== Reorganisation of the "Lippe" articles == |

I propose to |

* move the article "Lippe" about the district of Lippe to "Lippe (district)", |

* move the article "Principality of Lippe" to "Lippe", to be generally about the state of Lippe, |

* merge the article "Free state of Lippe" into said article "Lippe". |
|||
Currently there is no article about the state of Lippe, but two about two different historic periods of it, one of those being a stub. There should be one article about the state as such, and I don't see enough content to have main articles about historic periods. |
|||
Furthermore the article with simply "Lippe" should be about the state, not the district. --[[User:Caballito|Caballito]] ([[User talk:Caballito|talk]]) 14:18, 14 April 2009 (UTC) |

Reorganisation of the "Lippe" articles
[edit]I propose to
- move the article "Lippe" about the district of Lippe to "Lippe (district)",
- move the article "Principality of Lippe" to "Lippe", to be generally about the state of Lippe,
- merge the article "Free state of Lippe" into said article "Lippe".
Currently there is no article about the state of Lippe, but two about two different historic periods of it, one of those being a stub. There should be one article about the state as such, and I don't see enough content to have main articles about historic periods.
Furthermore the article with simply "Lippe" should be about the state, not the district. --Caballito (talk) 14:18, 14 April 2009 (UTC)
Requested move 25 July 2016

– "Lippe" is the name of the former German Principality of Lippe, the former Free State of Lippe, the eponymous Lippe (river), the House of Lippe, and the surname of several people. While the river might possibly constitute WP:PRIMARYTOPIC, it clearly is an inadequate title for the eponymous administrative district that is anyway usually referred to as "Kreis Lippe" in German and as "Lippe District" in English. The very least we should do is adding a disambiguator, as previously proposed by Caballito, but pending further discussion on a new, consistent naming scheme. -- PanchoS (talk) 12:36, 25 July 2016 (UTC)
