Picture of Woodley town centre
Culture :

Woodley → Woodley, Berkshire — There is also a location in Greater Manchester under Woodley, Greater Manchester. Hamish Griffin (talk) 18:15, 3 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose. This Woodley would appear to be the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC it's a town as opposed to a suburb of a town that is itself part of Greater Manchester and so this Woddley is an independent settlement whereas the one in Manchester is not. Additionally this Woodley gets many more of the top google hits. Dpmuk (talk) 21:28, 3 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Mild oppose - Dpmuk's point is not entirely valid, as Woodley (Berks) is effectively a suburb of Reading, just as the other Woodley is a suburb of Stockport or Manchester. However, the Berkshire one does appear to be somewhat more notable. Here are two map references: [1] and [2] for those interested... Which one is bigger? Not *that* much in it (and with both it's a bit difficult to know where one ends and the next town begins). Ho hum. — Amakuru (talk) 22:51, 5 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
