Talk:Loomis, Washington

Tarred and feathered

Interesting story, but the article fails to say anything about the town itself.  -- WikHead (talk) 06:42, 18 September 2011 (UTC)

Requested move

The following discussion is an archived discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the move request was: Move. Rough consensus that this is the appropriate title as this is the only "Loomis, Washington" that has an article. Cúchullain ^t/c 12:54, 9 May 2013 (UTC)

Loomis, Okanogan County, Washington → Loomis, Washington – Unnecessary disambiguation with Okanogan County, and there are no other settlements in Washington known as Loomis. WP:USPLACE suggests the community and state name be placed, but not the county name if it is not required. Thus, this article should be renamed. TBrandley (T • C • B) 04:28, 25 April 2013 (UTC)

• Oppose – the nom has not addressed why he thinks the ambiguity represented on the disambig page Loomis, Washington does not require disambiguation, or what he would do with that page currently occupying the proposed new title. Hence, the RM is malformed. Dicklyon (talk) 06:34, 25 April 2013 (UTC)
• Oppose, per Dicklyon, in a nutshell. Tony (talk) 10:43, 26 April 2013 (UTC)
• Support. Obviously to allow this move, Loomis, Washington would be moved to Loomis, Washington (disambiguation), or even better, merged into Loomis. There is another Loomis, Washington, which does not have an article, and seems unlikely to ever have the same traffic as this location. The dis page has been viewed 356 times in the last 90 days, this location, 477 times. The only other article on the dis page has been viewed 284 times during the same period.

• Support The other Loomis doesn't seem to have ever been an actual settlement, just a mansion and train station. The Loomis, Pacific County referred to on the dab doesn't appear to have actually existed. A hatnote to Loomis station will be sufficient; the dab is unnecessary per WP:TWODABS. --BDD (talk) 21:40, 7 May 2013 (UTC)
