On 13 July 2025, it was proposed that this article be moved from Kāhui St David's to St David's Memorial Church. The result of the discussion was moved to St David's Memorial Church, Auckland.

Requested move 13 July 2025

The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

The result of the move request was: moved. No further discussion on WP:PRIMARYTOPIC occurred after brief list. Moving to St David's Memorial Church, Auckland. St David's Church, Grafton will be a redirect but may be WP:OVERPRECISION as the article tittle.

Moved as an uncontested request with minimal participation. If there is any objection within a reasonable time frame, please ask me to reopen the discussion; if I am not available, please ask at the technical requests page. (non-admin closure) – MrAussieGuy (Talk) 02:15, 25 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Kāhui St David's → St David's Memorial Church – Only 2 references actually mention 'Kahui St David's' both primary with one being a press release. The church is certainly notable but the music centre does not pass GNG nor is it the main focus of the article. I am not opposed to the name being St David's Church, Grafton if that is considered a more appropriate/common name.

Support on the basis that this article is on specifically the church building and barely anything on the centre now known as "Kāhui St David's". So support to be more WP:RECOGNISABLE to readers on the apparently more notable topic of the historic church. Not discouraging any re-write to include details on the centre and hopefully proves as much notability, but appears this article's scope is not on that. Dank Jae 19:17, 15 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Support on balance (as the page's creator) I can see the point in the change. I suggest St David's Memorial Church, Auckland as there is a St. David's Memorial Church, Cave. There's quite a variation in names in different sources. Both the NZHistory website and the Salmond Reed Architects report for the Auckland City Council call it St David's Memorial Church; Heritage NZ use St David's Presbyterian Church. I suggest the Kāhui St Davids page becomes a redirect to the church page.--Gertrude206 (talk) 07:20, 16 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
If a page is moved the old name is turned into a redirect and remains such unless deleted via the WP:RFD process. Traumnovelle (talk) 09:01, 16 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
The fact that St David's Memorial Church, Cave exists but the undisambiguated form is a red link is an oversight. It is preferred not to have a DAB page with just two entries although I am not really sure which church would be the primary topic. I am leaning towards the Cave church due to the Heritage New Zealand registration but the Auckland church may receive more page views due to being located in a large city.

Relisting comment: May require further discussion to determine the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC for the proposed name. – MrAussieGuy (Talk) 07:17, 21 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
