Category:London Boroughs (in the UK) Categories for the London Boroughs of London need to be renamed to their proper full name. Currently, it is too easy to confuse them with London towns that have the same name. This may be why so few images of London have a geographical category. This change would also bring WC into line with en:WP as per en:Category:London_Borough. For all the London boroughs Rename: Category:Barking & Dagenham to Category:London Borough of Barking and Dagenham Category:Bexley to Category:London Borough of Bexley Category:Barnet to Category:London Borough of Barnet Category:Brent to Category:London Borough of Brent Category:Camden to Category:London Borough of Camden Category:Croydon to Category:London Borough of Croydon Category:Ealing to Category:London Borough of Ealing Category:Enfield to Category:London Borough of Enfield Category:Greenwich to Category:London Borough of Greenwich Category:Hackney to Category:London Borough of Hackney Category:Hammersmith & Fulham to Category:London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham Category:Haringey to Category:London Borough of Haringey Category:Harrow to Category:London Borough of Harrow Category:Hillingdon to Category:London Borough of Hillingdon Category:Hounslow to Category:London Borough of Hounslow Category: Islington to Category:London Borough of Islington Category:Kensington and Chelsea to Category:Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea Note: Royal bor. Category:Kingston upon Thames to Category:Royal Borough of Kingston upon Thames Note: Royal bor. Category:Lambeth to Category:London Borough of Lambeth Category:Lewisham to Category:London Borough of Lewisham Category:Merton to Category:London Borough of Merton Category:Newham to Category:London Borough of Newham Category:Redbridge to Category:London Borough of Redbridge Category:Richmond to Category:London Borough of Richmond upon Thames Category:Sutton to Category:London Borough of Sutton Category:Southwark to Category:London Borough of Southwark Category:Tower Hamlets to Category:London Borough of Tower Hamlets Category:Waltham Forest merge into Category:London Borough of Waltham Forest Category:Wandsworth to Category:London Borough of Wandsworth --P.g.champion (talk) 23:31, 12 January 2009 (UTC) Strong support - is there someone who can make these moves quickly and easily, as they are much needed, particularly as town/village/settlement areas are so indistinct in London, whereas boroughs are clear. Although, notably, they'll need to be set so that in Category:London Boroughs they appear in order by name rather than all under L or R! Tafkam (talk) 19:23, 18 February 2009 (UTC) Strong support - Jmabel ! talk 02:50, 5 March 2009 (UTC) The de facto standard of Commons locality disambiguation would be Category:Barnet, borough of London and is much easier to find, especially with HotCat. --Foroa (talk) 09:05, 1 May 2009 (UTC) That would be fine with me, too. But I think the current naming is not appropriate. - Jmabel ! talk 05:44, 6 September 2009 (UTC)  Info. The Wikipedia category is now at en:Category:London boroughs. There was discussion at cfd there. -- User:Docu at 11:20, 26 October 2009 (UTC)  Done per suggestion Foroa - they are now called Placename, (Royal) borough of London. -- Deadstar (msg) 16:41, 10 November 2009 (UTC) Fixed capitalisation to Placename, Royal Borough or Placename, Borough of London per suggestion on my talkpage. -- Deadstar (msg) 10:23, 11 November 2009 (UTC)

Support: this is a correction to come in line with policy rather than a name change. --P.g.champion (talk) 23:47, 9 November 2009 (UTC)
