Change use[edit]

I've cancelled the re-direct and added text about this one from the Earl of Warwick page, as it's too cluttered over there and it seems reasonable to have separate pages for different institutions. Swanny18 (talk) 17:50, 4 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Page blanking[edit]

This page was blanked and replaced with a redirect to the Earl of Warwick page, without any discussion or prior notice and with very little explanation, at the end of November.
The matter has been discussed at length here and here and there was no outside support for this action. It was found by the majority of opinion to be contrary to WP:PEERAGE guidelines, which rule that “Titles should only share articles when one is totally connected to the other; (otherwise) there should be separate articles”. As the Brooke barony preceded the 1759 creation of the Earl of Warwick by 138 years these articles should be separate.
I have restored the page accordingly. Swanny18 (talk) 21:57, 15 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
