message: Please provide reliable sources for your reason for renaming. to Yaarl Paanam Province. "Northern Province" is the name currently used in the country and it is the name that is well known. Unless sources can be provided soon, the article needs to be removed to it's previous location immediately. ≈ Chamal talk 01:36, 29 July 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Reasons for renaming 

message: :Yaarl Paanam Province, Sri Lanka → Northern Province, Sri Lanka — User:BlueLankan has moved the page which was originally at "Northern Province, Sri Lanka" to "Yaarl Paanam Province, Sri Lanka". His reason is that the government is going to change the name. I have done a google search for "Yaarl Panam" (and possible alternate spellings of the name) and have found nothing regarding a Yaarl Panam Province. No reliable sources and not even a blog mentions this renaming. There is nothing about this even in the government's own websites http://www.news.lk/ and http://www.priu.gov.lk/ . One of the recent news items in news.lk mention the "Northern Province" which proves that this is the name currently used. This move clearly violates WP:V and seems to be a rather good example of WP:CRYSTAL. All the sources in the article also give it as "Northern Province" as well, so I suggest a re-move to the original name of the article ASAP. ≈ Chamal talk 03:04, 29 July 2009 (UTC)
