:”’Oppose”’. We would need to know the [[Ordnance Survey]] policy on geographical names to know whether or not their usage is relevant here, my guess is that it is not, but in the absence of energy either way can’t give it any authority.

Why is this places so prominent on WikiMiniAtlas (second only to London among places in the UK)? It’s not very large, nor is it very important. I’d fix it, but I’m not sure how. Someone the Person (talk) 21:46, 4 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

May be best to ask at another forum rather than here. May be you could ask at WP:VPT and someone there will point you in the right direction. By the way thanks for the pointer as after a look I spotted several articles that are incorrectly in the North Sea! Keith D (talk) 23:11, 4 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
