Talk:Downside Abbey

message: Hi, I noticed that when the infobox is called 'Infobox monastery' instead of 'Infobox church' it doesn't display much of relevant information, such as the map, architecture and history - must be a quirk of Wiki. I know Downside is a monastery, but I think keeping the infobox as 'Infobox church' is better way to display all the information about the abbey. Hope this helps, Pjposullivan (talk) 22:14, 8 February 2013 (UTC)

message: The abbey and the basilica are distinct, whereas the first sentence conflates them with "The Basilica of St Gregory the Great, commonly known as Downside Abbey." 
Given that the monks are seeking a new home, this ought to be kept in mind: the abbey will always be the Abbey of St Gregory the Great until it is no more, and it may well remain Downside Abbey, just as Douai Abbey is such despite its location in Woolhampton and its dedication to St Edmund. 
Also clarification on the buildings which are protected (Grade I, etc.) ought to be provided. Is it the abbatial church which is also a basilica? Is it the entire building?

replies: text: Good points. I had a go at tidying the intro and added detail on the Grade I listed church in the article body, also a new section on the Grade II* monastery. Wire723 (talk) 18:46, 2 January 2021 (UTC)
