  No I have not explained it well then. Try to think of it in terms of postal 
districts or voting districts. As a town grows, generally neighboring villages 
are annexed, but they do not lose their postal codes or voting district names. 
This is just as true for the original "core" district as it is for any other 
municipal district. In this case the core district and the wider municipal area 
have the same name. That is all.

  So if I understand it correctly, Q33512910 is the historical entity of 
Wageningen and Q1305 is the current city of Wageningen? What exactly is meant 
by historical? 100 years, 10 years? ... Also can we not report in the current 
wageningen historical changes using e.g. the end time property? In the "old" 
city it should then be clearly mentioned that this is an old city with a rough 
end estimation or not?

  Yes sorry if the statements seem so ambiguous, this is just one of many cases 
where such things occur. One is a historic city and one is a current city. The 
problem probably arises because there is so little left of the original 
historic center in today's city, due to WWII bombing. The maps of both should 
make it clear, as do the titles in cebwiki themselves, which simply reflect the 
Dutch. A municipality has generally over time annexed various lands due to 
growth. The historic city limits generally follow some historic city wall 
footprint, though in this case it is hard to tell.

  I added additional screen-dumps. I was assuming this is a default wikidata 
feature, but I guess its something I installed a long time ago.

  I am back and after checking, happy to report I was right. One is the town, 
and the other is the municipality. They are not the same and should not be 
merged.
