Very good article, help with finding more sources, but should have different page name

This is a handsome creation about a beautiful place--a real addition to Wikipedia. I came here after seeing your request for feedback at WP:FEED. It has a lot of good web-based sources already, but you can find 34 sources (for example) in Google Books using this tool:

• Searching for "Ooty botanical" Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL

Wikipedia prefers article titles to use the subject's common name (e.g. Bill Clinton) when it differs from the official name (e.g. William Jefferson Clinton). I see that Ooty Botanical Garden redirects here. Would you object to making that "Ooty Botanical Garden" name of this article and having "Government Botanical Gardens, Udagamandalam" redirect to that page?

• Thanks a lot for taking time for the feedback. Either I have used up most of the sources or I am not able to find them now. I'll work on it. As for the name change, I would prefer to see the article with the present name. Also someone has already tried changing the name to Ooty Botanical Gardens, but it was reverted (see here). --Suraj (talk) 04:29, 29 January 2011 (UTC)

You reverted it yourself, didn't you? I will not change the name away from what you want; I am not so experienced myself as to be confident that the change is needed. It sounds like a wonderful place. Sharktopus^talk 04:47, 29 January 2011 (UTC)

• I tried reverting when i found out that the page was reverted back once. I tried finding the reasons for that and it seemed to me that the name Government Botanical Gardens, Udagamandalam suited it better.--Suraj T 07:09, 29 January 2011 (UTC)

year

'laid out in 1848' -the site reference for this statemaet is giving the year as 1847. The info box of this article is also giving the opening year as 1847. Which one is correct, 1847 or 1848? --Booradleyp1 (talk) 06:24, 6 September 2013 (UTC)
