Navops47 would you please explain why you have just created a content fork of this page at Bombay Dockyard (Royal Navy)? This page is barely 9k, while your new page is about 10kB. WP:SIZERULE indicates the first time we need to consider splitting pages is at about 40kB. You've just created a double page on essentially the same subject - a time period that is already covered here and just needs expansion, not content forking!! Please WP:MERGE the two pages on the same subject. Buckshot06 (talk) 14:59, 11 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Buckshot06 Considering that the dockyard has been renamed and that it has a new and distinct identity since it has been controlled by the Indian Navy, it makes sense to me that it should have a separate article, and is therefore not a simple content fork. This should encourage editors to expand the Royal Navy article to include additional history (which Navops47 did), whilst this article can be expanded to cover current topics. One could also remove history that is not relevant to the current dockyard. I am awaiting some confirmation from other editors before I rename (move) the whole page to Naval Dockyard (Mumbai). Do you agree? My Gussie (talk) 03:11, 21 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Buckshot06: I'm sorry I made a mistake in my previous reply and my notification to you failed. I've since gone ahead and moved (renamed) the page to the new name. Obviously, this article needs some cleanup, which I plan to start. Please let me know if you have any thoughts on this, thanks :) My Gussie (talk) 02:20, 26 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
