- Support all except the Mediterranean Region one. I'd support that too, but I'd first like it confirmed that the article is named in accordance with Turkish naming conventions (I would have thought Mediterranean Region (Turkey) would have been a more widely-accepted title).

- Comment The corresponding article was created in Dec. 2006 as Mediterranean Sea Region, Turkey and them moved later that month to Mediterranean Region, Turkey where it has stayed since. Category:Mediterranean Region, Turkey is newly minted, but follows the article. This link [1] would seem to indicate that the Turkish government favors Mediterranean Region over Mediterranean Sea Region as the English translation. As for ", Foo" versus " (Foo)", if we go by interwiki links, it looks like two of one, a pair of the other, with quite a few not bothering to diambiguate. Mediterranean Region is a redirect to Mediterranean Basin that predates the Turkish region article by over a year. Caerwine Caer’s whines 02:38, 24 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Should the article be moved to Mediterranean Region then? {{for}} template can be always used to point readers to the Mediterranean Basin. - Darwinek (talk) 08:23, 24 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- I don't think so. Cleaning up incoming redirects would be a hassle, especially if you also clean up Mediterranean region (note capitalization) which if Mediterranean Region were made the name of the article for the Turkish Region should be reset to point to the alternate capitalization, not Mediterranean Basin. Plus what about History of the Mediterranean region? It's doable, but would require a lot of work for what I see as little gain. Caerwine Caer’s whines 05:10, 25 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

- Actually, it looks like the only issue here is Category:Mediterranean region of Turkey geography stubs; all the others don't seem to have any dab in the category names, so presumably wouldn't need it in the stub cat names. For the sake of consistency with permcats, how about Category:Mediterranean Region, Turkey geography stubs per nom? Her Pegship (tis herself) 16:44, 2 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Agreed. It is the only one needing distinction as per above discussion. I think all categories here are ready for renaming. - Darwinek (talk) 23:21, 5 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
