Cardiff Council → City and County of Cardiff — Full name of authority, also current title seems awkward and is grammatically incorrect ("council" is common when presented this way) —81.104.175.145 19:14, 1 July 2007 (UTC)

*oppose.  Cardiff Council is the most common name by which the authority is known thus is in accord with WP Naming Policy.  The official name is mentioned in the first line bärlinerTalk 11:52, 3 July 2007 (UTC)

Section 2 of the LG(W) A 1994 that established the council:
(3) Each council for a county in Wales shall have the name of the county with the addition—
(a) in the case of their English name, of the words "County Council" or the word "Council" (as in "Cardiganshire County Council" or "Cardiganshire Council")''
As Cardiff is technically a county according to the schedule to the Act , Cardiff Council is indeed the official name of the authority.

message: :Having looked at the legislation and so on, the following seems to more accurately reflect the situation:
Cardiff Council (Welsh: Cyngor Caerdydd) is the governing body for City and County of Cardiff, one of the Principal Areas of Wales. The council consists of 75 councillors, representing 29 electoral wards.  While the county is properly styled as City and County of Cardiff,  it is more often referred to as the City of Cardiff (its pre-1996 style) or simply Cardiff.

message: Just a little point, but at the beginning of the page, the phrase 'County Council of the City and County of Cardiff' is translated as 'Dinas a Sir Caerdydd' but I believe a more accurate translation would by 'Cyngor Dinas a Sir Caerdydd' as the current translation only says 'City and County of Cardiff'.

message: Per the page move discussion in 2007 (universally opposed) I've moved the page back (again) to Cardiff Council. This is the WP:COMMONNAME for the local authority. Why someone thinks it more suitable as City of Cardiff Council when this isn't its full official name, I've no idea. Amongst other things it is in danger of being confused with Cardiff City Council, the district council which existed prior to 1996. Sionk (talk) 21:15, 10 May 2019 (UTC)

message: I've updated the seat totals in the info box following the 2022 election. 
The results table in the article lists the two elected as Common Ground as Plaid - I'm not 100% comfortable with this. What's the best way to show this? A new column? Likewise Propel is listed as an Independent.

replies: text: I agree, the two Pentyrch & St Fagans councillor were ostensibly elected as Common Ground and are reported in the results as such. Likewise Neil McEvoy isn't Independent, he stood for Propel. These are all Wikipedia teething problems in the immediate aftermath of the election, of course. I would be inclined to create separate columns for "Common Ground" and "Propel" (considering there haven't been any other "Other" councillors for decades). Sionk (talk) 14:16, 7 May 2022 (UTC)
