Beacon Villages

Either delete or convert to disambiguation page. The article is almost a dictionary definition of the word. Note on the use of the term can be merged to the four village articles.  Jolly  Ω   Janner  09:24, 9 November 2015 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * This is mentioned in South Devon & Dartmoor (Slow Travel) and websites for the villages but doesn't need a separate article. Disambiguate between Cosdon Beacon and Ivinghoe Beacon (where the villages are Pitstone, Marsworth, Ivinghoe and Cheddington). Peter James (talk) 22:52, 16 November 2015 (UTC)

 * Disambiguate. As pointed out by Peter James and per web search on, the term is also used for a group of villages in the Chilterns. Cosdon Beacon, being a notable feature of Dartmoor, should be promoted to an article where its associated villages can be mentioned.  —S MALL  JIM   12:19, 24 November 2015 (UTC)
