The result of the move request was: moved. Done for better clarity, since there are so many Lake Georges in America that more granular disambiguation is needed. (non-admin closure) — Ceso femmuin mbolgaig mbung, mellohi! (投稿) 05:03, 21 June 2022 (UTC)Reply

– For disambiguation from each other and from other articles including Lake George Township, Hubbard County, Minnesota, Lake George (Anoka County, Minnesota) and Lake George (Cass County, Minnesota). Please also see similar recent RM discussion at Talk:Lake George (town), New York. —⁠ ⁠BarrelProof (talk) 16:12, 10 June 2022 (UTC)Reply

Support US cities may use comma disambiguation as common usage but being unambiguous seems helpful here. Crouch, Swale (talk) 10:32, 11 June 2022 (UTC)Reply
Support but I don't like the second proposed move of Lake George (lake, Hubbard County, Minnesota). It should be something similar to Mount Shasta, California (the legal city) and Mount Shasta (the mountain). Maybe just have it at Lake George (Minnesota) and have the unincorporated place at Lake George (community), Minnesota. (sorry forgot to sign this) cookie monster 755 03:05, 16 June 2022 (UTC)Reply

Lake George (Minnesota) seems very ambiguous. For Mount Shasta, I believe there is a WP:PRIMARYTOPIC argument that the mountain is much better known than the legal city of the same name, but I don't see that being the case here. —⁠ ⁠BarrelProof (talk) 20:13, 15 June 2022 (UTC)Reply
