Rename[edit]

This article should be moved to St. Jean Baptiste's Church (New York City) to be more location specific. --James R (talk) 30 December 2010

There's no need for a location disambiguation, as it's the only article about a church by this name we have at present. And I was careful, when writing it, to use "Catholic" in its name as it seems from the church's own materials that the name includes that. The article you created should really just be turned into a redirect. Daniel Case (talk) 04:42, 31 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Merge[edit]

St. Jean Baptiste's Church (New York City) was created anyway, and since it is a duplicate of this, the older and more complete article, I suggest it be merged back, and any rename proposal be handled at RM as may be necessary.- choster (talk) 03:47, 30 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Absolutely. What's stopping you? "St. Jean Baptiste's Church (New York City)" is a wrong title and the content is mostly a copy/paste from St. Jean Baptiste Catholic Church. Clear duplication - just do it. PK T(alk) 15:32, 27 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Because it's polite to ask why something is the way it is before changing it.- choster (talk) 23:51, 28 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I support the merger. Daniel the Monk (talk) 20:38, 21 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
