Merge proposal edit

Guidelines at Wikipedia:WikiProject UK geography/How to write about settlements state that ideally the civil parish (Climping) should be the catch-all article, avoiding single line articles on every village and landmark within the parish.

Therefore, I suggest villages within the parish (Atherington, West Sussex) to be merged and redirected to Climping. ++ MortimerCat (talk) 23:58, 22 March 2009 (UTC)Reply

Spelling edit

This article uses the spellings "Clymping" and "Climping" interchangeably. Are both used locally? Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 18:23, 30 September 2014 (UTC)Reply

Yes, both are used. For example, the parish council (as "Clymping Parish Council"), the parish church (sometimes as "St Mary at Clymping"), and the local magazine ("Clymping Village News") all prefer the "y" form. But in many other contexts, "Climping" is used. I would myself prefer the "i" form. And I think it is a sound choice for the article name. But it is, unfortunately, not easy to impose what would be a desirable consistency on the article without ignoring the choices made by local organisations in respect of their own names.

ClympingClimping – This is the name of the settlement but the civil parish is also spelled this way (though the council is "Clymping Parish Council"). "Clymping" gets about 24,500 Google hits, compared to 230,000 for Climping. Crouch, Swale (talk) 19:22, 27 January 2019 (UTC)Reply
