Requested move edit

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. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the move request was: page moved as a technical request. -- JHunterJ (talk) 11:19, 23 May 2012 (UTC)Reply


Wikipedia:InverinInverinAn editor with very little Wikipedia history moved the page from Inverin to Wikipedia:Indreabhán. When I moved it back I didn't notice that "Wikipedia" was included in the title as part of the reversion. Now I cannot move the page from Wikipedia:Inverin to Inverin. The page has also somehow been disconnected from its talk page and it needs to be reunited with it. Thanks. — O'Dea (talk) 23:07, 22 May 2012 (UTC)Reply

Support - but in all honesty this looks like a technical move. Unless anyone else objects very quickly you might want to derequest and rerequest as a technical move. In ictu oculi (talk) 01:37, 23 May 2012 (UTC)Reply
Hmm, on second thoughts maybe it isn't. But either way, you might want to simply contact an admin to fix this. In ictu oculi (talk) 05:28, 23 May 2012 (UTC)Reply

Indreabhán/Inverin edit

Indreabhán is the official name of this village and the only name that appears on the road signs. Why is this antiquated anglicisation being given precedence over the village's actual name? Even in English Indreabhán is referred to as Indreabhán. --Ancatmara (talk) 14:18, 10 July 2012 (UTC)Reply
I agree fully with this. 79.97.64.240 (talk) 11:27, 2 January 2014 (UTC)Reply

When is this article going to be renamed to reflect official naming, and common usage here in Ireland. There appears to be resistance by some in Wikipedia to prevent the article names reflecting the actual situation in Ireland. It is boring to have to keep reminding these self appointed defenders of imperial English usage that things have changed and that Calcutta, Peking, Inverin etc. are no longer acceptable outside of a history section. Indeed, whatever about the usage of the first two examples above I can safely say there is no danger of confusion in renaming the article but there is in leaving it as is.

Article uses English name rather than the Irish one because this is English Wikipedia, in accordance with WP:IMOS policy. — O'Dea (talk) 23:56, 15 February 2021 (UTC)Reply
