 * Reviewing. &#x222F; WBG converse 19:55, 3 May 2019 (UTC) On re-thoughts, I have been in a lot of conflict with  of late and impressions of un-involvedness are important  &#x222F; WBG converse 20:22, 3 May 2019 (UTC)
 * This seems to be text-book WP:NOPAGE candidate to my eyes. Why can't the last two paragraphs (of the History section) be covered at the parent article -- West Pier ? I guess that's solely because the last major contribution was during the 2015 GAR, which predated the events. -- What say you?  &#x222F; WBG converse 20:22, 3 May 2019 (UTC)
 * I'd be inclined to agree, actually; the independent commentary contained in the last couple of paragraphs would easily fit into a new section on the Trust within the main article with no danger of being WP:UNDUE. ——  SerialNumber  54129  11:40, 4 May 2019 (UTC)
 * In fact, on closer examination, the bulk of this article is the history of the pier, and the majority of the first two paragraphs of the "History" section are covered under the "Restoration" and "Decline and damage" sections of the parent article—including the hook itself! The only original material in this article would appear to be the crowdfunding of £750,000, the (mention of the) kiosk and the two sentences about the WPT's leadership. ——  SerialNumber  54129  12:42, 4 May 2019 (UTC)
 * That's why I said :- Why can't the last two paragraphs (of the History section) ..... ; the rest are near-entirely covered at the parent article and in a better manner:-) &#x222F; WBG converse 13:15, 4 May 2019 (UTC)
 * I have boldly redirected the article after merging the content. &#x222F; WBG converse 18:33, 4 May 2019 (UTC)
