Điện Biên Airport → Dien Bien Airport

– Non-diacritic name, to harmonize with other airport names in Vietnam (see Category:Airports in Vietnam).

There was a renaming in 2010 to add the diacritics, with an edit summary about consistency with other Cà Mau renames, so this seems like a WP:PCM. —⁠ ⁠BarrelProof (talk) 20:36, 1 December 2023 (UTC)Reply

@BarrelProof: That's because they were not aware of the fact that almost all of other airport names are still diacriticless. The airport name should be consistent with other airport names, not with other city or town name. This move completely broke the consistency. For example, Buôn Ma Thuột and Buon Ma Thuot Airport, Đồng Hới and Dong Hoi Airport. Why did no one move these two titles to diacritics for consistency with the city names? So the solution here would be: either move all of the others to diacritics, or move these back to diacriticless. I'm fine with either. Đại Việt quốc (talk) 19:02, 2 December 2023 (UTC)Reply
