Talk:Holsworthy

Hello fellow holsworthy people.

I think we should get more pictures in here and expand on the history of holsworthy.

Gruesome alegation:

the article "Builders' Rites" states that: "In the 15th century, the wall of Holsworthy church was built over a living human being".

Is there anything in this? 141.243.9.139 (talk) 02:09, 7 May 2010 (UTC) I've added a ref to it but I'm not sure it should be included --HolsworthyDave 14:32, 29 December 2014 (UTC)  — Preceding unsigned comment added by HolsworthyDave (talk • contribs)

I intend to remove Barbara Mandell from the Notable people section because, although 'Notable' she did not 'live for a significant amount of time' in Holsworthy (if ever). All that I can establish is that she moved to Devon in 1992 and died in Holsworthy in 1998.

Holsworthy, Devon → Holsworthy – Per WP:2DABPRIMARY this one gets more views that the Australian one [|Holsworthy,_New_South_Wales] and the Australian one is named after this one. The other topics are PTMs that just refer to these 2 places therefore the DAB can be ditched.  Crouch, Swale  ( talk ) 18:26, 24 October 2018 (UTC)
 * Support. Pageview analysis for last 3 years says the Devon one gets twice the views, has been edited four times as much, and is three times as long, so it seems pretty clear it's the primary topic of the two. Qwfp (talk) 18:55, 24 October 2018 (UTC)
 * Support per WP:PRIMARYTOPIC and evidence cited above. It's unfortunate that requests like this can't simply be made in the uncontroversial section of RM. --В²C ☎ 21:53, 24 October 2018 (UTC)
