- delete we don't just keep every name on an official map in the US and I see no reason not to do the same in the UK. Searches give no indication of any notability; almost everything is a real estate listing or routine governmental material. Mangoe (talk) 03:39, 9 August 2023 (UTC)

Keep.Don't think WP:GEOLAND applies as although populated there is lack of evidence of it being legally recognised. Did consider a redirect/merge to Cramond as it was/(is?)in that parish; however that article concentrates on the coastal Cramond village and looks fairly self-contained. Braepark to the south of Cramond village appears to be the name now in use for the area of an historic estate called Braehead. The article could be expanded with detail on the Braehead Estate [2], the Cramond Old Bridge [3] and the Braehead Mains statue [4]. The article would also be a good reciprocal link to William Houison Craufurd of Braehead. In summary, there's definite potential for this article from a historical angle so I believe a Keep opinion is justified. (If there was nothing to expand the article with and Braepark was merely a modern housing estate on former agricultural land, I would have !voted delete.) Rupples (talk) 23:31, 20 August 2023 (UTC)
- Taken a further look at this and decided to withdraw Keep !vote. AFAICS Edinburgh Council do not refer to Braepark as a separate neighbourhood. The historical interest features I referred to above are included within a part of Cramond Conservation Area named Cramond Brig. The name "Braepark" only seems to be referenced in property sales. GNG is not satisfied for the name "Braepark". May be best to add the historical detail to Cramond after all. Not sure even a redirect for "Braepark" is required.
