Since there are Bishops of Edmonton in Edmonton, Canada as well. Kevlar67 03:20, 8 February 2007 (UTC)
A map showing how the diocese's boundaries differ from Greater London's would be useful - see London postal district#Relationship to London boundary or 020 (UK dial code) for similar ones. Timrollpickering 16:13, 17 August 2007 (UTC)
Please find here the coat of arms of the diocese. I am a little bit reluctant to insert it by myself because of the funny layout with these boxes. Is anyone interested?-- Rabe! ( talk) 07:07, 9 May 2012 (UTC)
The long-standing wording in this and other CofE diocese articles has been:

I have been reverting these edits but he has been reinstating them (contrary to WP:BRD). We both maintain that 'our own' phrasing is more neutral. What do others think? DBD 18:36, 21 June 2015 (UTC)
I think both of you could spend their time better by discussing how many angels can dance on the head of a pin. DDStretch (talk) 05:02, 22 June 2015 (UTC)
Good points well made, Afterwriting. I will be happy to concede on this matter. So long as we're not writing "women priests"! ;P DBD 17:23, 24 June 2015 (UTC)
It is very unfortunate that User:Fastifex did not have the courtesy to seek a consensus before moving this article to a contentious disambiguation page at Diocese of London. If any other editors have an opinion on this move then I invite you to discuss it and express your thoughts on whether the move should be retained or reverted.

While consistency is sometimes helpful — such as all Anglican dioceses being at Anglican Diocese of X — it isn't a necessity, and can be misleading, especially in the case of certain Church of England sees which have been in continuous existence since before the concept of 'Anglican' existed (i.e. before the C of E became fully independent). I am pretty certain there is no danger of ambiguity with the RC Archdiocese of Westminster, although perhaps a case could be made for ambiguity with the RC diocese in Ontario. I suspect we would conclude that the British See is the primary usage; and we seem to consistently name RC dioceses as Roman Catholic (Archd/D)iocese of Y anyway. DBD 16:02, 16 August 2015 (UTC)
Various deaneries in the Edmonton Episcopal Area have been merged. E.g., there are no longer West Barnet and Central Barnet Deaneries but a Barnet (London) Deanery (to be distinguished from the Barnet deanery which belongs to the Diocese of St Albans). 89.242.93.255 ( talk) 12:35, 2 May 2023 (UTC)
