The result of the proposal was moved. I'm going to go ahead and implement Necrothesp's solution as well. --BDD (talk) 23:46, 28 December 2013 (UTC)

Schaumburg and Schauenburg → Schaumburg (disambiguation) – Standard practice for ambiguous words with multiple spellings is to use the single most common example as the title, redirect the others to it, and briefly note the variations in the lede. bd2412 T 03:24, 13 December 2013 (UTC)

• Weak support I guess you just picked one? Okay. Red Slash 05:50, 15 December 2013 (UTC)
  • I picked the more common usage, based on entries on the page. bd2412 T 17:02, 15 December 2013 (UTC)
• Oppose – malformed RM. The requested title is already occupied by an article. Dicklyon (talk) 08:35, 16 December 2013 (UTC)
  • @Dicklyon, I have revised the proposal to make Schaumburg (disambiguation) the target. Although there are places with multiple names (e.g. Saint Kitts and Nevis, there is, of course, no place named "Schaumburg and Schauenburg". bd2412 T 13:34, 16 December 2013 (UTC)
• Split into two pages (Schaumburg (disambiguation) and Schauenburg), each with links to the other. May be different versions of the same name, but are still effectively separate names. -- Necrothesp (talk) 14:00, 17 December 2013 (UTC)
  • I have no objection to that solution, but I note that after correcting links on this page there appear to be only two matches for Schauenburg. Cheers! bd2412 T 21:40, 17 December 2013 (UTC)

• On second thought, the easiest thing to do with Schauenburg is to move Schauenburg, Hesse there with a hatnote to Schauenburg Castle and the dab. Come yell at me on my talk page if you disagree. --BDD (talk) 23:49, 28 December 2013 (UTC)
