some of the design (I'm not clear how much) make it the 'same' (or that the modern day photograph should be used). You could equally say that the successor of St Luke's Church, Euston Road is St Luke's Church, Kentish Town. Is St Luke's Church, Euston Road independently notable? As a mention of a former parish, it could be, but there hasn't been any chance yet for much historical information to be added. Having said all that, if the merge does go ahead, IMHO the two or three incoming links such as from Euston Road should be redirected to the section heading under its former location in order not to confuse readers. --Cedders^tk 18:45, 18 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Support merge of St Luke's Church, Euston Road to Wanstead United Reformed Church on the grounds that the focus of the current article is about the building (so we should follow the building rather than the parish) as do most of the links. I accept that more than one target for the merge is possible, but that it is better to pick one rather than being stuck between two bales of hay. Klbrain (talk) 08:18, 4 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Merger complete. Klbrain (talk) 20:08, 5 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
