Placenames

[edit]

This is the English Wikipedia, and our articles are based on the common name in English not the official name, and this name should be used throughout the article, other than a brief mention of the official name in the opening line and the infobox.
We may, eventually, change the name, as we did at Mumbai, after about 10 years, but other articles, such as Bangalore are still under their "English" names, although the official name changed in 2006, as this is what English readers recognize.
This is standard across Wikipedia - we will not be changing Spain to Espana, Finland to Suomi, Vienna to Wien, Munich to Munchen or any of numerous other articles, where the English name differs from the "official" name.
