– No clear primary topic, the one in County Kilkenny has 706 views, its constituency has 9 and its station has 44 but the one in Victoria has 908, its station has 96, the Mississippi one has 49, the Virginia one has 12 and the Rhondda Cynon Taf one has 11[]. The Kilkenny one has a population of 2,445 while the one in Victoria has a population of 14,234 however the one in Victoria isn't a separate settlement and it may be named after the one in Kilkenny however its unlikely the other Irish ones were or the Rhondda Cynon Taf one. Australian settlements are commonly referred to with the state unlike in Ireland but I'd say there is still no obvious primary topic especially give the other Irish parish.

 * Let's make sure we're looking at an all-time view of page view statistics at least:, where there's comparable traffic for the Australian location as well as a long tail, and the clickstreams: where we don't see a lot of identified traffic but still recognize 12 hatnote clicks at #3 and it is certainly comparable with other outgoing traffic (~1% of incoming ~23% of identified outgoing). These definitely hint at a lack of primary topic by usage, so unless there's a compelling long-term significance argument for the status quo, we should try it. --Joy (talk) 09:08, 20 March 2024 (UTC)
