St Ellyw or St Elli?

[edit]

Is this the same as St Elli's Church mentioned in the Llanelli article? If so, its alternative name needs mentioning/explaining here. Sionk (talk) 22:44, 16 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The names in the article have been changed by Frjimflanagan, so I have checked. Both Coflein and the Church in Wales head their webpages with 'St Elli Church' (without a possessive " 's").[1][2] The map in the Coflien page confirms that this is the same church. I will move the article to St Elli Church, Llanelli, and edit the article to give the alternative and historic name. Some might argue that the disambiguation is not needed because we have no St Elli Church article, but I think that should be a disambuguation page between this church and St Elli's Church, Llanelly.

Perhaps I was a bit hasty, it's not quite as I had stated it. I was looking at the Coflien article headed "St Elli Church, Llanelli",[3] but that article is on the churchyard cross, not on the church itself. Coflein's article on the church is titled "St Ellyw's Church, Bridge Street, Llanelli".[4], but its text begins "St Elli's Church is situated within a triangular churchyard". I cannot find a church noticeboard on Google StreetView. However, I still think the new article title is correct. Verbcatcher (talk) 19:39, 6 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
