Tajikistan Football LeagueTajikistan Higher League – The Tajikistan Football League is the whole football league system in Tajikistan, including the lower divisions such as the Tajikistan First League and the Tajikistan Second League. The article is about only the top division, so should be renamed as Tajikistan Higher League to reflect its current name, "ВЫСШАЯ ЛИГА ТАДЖИКИСТАНА" [1], which according to Google Translate, is the "Tajikistan Higher League" Chanheigeorge (talk) 17:08, 12 March 2019 (UTC)--Relisting.   samee  converse  22:10, 20 March 2019 (UTC)Reply

  • Comment the league is known as 'Vysshaya Liga' ("Major League") by Soccerway, and 'Ligai Millii Futbol' ("National Football League") by NFT. Nominator has not provided any other English-language sources. GiantSnowman 17:20, 12 March 2019 (UTC)Reply
    • Comment The link at the Football Federation of Tajikistan calls it "ВЫСШАЯ ЛИГА ТАДЖИКИСТАНА" [2], which according to Google Translate, is the "Tajikistan Higher League". But other names such as the "Tajikistan Major League" can also be considered. Chanheigeorge (talk) 17:28, 12 March 2019 (UTC)Reply
      • Google Translate will not help us in articles title. What is the Official name of the league? Hhkohh (talk) 21:47, 12 March 2019 (UTC)Reply
        • Comment The official name of the league is "ВЫСШАЯ ЛИГА ТАДЖИКИСТАНА". Somebody who knows Russian or Tajik can probably translate it. Chanheigeorge (talk) 21:58, 12 March 2019 (UTC)Reply
          • Comment "ВЫСШАЯ ЛИГА ТАДЖИКИСТАНА" is just "Vysshaya Liga Tajikistan", so this more or less means "Tajikistan Major League" or "Tajikistan Higher League". See Vysshaya Liga for example. So either of the names is better than "Tajikistan Football League". Chanheigeorge (talk) 22:08, 12 March 2019 (UTC)Reply
          • Again, translating league name is unhelpful in RM Hhkohh (talk) 22:03, 12 March 2019 (UTC)Reply
  • Oppose as proposed. Google Translate should not be the basis for naming foreign language articles. ---- Patar knight - chat/contributions 21:02, 12 March 2019 (UTC)Reply
    • Comment Then it should be translated by somebody who knows the foreign language to obtain the name of the league Chanheigeorge (talk) 21:58, 12 March 2019 (UTC)Reply
      • Comment "ВЫСШАЯ ЛИГА ТАДЖИКИСТАНА" is just "Vysshaya Liga Tajikistan", so this more or less means "Tajikistan Major League" or "Tajikistan Higher League". See Vysshaya Liga for example. So either of the names is better than "Tajikistan Football League". Chanheigeorge (talk) 22:08, 12 March 2019 (UTC)Reply
  • Note This is another case between using English name vs using official name/common name Hhkohh (talk) 21:44, 12 March 2019 (UTC)Reply
    • [3] "According to the regulations, the team that finished in last place at the end of the season will leave the Major League." So an English source that uses the name "Major League". Chanheigeorge (talk) 22:26, 12 March 2019 (UTC)Reply
