This seems pretty obvious but I thought it might be worth discussing.
Wootton is the common name, and Wootton Bridge is the formal name, but there is nothing in either article that could not sensibly appear in the other. As Wootton Bridge is a unique name, and there are quite a few other Woottons elsewhere, Wootton Bridge seems the sensible choice to be the main article, and a redirect can remain at Wootton, Isle of Wight.

I have now added many more references for this article to a variety of reliable sites, as well as adding access and retrieval dates to existing references. Most facts in the article now have references to support them. As this has now been done, I have removed it from 'Category:Unreferenced Isle of Wight-related articles'. I hope this is ok with everyone else... Editor5807 speak 19:20, 6 September 2008 (UTC)
"Victorian admiral Sir John Baird, who died in 1908, is buried in the churchyard in Wootton Bridge." The article mentions two churches in the parish. It does not mention the Methodist church. It should be made clear which of these houses the admiral. TheMadBaron ( talk) 02:34, 21 February 2012 (UTC)
The article was moved without discussion to Wootton, Isle of Wight. I'm fairly sure that this should at least have had a discussion and maybe a vote, because it's certainly something that has caused contention in the past. Naturenet | Talk 11:12, 5 July 2015 (UTC)
