[edit] Hastings/Bexhill
No evidence has been offered of the existence or notability of this supposed "unrecognised conurbation"; moreover the associated redirect pages Greater Hastings/Bexhill and Seaspray (conurbation) would appear to be fictitious. This page previously PRODed, PROD endoresed by another editor but removed by original author of the article}} --rossb (talk)

- Delete - completely OR and made up. An unrecognised conurbation? Of two places that while close to each other do definitely not run into each other? Also prodded but no explanation to keep was ever provided other than a note asking why it can't be kept. Canterbury Tail talk 13:42, 1 March 2008 (UTC)
- Delete As a local, I have never known the two towns to be regarded as a single entity. The two towns are not even joined, a separate parish St Leonards-on-Sea divides the two. Putney Bridge (talk) 13:47, 1 March 2008 (UTC)
- Delete per WP:NEO and WP:V. No sources cited or found for evidence of usage. • Gene93k (talk) 13:52, 1 March 2008 (UTC)
- Delete, notability not established. -- Roleplayer (talk) 15:02, 1 March 2008 (UTC)
- Delete, there are a few Google results, on council websites[1] but they appear to be about a possible future development. Verifiable information could be mentioned in the separate town articles but to create a separate article for this neologism is not necessary, particularly as it has not had significant coverage in reliable sources. The only non-Wikipedia result[2] for "Greater Hastings/Bexhill" is also on a council website, and refers to an area, not a conurbation. It is also a non-notable neologism. The Seaspray name appears to be completely fictitious, and I removed it from the article when I added the {{prod2}}. --Snigbrook (talk) 15:19, 1 March 2008 (UTC)
