Polish State Forests → State Forests —

Official name of the organization; State Forests is an unnecessarily capitalized redirect to the generic state forest stub. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk} 18:36, 23 March 2011 (UTC) _{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk} 18:36, 23 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Actually the redir target is a DAB according to its talk page (but not according to the page itself) and contains valuable content. Andrewa (talk) 03:20, 31 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Contested due to possible confusion with other State forests. Should be discussed. — AjaxSmack 22:48, 23 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose super generic title. 65.93.12.101 (talk) 09:26, 24 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- The proposed title is correct and supported by policy: Wikipedia:Naming_conventions_(capitalization)#Page_names_that_only_differ_by_capitalization. Once the article is moved, a hatnote will be added directing readers to the disambig, but State Forests should be the name of this article. In fact, I am going to redirect it here for now, and add a hatnote already (all policy-supported as well, if temporary till the name is fixed). --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk} 17:02, 24 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  - It should redirect to the disambiguation page. The reference calls it State Forests National Forest Holding. Do Polish governmental organizations have "official names" in English? That seems weird. Or is it only the translation that is used by the organization, and not actually official? The Polish State Forests also don't come up as being the common usage for the term when doing a google search, if anything, the disambiguation page should remain primary, since it comes up as State Forest for X which is a state of the US or Australia.

Oppose. State forests is a generic term that should not be used for this article. In the absence of an English term for the organisation the current title will suffice. -- Alan Liefting (talk) - 21:21, 24 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Rename to State Forests (Poland). I agree that the national identifier should not be used within the title unless it is actually used by the organisation, but some form of disambiguation is still required. -- Necrothesp (talk) 12:05, 25 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose but support move to State Forests (Poland) or similar. Andrewa (talk) 03:15, 31 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I guess State Forests (Poland) is better then the current name. But I have doubts state forest is anything but a disambig, and as such, should be at state forest (disambiguation). --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk} 00:46, 16 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Rename to State Forests (Poland) as the country name is really needed as a clarification. Mangoe (talk) 16:03, 18 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
