Revert edit

Just a few points about this edit:

  • we do not capitalise because it is SHOUTING
  • pub landlords are generally considered non-notable in the context of a world encyclopedia - Wikipedia is not a travel guide applies to that and other of my edits
  • there was absolutely no reason to throw out a grid ref
  • the tightest category is always preferred and an empty pipe on a category spec does not work: [[Category:Leicestershire| ]].

LittlethorpeLittlethorpe, Leicestershire – While this village is larger the North Yorkshire village is also a CP, Vision of Britain says it was only a hamlet, while the Yorkshire one being a village. Little Thorpe should also maybe be moved to Little Thorpe, County Durham and redirected to the new DAB, I will notify that page of this discussion. There is also a Domesday place in Essex.

Weak support for move of Littlethorpe. The Leicestershire village is slightly more notable but not much more. Little Thorpe seems to refer to the village in County Durham much more than to anything else and should not move - the Leicestershire village is two words in old Ordnance Survey maps but is one word now, and there's a hatnote to Little Thorpe, West Yorkshire, but that's only an area in Hartshead and probably not notable. I'm not sure about the place in Essex but it may be part of what is now Thorpe Bay. Peter James (talk) 18:19, 25 July 2018 (UTC)Reply
The one in Essex is here but we don't appear to cover it yet. Crouch, Swale (talk) 12:42, 1 August 2018 (UTC)Reply
