Requested move 2 May 2019

The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

The result of the move request was: Moved — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 07:11, 10 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Guadalajara, Castilla–La Mancha → Guadalajara, Spain – "Spain" is a shorter and (for most people) more meaningful disambiguator than "Castilla–La Mancha". Every topic linked in Guadalajara (disambiguation) in connection to Spain also relates to Castilla–La Mancha, so... "Guadalajara, Spain" is as ambiguous as "Guadalajara, Castilla–La Mancha". The article is probably the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC among those in connection to Spain. Asqueladd (talk) 21:15, 2 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Question: Is there an existing naming convention for Spanish geographical names? -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 23:55, 2 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@King of Hearts: I am not aware of such convention. But if "Guadalajara, Castilla–La Mancha" is following some kind of naming convention within wikipedia, then Córdoba, Spain ("Córdoba, Andalusia"?), Toledo, Spain ("Toledo, Castilla–La Mancha"?), Mérida, Spain ("Mérida, Extremadura"?), Jaén, Spain ("Jaén, Andalusia"?), Santander, Spain ("Santander, Cantabria"?) and Cartagena, Spain ("Cartagena, Region of Murcia"?) are not following it. "Guadalajara, Castilla–La Mancha" looks like the outlier, if we compare this case to the most known cases of placename ambiguity of Spanish geographical names (for cities).--Asqueladd (talk) 18:17, 3 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Support then. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 13:33, 4 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Support per nom. The purpose of the disambiguator in this case is to disambiguate from Guadalajara, Mexico, not from other entities within Spain. — AjaxSmack 01:02, 4 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Support because there are no other Guadalajaras in Spain Red Slash 20:22, 7 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Investigate "river of poo"

Kindly investigate creidibility of the claim that the Arabic origin of the word conveys "river of poo" (lajara) due to presence of muddy river then. 2A00:5400:F007:F777:C053:AE8D:6504:1221 (talk) 06:05, 1 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
