Socotra Governorate → Socotra Archipelago – Per WP:COMMONNAME Abo Yemen✉ 12:25, 10 September 2024 (UTC)
- Comment: the nom has not made any argument proving that Socotra Archipelago is the common name, neither in English reliable sources or otherwise. I found some sources which use Governorate [1][2][3][4] as well as others which used Archipelago [5][6][7] (see WP:BRITANNICA though). It may be worth nothing that sources are split between the use of Governorate and Archipelago, but I did find more educative uses for Governorate as opposed to the uses of Archipelago which were particularly used in travel sites.
