Change article title to official name of Moshohori

The official name of this village is 'Моshоhоri'. That needs to be the name of the article. Politis (talk) 11:37, 16 January 2012 (UTC)

Then go ahead and change it! (You have to use the 'move' tab to move the article to his new name, since article names cannot be changed.) It is so simple... Just do it! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.131.242.77 (talk) 02:22, 7 May 2012 (UTC)

Vǎmbel → Моshоhоri – The current and the official name of the village is Моshоhоri/Moschochori (Μοσχοχώρι) [1]. --Relisted Tyrol5 [Talk] 02:25, 10 January 2013 (UTC) Vagrand (talk) 00:45, 31 December 2012 (UTC)

• Comment, and question - Μοσχοχώρι would normally be Moschochori, Florina in English, if the modern village is notable. The problem is el:Κρυσταλλοπηγή Φλώρινας doesn't mention "Μοσχοχώρι" which suggests that this "depopulated"(?) village might be more notable for its Bulgarian past than its Greek present. Can you expand a bit on the nomination please. Also el:Μοσχοχώρι Πιερίας corresponds to a different Μοσχοχώρι in Moschochori disambiguation page? In ictu oculi (talk) 10:46, 31 December 2012 (UTC)

After the renaming of the village in 1927 from Vambeli to Moschochori, the village was populated officially until the Greek cencus of 1951, where the village has no population. The cencus of 1928 gives 444 citizens (among them 171 male, 273 female) and the census of 1940 gives 488 citizens (among them 237 male, 251 female). All next censuses referes the villages as Moschochori (Μοσχοχώρι, officialy in Katharevousa Μοσχοχώριον) Also between 1913 (the year that the region annexed Greece) and 1927, the name of the village was Vambeli (Βαμπέλι) not Vambel. In Greek the transliterated words Moschochori and Moshohori are the same. The history of the village gives a mixted population of Greek speaking and Slavic speaking population. Many Greek partizans (Makedonomachoi) and many Bulgarian partizans (Komitadjis) were from the village.Vagrand (talk) 04:47, 2 January 2013 (UTC)

Vagrand, thanks for the information. Given that the village is now called Μοσχοχώρι, then would support Moschochori, Florina per Wikipedia:Greek#Transliteration plus Florina as there are 4 villages with this name. In ictu oculi (talk) 17:13, 4 January 2013 (UTC)

It's ok for me. If you want further informations (reliable sources), please ask me.Vagrand (talk) 19:49, 4 January 2013 (UTC)

The settlement was united with the nearby village of Krystallopigi in 1957 (in Greek) [2].--Vagrand (talk) 00:30, 6 January 2013 (UTC)

• Agreed, then support Moschochori, Florina - thanks Vagrand, I agree it's an improvement from Vǎmbel. As for your message you can probably contact User talk:Tyrol5 who relisted to see if he will close. Cheers. In ictu oculi (talk) 01:29, 29 January 2013 (UTC)
