What license is that under? it has no sourcing. Secretlondon (talk) 12:50, 3 August 2021 (UTC)Reply
  • Oppose Stone Bridge is very non-specific, and English generally doesn't translate foreign name of places. I don't know what the normal name is in English, but I doubt it's translated. Secretlondon (talk) 12:49, 3 August 2021 (UTC)Reply
  • Support I'm seeing usage of "Stone Bridge" in at least some reliable, academic sources, whereas I'm struggling to find any using the current title. We should be reflecting the most common use, to the extent that exists, in English language sources (which can sometimes be the translated title, and sometimes the original).--Yaksar (let's chat) 20:49, 3 August 2021 (UTC)Reply
  • Oppose. There are plenty of online references to both names, although nothing substantial. Given that's the case, I think it's better to keep it in the original language without need for disambiguation. -- Necrothesp (talk) 14:58, 11 August 2021 (UTC)Reply
