San José Public LibrarySan Jose Public Library – Consensus on various past requested move discussions is that the diacritical mark on the "e" on "Jose" should not be included on the titles of San Jose, California and its related articles. These past discussions include Talk:San Jose, California#Requested move 23 July 2016 and Talk:San Jose International Airport#Requested move 12 February 2017. The rationale is that the "e" without the mark is the common name, regardless if the spelling with the mark is the official name. This appears to be one of the last remaining pages that still has the diacritical mark. Zzyzx11 (talk) 00:31, 5 November 2018 (UTC)Reply

  • Support, based on WP:COMMONNAME and WP:ENGLISH. IMHO, using non-English-language characters in the title of a page in "en.wikipedia.org" - the English-language Wikipedia - requires passing a high bar; one that has certainly not been passed here.
