Distinguishing between boroughs and districts

The location of the borough of Southwark on Mr Smith's map. (TV: Revenge of the Slitheen)

The DWU currently holds different two Southwarks, which could be a cause for confusion: Southwark the borough, and Southwark the town/district within the borough of the same name. The borough was shown on a map in Revenge of the Slitheen. The town/district was shown in The Shakespeare Code, and appeared on a London street map in The Lie of the Land - where it is shown to neighbour Bermondsey (also suggested to be part of the Borough of Southwark when combining the map with that in Revenge of the Slitheen). To perhaps avoid confusion, and to futureproof the page, I suggest creating a new page titled London Borough of Southwark (the name for the borough as given in Father's Day) and spltting the information between the two pages. In this case, where there is any debate regarding whether info relates to borough or town/district, it should be placed in the wider borough. 66 Seconds ☎ 12:10, May 25, 2020 (UTC)

That sounds alright to me, as long as the two places are identified as being separate within the DWU. Placing indiscernible information in the borough also works quite well, with the district being within the borough anyway. Danochy ☎ 12:15, May 25, 2020 (UTC)
