Kempegowda International AirportBengaluru Airport – Majority of English Language Sources uses "Bengaluru Airport" or "Bengaluru International Airport" so as per WP:COMMONNAME I request to Move/rename the article. ಹುಲಿ🐯 talk 11:54, 13 March 2023 (UTC)Reply

Restoration edit

Note that I have restored this name per this discussion]. As I noted in my edit summary, this appears to be the most recent talk page discussion and it concluded that this article should be at Bengaluru Airport per WP:AIRPORTNAME and WP:COMMONNAME. This was reverted by a user seemingly unilaterally (I cannot find a discussion). If it should be at Kempegowda International Airport, then there should be a new discussion opened.

The ownership is wrong I believe. It is not Fairfax financial. It is Fairfax India holding that owns through another company an majority share. 212.107.146.227 (talk) 23:49, 29 March 2024 (UTC)Reply

Requested move 4 May 2024 edit

Bengaluru AirportBangalore Airport – This article has gone through a number of move changes but the most recent discussion (seen above) concluded that it should be named Bengaluru Airport. One editor has unilaterally moved the article to reflect the airport's official name without opening a new discussion which I have undone. However, upon reflection, I feel that the WP:COMMONNAME for this article would be Bangalore Airport. This would reflect the consensus seen at Talk:Bangalore#Requested_move_21_March_2024 that Bangalore is the common name of the city, not Bengaluru. Bangalore is also what major English-speaking international carriers describe the airport as including United [1] and British Airways [2]. Qantas, meanwhile, feels the need to clarify that Bengaluru is Bangalore using quotations further underlining that Bangalore is more common [3]. Avgeekamfot (talk) 11:21, 4 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
