In some cases an administrative unit may have abolishment or similar. In some cases this may constitute a legal, geographical or name continuation which may mean it may make sense to have the article continue coverage rather than starting a new article when the change occurs.

Geographical continuation only

edit
  • Halstead Urban>Halstead 1 April 1974, same as Skegness above except new parish formed was called just "Halstead", UKBMD treats this as a rename. We correctly only have one article. Note that the name of the pre 1974 parish comes from "Halstead" parish being split in 1894.
  • Havant and Waterloo>Havant, same as Fareham above but "new" district named just "Havant". We correctly have 1 article though there is debate about 1932 changes.

Name continuation only

edit
  • Dumbleton 1 April 2023, parish was abolished and "Dumbleton" and "Wormington" parishes formed. UKBMD treats Wormington as being formed from "Dumbleton" with no mention of changes to Dumbleton. We correctly only have 1 article. Note that in 1935 Wormington became part of Dumbleton.
  • Simonswood 1 April 1994, parish was abolished and new one formed with more area, UKBMD doesn't mention abolishment. We correctly only have 1 article.
