GNIS ref supports renaming to Sierra Pelona Ridge
editSee my post in Talk:Sierra Pelona Mountains#GNIS ref supports renaming to Sierra Pelona Ridge. The USGS GNIS reference (U.S. Geological Survey Geographic Names Information System: Sierra Pelona) for the article supports a title of "Sierra Pelona Ridge", not "Sierra Pelona Mountains". Though the article will continue to list "Sierra Pelona Mountains" in the text as an alternate name because a web search shows locals use both names interchangeably. I'm posting this note as a courtesy before submitting proposals to rename the article and category to match what the source supports. Ikluft (talk) 21:42, 23 October 2019 (UTC)
- This note was here and on the main article's talk page for a few days. Since USGS GNIS supports the name Sierra Pelona Ridge instead of Sierra Pelona Mountains, this is not expected to be controversial, and would be expected to be upheld in discussion if any occurs. So the renaming has been done for the main article and speedy renaming requested for the category. Ikluft (talk) 08:43, 27 October 2019 (UTC)
- The category speedy renaming request for Category:Sierra Pelona Mountains -> Category:Sierra Pelona Ridge expired due to an objection from an editor who I think had a misunderstanding of the speedy renaming WP:C2D criteria. But any objection blocks a speedy request. So that's over - we move on to the CfR discussion, which is now in progress: WP:Categories_for_discussion/Log/2019_November_1#Category:Sierra_Pelona_Mountains. While it should be obvious that an article and category should be named based on what its source(s) support, this CfR will still need at least some minimal participation by supporting remarks to meet the bar of having held a discussion about it.
