Yegoryevsk → Egorievsk — For example: Administration of Egorievsk, Europa Plus Egorievsk (Europa Plus), Weather in Egorievsk, Egorievsk, Moscow region, Russia, The English-German School established in January 2005 in Egorievsk, Egorievsk Industrial Zone, Egorievsk, Production of Kotofey children's footwear at Egorievsk-Obuv, Kronospan Egorievsk, Russia.

Russian 'E' at the start of a word is pronounced "ye" as in "yet". Anthony Appleyard (talk) 15:59, 12 September 2010 (UTC)Reply
- But official website of this town calls Egorievsk. SergeyTitov (talk) 12:59, 13 September 2010 (UTC)Reply
Oppose without further comparative evidence of usage in English (outside of local websites) since it violates Wikipedia's WP:RUS guidelines. — AjaxSmack 22:30, 12 September 2010 (UTC)Reply
- Kronospan, industrial zone and intermeteo is not russian websites. Dlc.fi call this town as Egorievsk. All russian websites calls Egorievsk (even administration of Egorievsk, this site have 2 languages: russian and english). About your link. No.3. The variant produced using the default romanization must be mentioned in the lead in parentheses after listing the Russian name. Example: Moscow (Russian: Москва, Moskva)...

  - Item 3 means that the default romanization must be mentioned in addition to the conventional name, with the "conventional name" being defined under #1 and #2. Disparate usage by various random website does not constitute a conventional English name.—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); September 13, 2010; 16:26 (UTC)
Oppose per WP:RUS. "Egorievsk" is by no means incorrect, but it is transliteration in a system different from the one we standardize on. The local officials can use whatever transliteration suits them; it is certainly their right, but it does not mean we are obligated to follow.—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); September 13, 2010; 16:26 (UTC)
