I propose merging the four disambiguation pages about Catholic churches named "Immaculate Conception" or variants (including e.g. Spanish: Concepción):

Basilica of the Immaculate Conception (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)
Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)
Cathedral of Saint Mary of the Immaculate Conception (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)
Church of the Immaculate Conception (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)

Input welcome below. Sai ¿?✍

@Materialscientist: per WP:MERGEINIT, This is usually done on the proposed destination page's talk page. Exceptions: If the destination does not exist, do not create its talk page (it could get speedily deleted). --John B123 (talk) 14:34, 22 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

And I'll add that it's also not necessary to create the target article; that can be done if consensus suggests that a merge is feasible. On the question of the merge, oppose, as I think that the current structure is fine. Indeed, each of those tab pages could be re-badged as Set index articles. My view is that a merged joint list would be too long for readers to quickly find the most likely specific page. Klbrain (talk) 14:50, 22 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose - As above, a merged list would be far too long, --John B123 (talk) 15:43, 22 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. A single DAB page would be too large to navigate comfortably.

Also oppose turning any of these pages from DABs into SIAs. They are about buildings which have nothing in common except the dedication. SIAs collect bad links which rarely get fixed. Narky Blert (talk) 10:32, 29 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
