Village Green, Los Angeles, California

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

Redundant to Village Green (Los Angeles). Both are covering developments in Baldwin Hills. The content from the two should be merged, and placed at Village Green, Los Angeles Purplebackpack89  (Notes Taken)  (Locker) 18:58, 24 April 2010 (UTC)

 * Delete/merge I agree the articles are redundant, and the article currently titled Village Green (Los Angeles) has more content and is the one to keep. But I think the title of the surviving article should be Village Green, Los Angeles, California since that is the style for most neighborhoods in LA. For example Canoga Park, Los Angeles, California; Van Nuys, Los Angeles, California; Hancock Park, Los Angeles, California; etc. The same style is used pretty consistently for neighborhoods in San Diego, San Francisco and Oakland; I don't know about the rest of the country. --MelanieN (talk) 23:35, 24 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment Most style guides indicate Los Angeles is one of the cities that can be discussed without mentioning the state. --TorriTorri(Talk to me!) 02:07, 25 April 2010 (UTC)
 * He's right. There's actually a process going on as we speak to drop the "California" from most of the LA neighborhoods  Purplebackpack89  (Notes Taken)  (Locker) 21:05, 25 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Merge Just merge any relevant information and redirect that article to the pre-existing article.  Mr. C.C. Hey yo!I didn't do it! 00:24, 25 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Merge AfD isn't really the venue for this. --TorriTorri(Talk to me!) 02:08, 25 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment: I put what little revelant information was in this article into the other Village Green article, and retitled it Village Green, Los Angeles  Purplebackpack89  (Notes Taken)  (Locker) 18:17, 25 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment So it's safe to redirect the article and close this AfD?  Mr. C.C. Hey yo!I didn't do it! 06:04, 26 April 2010 (UTC)
 * I guess. I just redirected the article, you can close the AFD.  Sorry i didn't get back to you sooner.  Purplebackpack89  (Notes Taken)  (Locker) 22:52, 28 April 2010 (UTC)
