Requested move 9 May 2023

The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

The result of the move request was: no consensus. While the proposal attracted some early support, the argument in favor of the move essentially boiled down to the perceived awkwardness of the current title, an argument which proved to be contested. It was further shown that neither title would be strongly preferable to the other under WP:CONSISTENT. Finally, WP:PLACEDAB was cited in support of the move, but – while that guideline certainly permits the "Mykines (village)" format – it does not make a clear case as to why that format would be preferable to the current one.

In short, this was a discussion where both sides had comparable numbers and neither had a substantially stronger argument than the other. This leads me to find that no consensus emerged on whether to move the article. (closed by non-admin page mover) ModernDayTrilobite (talk • contribs) 14:49, 31 May 2023 (UTC)

Mykines, Mykines → Mykines (village) – Primarily to prevent having an awkward disambiguator. SHB2000 (talk) 11:18, 9 May 2023 (UTC) — Relisting. Skarmory (talk • contribs) 23:03, 16 May 2023 (UTC) — Relisting. CLYDE ^{TALK TO ME}/_{STUFF DONE} (please mention me on reply) 23:15, 23 May 2023 (UTC)

• Support per nom. -- Necrothesp (talk) 12:47, 9 May 2023 (UTC)
• Support. A merger with Mykines, Faroe Islands is also a possibility. 162 etc. (talk) 15:47, 9 May 2023 (UTC)
  • As a recognised settlement it passes WP:GEOLAND on its own merits. -- Necrothesp (talk) 17:05, 9 May 2023 (UTC)
• Support but use something like Mykines (Danish village) as Mykines, Greece is also a village. Crouch, Swale (talk) 16:13, 11 May 2023 (UTC)

Preferably Mykines (Faroese village) as Mykines (Danish village) implies that this is in Denmark proper (which is not the case). --SHB2000 (talk) 21:27, 11 May 2023 (UTC)

Mykines (village), Faroe Islands would be the standard form. I support this, as I had failed to realise that there is a Greek village of the same name. -- Necrothesp (talk) 14:22, 12 May 2023 (UTC)

Yes like Windermere, Cumbria (town) though that suggests putting the location first than generic class, I'd argue that to would be better at Windermere (Cumbrian town). Crouch, Swale (talk) 16:25, 12 May 2023 (UTC)

Relisting comment: What should the disambiguator be? Skarmory (talk • contribs) 23:03, 16 May 2023 (UTC)

• Mykines (village), Faroe Islands since Mykines may refer to:

Mykines, Faroe Islands, an island in the Faroe Islands

Mykines, Mykines, a village on that island

Mykines, Greece, a village in Argolis, Greece near ancient Mycenae In ictu oculi (talk) 07:32, 17 May 2023 (UTC)

• Oppose. Among the 118 entries under Category:Populated places in the Faroe Islands, only two use the form Kunoy (village) and Skálafjørður (village), while three others use the form Mykines, Mykines — Koltur, Koltur; Skúvoy, Skúvoy and Svínoy, Svínoy. —Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 06:10, 18 May 2023 (UTC)

  Shouldn't those ones be moved as well? The Commons categories for both Koltur and Skúvoy are at "X (village)" while Koltur and Mykines share a single one. Per WP:PLACEDAB the usage of the generic class seems more appropriate than a repeated location. Crouch, Swale (talk) 16:42, 24 May 2023 (UTC)

• Oppose A disambiguation being "awkward" is solely personal opinion. There's no indication that the repeated word is causing people WP:SURPRISE. See also New York, New York a repeated place name that is not only famous but used as a point of pride. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 18:00, 29 May 2023 (UTC)
