[edit]Why is this article not called "Newport City Bridge"? Martinevans123 (talk) 20:46, 13 May 2010 (UTC)
- Because that isn't the name of the bridge? Jeni (talk) 22:07, 13 May 2010 (UTC)
- It seems that Newport has made a certain claim to global precedence which is more understandable in the context of that city than on the pages of Wikipedia? How many articles do we have called "City Hall"? Martinevans123 (talk) 07:29, 14 May 2010 (UTC)
- How many other bridges named "City Bridge" do we have on Wikipedia? My last count was 0 so there is no need for disambiguation. Jeni (talk) 08:37, 14 May 2010 (UTC)
- Hmmm, careful Jeni, you must be tired out from all that counting. I was thinking more from the perspective of the non-frequent wiki user - if you search for "Newport City Bridge" you get 1,406 results, so maybe a redirect would be useful? I suppose everything is fine until someone decides that another city anywhere else in the world has a notable bridge with the same name. Martinevans123 (talk) 11:11, 14 May 2010 (UTC)
