replies: text: Hey Kotare. That site is a Wikiclone,and their Three Kings article acknowledges its source as Wikipedia - hence the similarity. I removed the link to it since its the same info almost exactly. Kahuroa 19:07, 9 May 2007 (UTC)

message: The islands are situated on a submarine plateau, the Three Kings Bank, and are separated from the New Zealand mainland by an 8 km wide, 200 to 300 m deep submarine trough
in fact they are separated by 32 NM and surely the sea is far more deeper than 300 m !
::the text is a bit ambiguous - the width and depth refer to the actual dimensions of the trench and not to the distance between the islands and the mainland. Needs someone with access to the original source to rewrite. Kahuroa (talk) 18:03, 4 December 2008 (UTC)

The result of the move request was: Not moved. Consensus to use the double name which is official in NZ.   (t · c) buidhe 00:43, 21 April 2021 (UTC)

text: It appears this page was moved to its current title in accordance with WP:Naming conventions (New Zealand)#Dual and alternative place names. I think a requested move is necessary to gauge consensus for a move per WP:COMMONNAME. For sources that use the dual name see . – Lord Bolingbroke (talk) 03:06, 14 April 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: This one has a history of a bit over a year of lots of undiscussed moves; nothing on the talk page.  The right move would be to request a revert of undiscussed move to the status quo ante, and then discuss on the talk page whether to use the official name as article title or not. There's no justification to protect the current title presently. Dicklyon (talk) 23:23, 14 April 2021 (UTC)

The result of the move request was: no consensus. There is no momentum in favour of moving the page, but the oppose arguments aren't overwhelmingly strong. The opponents mainly cite WP:WIAN, but the nominator disputes whether the opponents' interpretation is acceptable, with no end in sight. (non-admin closure) — Ceso femmuin mbolgaig mbung, mellohi!

replies: text: Manawatāwhi / Three Kings Islands →  – Per WP:COMMONNAME and WP:CONCISE. Searching for Manawatawhi as a substitute for the dual name, as all forms of the dual name will include Manawatawhi, ngrams shows that Three Kings Islands is overwhelmingly the commonname. Google News shows the same result, with 25 results for Three Kings Island in the past year, compared to 6 results for any form of the dual name, all referring to the same story.
