Changed name of page, but not page content

[edit]

Well, some time back, the page named "Trans-Caprivi Highway" was renamed to the "Walvis Bay-Ndola-Lubumbashi Development Road". But unfortunately, it seems that little change was done to the introduction to explain the "new title", whether it's "citations" or "notes"! For starters, the page says the route starts from "Rundu", while the article title says otherwise. Also, the last city in the title (Lubumbashi) is not mentioned anywhere apart from the "Route" section at the moment. The article's old name was "Trans-Caprivi Highway" & then the "article name" suddenly changed to have "Lubumbashi" mentioned in the title, meaning that something has changed and it needs to be reflected in the notes as well! So, this page needs major editing in the Introduction. Any suggestions on the construction & grammar? Chils Kemptonian (talk) 02:08, 12 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

So Far, I've also changed the "short description" from "road in Namibia" to "road in Southern Africa". But we still need to change the introduction to reflect what we mean with the "title of the page"!

We cannot have the title of the Page saying "Walvis Bay-Ndola-..." and reading that "It starts from Rundu"! Let's see how we can edit it. Chils Kemptonian (talk) 23:43, 18 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

We may also need to edit the "Infobox" there, since it has been proven that the road being represented in this article is not only in Namibia, but in Zambia and DR Congo as well. GeographicAccountant (talk) 07:48, 10 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
