replies: text: It is fraudulent to claim that I proposed renaming the article. This is a deliberate straw man. You are twisting the discussion to avoid having to defend your position. I only said that the article needs to comply with WP:LEAD. If you wish to rename the article, propose changes to WP policies, or what have you, then make your proposals. But please stop violating WP:Point (not the first time). --Mcorazao (talk) 18:19, 3 February 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: I edited my post above that removed the reference of claiming you proposing the page move.  It appears that you only mentioned a couple of things in the edit summary for possible discussions.  I did not deliberately twist anything.  This talk page discussion was a result of your recent edit summary.  Whatever I read in the edit summary at that time sparked the messages above.  If I had my way, then I would prefer United States listed under United States of America, Greater Houston listed under Houston–Sugar Land–Baytown, Greater San Antonio listed under San Antonio–New Braunfels, etc.  However, I don't try to force these personal preferences.  I have pasted the following excerpts regarding the geographic naming conventions recommendations from WP. (1) The title (page name): When a widely accepted English name, in a modern context, exists for a place, we should use it. This often will be a local name, or one of them; but not always. (2) The lead: The title can be followed in the first line by a list of alternative names in parentheses: {name1, name2, name3, etc.}. Alternatively, all alternative names can be moved to and explained in a special paragraph of the lead. When a widely accepted English name, in a modern context, exists for a place, we should use it.  You should also remember that these and any other guidelines that you seem to point people in order to make a point are just guidelines.  They are there to assist.  It appears that you interprete these guidelines are rules that must be complied, which they are not.  They are just guidelines—a guide. —RJN (talk) 20:07, 3 February 2010 (UTC)
