Gorakhpur Zoo → Shaheed Ashfaq Ullah Khan Zoological Park – It is a newly opened Zoo. Some people changed it's name at Wikipedia saying that Gorakhpur Zoo is a common name. For a newly opened place, I don't think policy of common name should be placed when even before opening it has the same name as it has now. PS - It is named after someone who is from Minority community, maybe this would be problem for some people. Curaj 4 (talk) 18:47, 26 May 2022 (UTC)Reply

Oppose: WP:COMMONNAME applies. The website is https://gorakhpurzoo.org/ and "Gorakhpur Zoo" appears on their own website as the second line. The media very clearly favors Gorakhpur Zoo, compare [1] to [2]. --Muhandes (talk) 07:33, 30 May 2022 (UTC)Reply
Oppose. Clear common name used on their own website. -- Necrothesp (talk) 13:24, 31 May 2022 (UTC)Reply
