Is there a reason why Category:Maidstone isn't a disambiguator, and this category renamed Category:Maidstone, Kent? There are a lot of other Category:Maidstone something else categories. Geo Swan (talk) 18:17, 23 March 2023 (UTC)
- Because the capital of Kent is far larger and the original. Crouch, Swale (talk) 16:03, 25 March 2023 (UTC)
- The principle was that the original took the prime name, and the derivatives would be XXXX(disambiguation). It was in existence in 975 and has had a grammar school since 1549. Sorry if the convention is changing. ClemRutter (talk) 20:01, 1 April 2023 (UTC)
- Principle still applies, many examples eg Cambridge, London, Norwich etc etc Ardfern (talk) 05:45, 12 March 2024 (UTC)
