ChervonopartyzanskVoznesenivka – Using Google [1] [2], I found that the name "Chervonopartyzansk" is essentially nonexistent in English-language sources published after the name change in mid-2016. "Voznesenivka" is very rare too, but does actually have some mentions by reputable organizations like the United Nations and OSCE. I think we can say that either Voznesenivka is the WP:COMMONNAME - in which case it should be moved to that title - or, there is no common name, in which case it should also be moved to Voznesenivka, per WP:UAPLACE, which instructs us to use the official Ukrainian government names with the national transliteration system when a demonstrably more common name does not exist.

  • Support per researched nomination. The city is unquestionably in Ukraine, therefore the main title header of its English Wikipedia entry should depict its Ukrainian name. —Roman Spinner (talkcontribs) 06:43, 6 November 2023 (UTC)Reply
