– For the first 3 cases, the reason for renaming is because these are all districts, and district's article names should include the word 'District' in it, as stated in Wikipedia:Naming_conventions_(geographic_names)#Vietnam. For the 4th case, the province name 'Phú Thọ' can be omitted, since there's only 1 district named 'Phù Ninh' in Vietnam (the district in Quảng Nam Province is called Phú Ninh District), so it should not be confused.

Support – Per WP:MOS. As having writing article on geography myself, district need to be distinguished from its capital. Naming it simply as for example (Lộc Ninh) will lead us to think this place is not a district. While for Phù Ninh District, Phú Thọ, the article can be moved through uncontroversial technical moving request. Night Lanternhalo? 08:56, 23 September 2019 (UTC)Reply
