I propose an article title change from Anû Kathâ Îpa to Bald Eagle Peak (or Bald Eagle's Peak)
edit- See: WP:COMMONNAME
- This is an English Wikipedia, as in the prefix: en.wikipedia.org
- Many sources quote the English mountain name (some don't note "Anû Kathâ Îpa").
- Most readers understand English (including First Nations readers)
- Without the accents ("Anu Katha Ipa"), a Google Search fails to find this peak (this may be correctable)
- Edit: Please see Mt. Everest for a good example of how WP handles native names...
I won't be troubled if this proposal fails, but I think it's worth a try for consistencty and ease of use. BrettA343 (talk) 00:27, 2 October 2020 (UTC)
Late edit: Please see the following media articles...
- Crag and Canyon - CTV News. BrettA343 (talk) 21:11, 8 October 2020 (UTC) Later edit: Have you seen this proposal @Blablubbs:?
- I mean, you are probably correct on all points, User:BrettA343, but... the name is *so* offensive, and after all there is a redirect from Squaw's Tit to the article so nobody should fail to find it, and we do mention the Squaw's Tit name, bolded, in the first sentence.
- Google Ngrams hasn't heard of either Anû Kathâ Îpa or Squaw's Tit, so it's a pretty obscure thing and hardly even has a common name as it's seldom written about except to talk about its name, I suppose.
- Considering the totality of the situation, I'd let it lie. Herostratus (talk) 12:40, 30 July 2021 (UTC)
