Sudzha (river) → Sudzha River – Natural disambiguation which is common in English, a search gave me several hundred relevant ghits. This page has been boldly moved several times, see here. While the best name is the one I'm suggesting IMO, either way an RM will hopefully lead to stability. Andrewa (talk) 22:14, 29 August 2024 (UTC)
- Slow down – Per WP:NCRIVER, this seems like it might be the right title. It also says "Country-specific exceptions to this rule should be discussed within WikiProject Rivers and/or that country's WikiProject." Do you know of any such discussions? This RM could be it, if you notify the relevant projects. Dicklyon (talk) 03:34, 30 August 2024 (UTC)
- Is WP:NCRIVER a naming convention? It appears to be a Wikiproject page section which looks like one and should perhaps become one, and this RM would be a good place to start such a discussion. Andrewa (talk) 02:49, 31 August 2024 (UTC)
- Oppose. The reason we do it like this for rivers in non-English-speaking countries is that British English generally uses "River X" whereas American English generally uses "X River". Therefore, per WP:ENGVAR we use the parenthetical form as it is currently. -- Necrothesp (talk) 10:36, 30 August 2024 (UTC)
- Neither of these options you propose is the current form of the title, so shouldn't this be supporting a move? Andrewa (talk) 02:39, 31 August 2024 (UTC)
