What are the rules to standardize mountain naming

Latest comment: 2 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

The article was moved from "Pingfeng Mountain" to "Mount Pingfeng" to standardize mountain naming. What are the rules?

For example, for the official rules of Canadian mountain names, if a mountain named after a person X, it is called Mount X (eg, Mount Victoria, Mount Dennis); if a mountain with some feature Y, it is called Y Mountain (eg, Castle Mountain, Cascade Mountain). "Pingfeng" (meaning "curtain") is a feature, not a person's name, so if to comply with the official rules of Canadian geographic names, it should be "Pingfeng Mountain", so does "Jade Mountain", etc (actually, very few mountains in Taiwan named after persons). This rule is much more consistent with what people used to in Taiwan. Just like people in Taiwan do not call Yushan as Mount Yu in English. 210.63.204.61 (talk) 20:17, 9 December 2021 (UTC)Reply
