Feel free to state your position on the renaming proposal by beginning a new line in this section with *'''Support''' or *'''Oppose''', then sign your comment with ~~~~. Since polling is not a substitute for discussion, please explain your reasons, taking into account Wikipedia's policy on article titles.

• Oppose this article is not just a list, it is about a former political post which is an encyclopedic topic widely use for Wikilink, it is likely to be expanded in the future. Rather than having another article with a list of the same topic, it is better to merge the list in this article as it is actually.Kingroyos (talk) 11:29, 31 January 2013 (UTC)
• Comment: The proposer seems to be missing the point that list articles are no longer required to be titled List of...... The present title is fine on that basis. Whether Opperhoofd is the best title is another matter. Skinsmoke (talk) 08:24, 1 February 2013 (UTC)

This is a better name

We use English terms for article names. Thus we have an article Kings of France, we do not use the French equivalent in the title.John Pack Lambert (talk) 17:43, 2 February 2013 (UTC)
