replies: text: That's just plain idiotic. There is no such rule in the grammmar and this case is not even concretely covered in the article WP:HYPHEN. If that were the case, we would have to hyphenate half the English language: "old-age home", "third-party insurance","water-bottle holder", "wine-bottle cooler", "world-map publishers", "cotton-shirt manufacturers", "steering-wheel cover", "toilet-seat cover", "bird-flu injection". Besides, who needs clarification? are there people out there who might have thought it is "exchange rate-regime"? What would be a "rate regime"? There are cases where one might not be sure as to the lexeme coupling, such as in "city-bus driver" (driver who drives city buses) and "city bus-driver" (a bus driver that lives/ works in a city. "Exchange rate regime" is not one such case. Rui Gabriel Correia (talk) 22:43, 7 June 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: If it's any consolation, I for one agree with your view on this. There are times when WP:HYPHEN makes sense and should be applied, but I think it has been unduly applied to a number of finance, economics, and science articles. I have intended for quite some time now to adopt the phrasing and spelling that is prevalent in the academic literature for all exchange rate related articles, but I have been busy with family matters and haven't yet mustered the stamina to wrangle with the grammar clerics that will surely swoop down from the skies the moment the article undergoes a name change.

text: Sounds good to me. I saw a query and offfered an explanation, not understanding that it was actually a complaint or proposal in query form. Anyway most such renames can be handled quietly by waiting a few days between the query and the (explicit) proposal, and again between proposal and action. Quietly, not silently.
